Izumiya

Japanese Confectionery
A Japanese confectionary shop standing right in between Shibata City Hall and Niigata Prefectural Shibata Hospital. This shop has been making confections according to the same unchanged, traditional recipes since 1890. The shop’s signature Goma Manju buns are made with high grade Hokkaido adzuki bean paste tenderly wrapped in pounded top class Niigata millet mochi. Made with great attention paid to how the mochi is pounded, the sesame seeds are toasted, and even the degree to which they are ground, from the time they are children local residents love these confections’ simple, unchanged flavor. The Kurumi Ganjiki, made with domestic walnuts known for their pleasant aftertaste coated in mizuame syrup and wrapped in fragrant sushi nori, is a traditional Shibata confection passed down unchanged since long ago. They are also known as “sazare-iwa.”

    老舗のお菓子屋さんで商店街にあります。ごま饅頭をたべましたが、ごまのおはぎのような感じで美味しかったです。ごまは、甘さ控えめですが、中のあんこがちょうどよい甘さでした。甘さがもっとほしい方のために追加の砂糖がついてきます。
  • 美味しい!

    城下町、新発田名物和菓子屋の中でも人気店で歴史があります。ごま饅頭が人気です。甘さひかえめですが私はちょうどいいです。甘いのが好きな人は小袋の砂糖をくれるので少しかけて食べて下さい。

    新発田に老舗の和菓子やさんです。城下町なので、たくさんおいしい和菓子店がありますが、和泉屋さんと言えば「ごま饅頭」です。饅頭という名前ですが、餡入りのお餅にすりごまをたっぷりまぶしたようなものです。翌日には固くなってくるので、すぐ食べるのがお勧めです。
