When I was young I
had a sweet tooth, but as I have gotten older, I prefer savory food more. I haven't
heard about this cute confection before until DH brought these
back from Japan. Tokyo Banana [東京ばな奈] is a soft sponge cake, filled with banana custard
cream. The sweetness of this custard cream suits me just fine. This confection is
a perfect gift for family, friends and suitable for elderly too (I think :>).

Kurumie (Oshie) craft is one of Japanese artwork with long history. The
Japanese paper using for Kurumie is Japanese paper called Chiyogami having a
beautiful pattern. The past Japanese's shapes are depicted using Chiyogami and
sponge. Kurumie is made by handwork one by one. So, the pattern and color of
Chiyogami and the design in Shikishi differ subtly one by one. Kurumie is the
Japanese artwork with warmth. Enjoy the beauty and the spirit of Japanese
artwork.
