two ladies kitchen

Two Ladies Kitchen is mostly renowned for their strawberry daifuku and assorted mochi.

We recently received these assorted manju (baked/steamed sweet bean buns) from my Aunties who went to Hilo.

Most of them were filled with shiroan (white bean paste) or tsubuan (chunky sweet (azuki) bean paste).

They were good, but only one that was the most interesting to us was the top middle one that was filled with purple sweet potato.

Thanks Aunties!

If you like purple sweet potato filing, Mitsubas on school st. does some amazing manju, which are called crumblies. Old time favorite for many.
