Ajisai
Ajisai
Just like the hydrangeas that bloom vividly across Kamakura in early summer, this confection evokes the soft beauty of the season. The gentle sweetness of the condensed milk sauce pairs perfectly with the crisp, crumbly texture of the treat. Its name, Ajisai (hydrangea), comes from the way sliced almonds are scattered across the surface—resembling delicate flower petals swaying in the breeze.
A little bite of Japan’s early summer—sweet, delicate, and unforgettable.
