Too much syrup (probably maple) not enough sakura flavor.
Other sakura anpan that I have tried from other places usually make their filling from white bean paste, then mix in chopped up salted sakura flowers and salted sakura leaves.
In Japan, mice "say" chu chu unlike the mice in the US that "squeak"...
The dried kaki was sweet and the dark chocolate was a nice balance.
And the kaki was super HUGE about the size of my palm!
What are you enjoying these days?

That sakura anpan sounds so delish, the one with the white bean with salted sakura flowers. I wonder if I could find some here?. Maybe I could make my own...buy the anpan or manju with white bean and slice it open and sprinkle some salted sakura flowers...Voila! hehehe
