Gensui Shinno's time-consuming and skillful Japanese sweets packed into bite-sized pieces

Sho-no-Mizui has an elegant sweetness with a crispy texture," says Ms. Horibe of Wacoal, a proud Kyoto-based lingerie manufacturer that supports women's beauty. [The signature product of Murasakino Gensui, Matsunomizui, is made by pouring yokan (sweet bean jelly) into a mold one by one, layering Dainagon azuki beans simmered in honey and coating them with surimitsu (honey that has been ground and drizzled over). It is an elaborate confectionery made entirely by hand. When you put it in your mouth, the smooth yokan, the fluffy azuki beans, and the chewy surimitsu are in harmony, and the deliciousness spreads over many layers.

The individually wrapped packages make it easy to share at the office, and the small, easy-to-eat size is also nice," says Horibe, who also has a secretarial viewpoint. The fact that they last for about two weeks is also a point that makes them a hit. You can also add a seasonal touch with an assortment of dried confections or beautifully crafted candied candies. The purple wrapping paper with a water stream on it is sure to make the recipient feel elegant. Matsunomizui 15 pieces in a pack of 2,480 yen and Upeito (sugar candy) from 129 yen.
