A fusion of Japanese and Western style cafe sweets created by Mobomoga in the Taisho era.
A Japanese-Western eclectic sweet that can be eaten at coffee shops, combining toast and red bean paste. The bread is spread with butter or margarine, and the saltiness and fluffiness of the bread enhances the mellow sweetness of the red bean paste. Aichi Prefecture has a high consumption of red bean paste and a high frequency of cafe usage, and is loved as a place that caters to both tastes.
*Mobomoga = a word popular in the Taisho era, an abbreviation for modern boy and modern girl.
Origin
The female owner of Cafe Matsuba (currently closed), which was founded in Sakae, Naka-ku, Nagoya in the late Taisho period, came up with the idea after seeing students eating zenzai with toast dipped in it. .
Popularity
You can eat it at most coffee shops in Aichi Prefecture that have a toast menu. It has become well-known as a local specialty, and there is a wide variety of souvenir products such as cookies, rusks, and cakes with this motif.
In addition to the sandwich style where red bean paste is sandwiched between two pieces of bread, there are also topping style, self-serve style, and even types that are served on a griddle.
