Seikodo Sohonpo

4.0

This longstanding Japanese confectionary shop established in 1931 is located close to Yokohama Municipal Subway Gumyoji Station. The shop's signature Kannon Monaka wafer cakes are stuffed with either a yuzu citrus filling or an azuki bean filling, and were designated a Famous Confection by Kanagawa Prefecture in 1967. The shop's Kamakuraji three-colored large monaka wafer cakes, modeled after an oxcart wheel, won the gold prize at the 20th National Confectionary Exposition. The shop's bean jam rice cakes, whose recipe has been passed down for generations, are popular among locals as well as among visitors to the Gumyoji Temple as souvenirs.

老舗の和菓子屋

Reviewed : 2019.05.30

横浜市営地下鉄、弘明寺駅から地上に出たところにあり、のぼりがあるのですぐに分かる。アーケード街とは離れた、鎌倉街道沿いにある。人気の観音モナカはとても甘かった。
ゆずの弘明寺最中旨い

最中160円しますが、緑色の弘明寺最中が旨いです。ゆず餡で旨いです。ここは弘明寺の商店街ですから、弘明寺観音を描いた弘明寺最中が売りです。他にも和菓子沢山あります。
