Manju is a Japanese steamed cake, and it’s a traditional Japanese sweet.
These “Bunny in Love” Manju are filling with anko (sweet azuki bean paste). So lovely! It’s too cute to eat them.

When I drop in Ginza, I need to go Kimuraya bakery (and Laduree ;))!
Kimuraya is famous for anpan (red bean paste pastry).
They use malted rice like Japanese Sake for the dough since 1875,
and the most old recipe one is with salted sakura blossom on top.
I found the sakura anpan became a cutest cellphone charm!
Can you see the red bean paste in the charm? :9
