Roro Kurofune, a confectionery about a 10-minute walk from Izukyu-Shimoda Station, has just won the top prize at the National Confectionery Expo °˖✧◝(⁰▿⁰)◜✧˖°
The award-winning item is the Kaikoku Caramel Monaka.
It’s a personal favorite of mine: homemade caramel densely packed with walnuts delivers an irresistible bite.
I highly recommend it for anyone puzzling over souvenirs ✨
Although they are wagashi artisans, Roro Kurofune also creates sweets with a Western feel, and they offer seasonal limited items that make you want to keep coming back.
Another must-try is the wasanbon pudding.
Also fun is the Kuro-Mona, where you inject sweet bean paste into a crispy monaka shell yourself (the paste is added just before eating so it stays crunchy), and bite-sized cookies dusted with wasanbon sugar called "Koko Shimoda"... the recommendations never end 💦
The shop is lined with many other confections (≧▽≦)
When you visit Shimoda, please stop by and discover your own Roro Kurofune sweets!
