Experience the Taste of Akafuku Zenzai in Tokyo!
Get ready for an exciting culinary event as Akafuku, a renowned confectionery company from Ise, Japan, brings its famous winter treat, Akafuku Zenzai, directly to the heart of Tokyo. This unique opportunity will take place at Mie Terrace, located in Nihonbashi, on February 14th and 15th, 2026.
What is Akafuku Zenzai?
Akafuku Zenzai, which made its debut in 1966, is a beloved winter dessert that features large adzuki beans, known for their rich flavor and delightful texture. Each serving includes these carefully cooked beans simmered to perfection, ensuring that their natural taste is preserved. The dessert is complemented by sweet, freshly grilled mochi, making for a comforting and delicious experience that warms both body and soul.
Originally introduced as Akafuku Shiruko, the treat underwent improvements and evolved into its current name, Akafuku Zenzai, in 1987. Since then, it has become a cherished seasonal offering, particularly during the colder months in Japan, and continues to delight patrons year after year.
