Umi no Kumo

Umi no Kumo

I will introduce "Umi no Kumo".

This name means "Cloud of the Lake".

We can buy it in Saiundo.

Matsue has Lake Shinji and it is very beautiful with the evening sun.

Umi no Kumo represents this sight.  The red lines are the colors of the evening sun as it sinks down in Lake Shinji.  The white lines represent the clouds around the sun.

This Japanese cake has characteristics of Japanese and western style confections.

The red line is made of Saiundo's original bean paste.

The white line is made of sponge cake with butter flavor.

We can enjoy eating it with the bean paste's smooth taste and the sponge cake's moist taste. This is refreshing and not as sweet as I thought.  It is a delicious combination!!

Umi no Kumo is such a nice Japanese cake that is good-looking and good-tasting.

I recommend it as my favorite sweet which is an expression of Matsue my hometown.
