JR Tokai Food Service Co., Ltd. “Piyorin”

This adorable chick-shaped sweet is made using eggs from Nagoya Cochin, Aichi Prefecture’s prized brand of chicken. A rich custard pudding made with Nagoya Cochin eggs is wrapped in a fragrant vanilla bavarois, then coated with finely crumbled sponge cake to create its fluffy texture and signature chick shape. Each one is decorated by hand-from the wings and beak to the tiny comb-giving every Piyorin its own unique expression.

The event takes place on March 3rd and 4th, when red and white plum blossoms decorate the temple gate.
