Before the full-scale examination season, Japanese sweets that support the passing of examinees have begun to be sold in Yamagata City.

It was a Japanese confectionery store in Iizukamachi, Yamagata City, which was founded about 40 years ago, that started selling "examination student support confectionery".

Every year at this shop, the "pentagonal" dorayaki, which is a pun of "pass", is branded with a branding iron, and banana cream, which is said to activate the brain, is inside. , We sell Daifuku with cherry blossom petals in the image of passing.

In addition, we have also started selling large dorayaki with a weight of 1.8 kg, which is equivalent to 24 ordinary dorayaki.



The large dorayaki is also pentagonal, and you can order one with either "Pray for Pass" or "Congratulations on Pass" written on it.



It is designed so that students and their supporting families can eat together, and there are already 10 or more reservations.



Fumiaki Tokaibayashi, president of the Japanese confectionery store, said, "I think that the family is working hard together to take the exam, so I made a large dorayaki so that everyone could pray for success. It's a tense day for the students. I think, but I want you to take a break with sweets and show your strength. "
