Delicious sweets make people smile. Seeing our customers smile like this is our greatest joy.
To provide our customers with not only deliciousness but also peace of mind, we create our sweets with meticulous care, starting with the careful selection of ingredients. We seek out the finest ingredients for our sweets from around the country focusing on the abundant blessings of the local Saiki area.
We also make continuous efforts to learn the latest techniques to always deliver new excitement to our customers. Every day we line up our freshly-made products in our store based on our philosophy and desire to serve our customers truly quality products in the finest condition. We don’t cut any corners in our ingredients or our work. We hope to continue to spread more smiles with upstanding Umeda’s confectioneries.
At Umeda Sweets Factory we create an original in-house “ginjo-an bean jam”. These days there are very few companies that make their own bean jam, but at Umeda we only use our freshly-made jam.
A feature of this bean jam is that it is “kawahagi-an,” which has all of the bean skins peeled in the manufacturing process. We spare no effort in making this specially-made bean jam, giving it a faint grey color, light and gentle taste, and a refined flavor with no bitterness. At Umeda we call this bean jam “ginjo-an” in reference to rice polishing in Japanese sake brewing.
