A GIFT FROM IMPERIAL HOUSEHOLD AGENCY
The Imperial Household Agency gave us something that money can't buy. "Kikuyaki Zangetsu (Remaining Moon with Chrysanthemum Seals), a special Japanese cake with the Imperial Chrysanthemum Crest.
The Japanese character "ha" on the back of the box means that these cakes are prepared by Tokyo's famous Hanazono Manju confectionery, which has more than 170 years of history. They say if the stamp is "to", it means Toraya.
お金では買えないものを宮内庁が贈ってくれた。菊のご紋章をあしらった特別な和菓子、「菊焼残月」。
