What is Wasanbou sugar ?

The difference between Wasanbon-和三盆and Wasanbou-和三宝

 In Kagawa prefecture and Tokushima prefecture, there is rare sugar produced in only small parts of regions. This is usually called Wasanbon. Baikodo registered Wasanbou as the trade mark of Wasanbon products.

The ingredients of Wasanbou

Wasanbou sugar is made from a slender sugar cane called Chikusha. This sugar cane is grown in sandy soil of east area in Kagawa prefecture and in warm weather and climate. And it saves all nutrition in its stem without blooming, so it has unique flavors and umami in the stems.

Features of Wasanbou

Wasanbou has an unique flavor, good meltability in the mouth and light taste which the sugar doesn’t have normally. It has calcium and iron, and above all it is the highest grade sugar which is made by hand and has been keeping their traditional hand-made process. Wasanbou is made and supported by chosen crafts people’s hand work. From Wasanbou, please feel their passion and how wonderful the products are. You will be surely surprised and impressed at them.

How to use Wasanbou ?

If you heat Wasanbou, its unique flavor   might go away, but it can bring out UMAMI well. So you can put a small quantity of Wasanbou for making any filling, baked sweets, steamed sweets and many types of foods as the secret ingredient!
