Mochigashi Kashihara is a Japanese sweets shop with its main store in Hiroshima City that is loved by locals. It is especially famous as the originator of "Hassaku Daifuku," which uses hassaku, a specialty of Innoshima, and its unique flavor has captivated many people. The refreshing acidity and slightly bitter taste of hassaku harmonizes with the gentle sweetness of the white bean paste, creating a one-of-a-kind deliciousness. It is also a popular Hiroshima souvenir, and there is a constant stream of people from outside the prefecture coming to buy it.
Kashihara's Hassaku Daifuku is made of soft mochi rice cake, sweet white bean paste, and whole juicy hassaku pulp. The refreshing sourness and unique astringency of hassaku are in perfect harmony with the moderate sweetness of the bean paste, creating a special harmony that spreads in your mouth. This unique combination is the reason why it has been popular with many people for many years. In addition to hassaku daifuku, depending on the season, daifuku made with seasonal fruits such as whole mandarin daifuku and strawberry daifuku are also available, so you can discover new flavors every time you visit.

Kashihara is a pioneer that created hassaku daifuku, and its taste is unmatched. In addition to being particular about quality, they are also actively working on developing new daifuku while maintaining traditional manufacturing methods. The appeal of the store is that you can purchase freshly made daifuku directly from the store, and the best recommendation is to taste it on the spot. For those who live far away or find it difficult to visit the store in person, the official website also offers mail order, so you can enjoy the taste from anywhere in the country.

In addition to the main store in Hiroshima City, you can also purchase it at sales outlets such as Ekie Hiroshima at JR Hiroshima Station and Miyajima SA (inbound lanes, Saturdays, Sundays, and holidays), as well as the Fukuyama Service Area (inbound and outbound lanes) on the Sanyo Expressway. This means you can easily get your hands on the famous Hassaku Daifuku even while driving, making it a perfect souvenir. Please try the traditional taste of "Mochigashi Kashihara", which has long been loved by locals.
