*About Funabashiya*
This Kanto-style Kuzumochi shop was founded in 1805 during the Edo period and will celebrate its 219th anniversary in 2024. Funabashiya’s Kuzumochi is made by fermenting wheat starch with lactic acid for 450 days and steaming it [the only fermented food in Japanese sweets]. The long period of lactic acid fermentation gives it its unique texture and elasticity. In addition, because we want to deliver natural products to our customers as they are, we continue to focus on natural manufacturing methods that do not use preservatives. Traditional Japanese sweets, which are fermented foods and contain no additives, are currently attracting attention from health-conscious people. *About details about this release*
