- The price is ¥680 (tax included).
Funabashiya’s kuzumochi is made by fermenting wheat starch with lactic acid bacteria for 450 days before steaming it. This unusual process for a traditional Japanese sweet creates the product’s distinctive firmness and elasticity. The company also continues to use a preservative-free preparation method.
The Halloween presentation keeps the dessert approachable for both adults and children while preserving the familiar combination of Japanese sweet ingredients. The smooth paste, jelly, beans and kuzumochi are designed to be enjoyed together, offering a gentle autumn flavor rather than an overly heavy dessert.
Founded in 1805 during the Edo period, Funabashiya is marking its 221st year in business in 2026. Its Halloween Anmitsu adds a seasonal visual twist to the shop’s long-running kuzumochi tradition and can work as either an individual Halloween snack or a modest seasonal present.
