A hot topic on social media ♡ "The hottest thing in Dazaifu right now" - the super luxurious "Amaou Strawberry Dango & Daifuku"
Hello♪ I'm chippachapus and I love going to cafes.
It's great to see so many strawberry sweets around this time of year.
In particular, I would like to introduce a shop that has a very popular sweet that I try every year without fail.
The shop is located on the approach to Dazaifu Tenmangu Shrine, making it a perfect stop for your first shrine visit of the year.
The two biggest sweets you can't miss when you visit Dazaifu!
"Amaou Strawberry Dango" (700 yen including tax) and "Amaou Daifuku Monaka" (700 yen including tax) will be on sale at "Tenzan Dazaifu Main Store" from mid-November.
*Prices may vary depending on strawberry availability.

Both are limited-time menus available until around spring. They are very popular every year, and there are often long queues in front of the shops on weekends.
Here comes a huge Amaou strawberry that doesn't fit in one bite!
The "Amaou Daifuku Monaka (700 yen including tax)" is a fairly large monaka, about the size of the palm of your hand.

I was most surprised by the size of the Amaou strawberries inside!
Amaou is a strawberry variety that represents Fukuoka. It's not only sweet, but also has just the right amount of sourness and is really delicious.
There are three types of bean paste available: Yame matcha, white bean paste, and tsubu bean paste.
The mochi inside is said to be based on the onigawara (demon tiles) that were excavated from the ruins of the Dazaifu government office, and it makes quite an impact.

Onigawara Monaka can be purchased any time of the year.
This is "Strawberry Daifuku" (500 yen including tax). This is also recommended for those who want to enjoy a simple strawberry daifuku.

"Amaou Strawberry Dango" is a combination of two Amaou strawberries and a dumpling of sweet bean paste.
"Amaou Strawberry Dango (700 yen including tax)" allows you to taste Amaou strawberry and homemade dango separately.

Here are two large Amaou strawberries! They go perfectly with the painstakingly crafted red bean paste dumpling in the middle.
You can eat them in the order of Amaou → dango → Amaou, so you won't get bored until the very end♪
There is also a "Mont Blanc Monaka" that is only sold in autumn.
Although it has been replaced by the Amaou series and is no longer on sale, the "Mont Blanc Monaka" (650 yen including tax) is also popular.

This product is sold for a limited time every autumn.
A luxurious mochi filled with white bean paste cookies, fresh cream, Mont Blanc cream, and more. I'm looking forward to this autumn's treats♪
Perfect for a foodie stroll around the charming Dazaifu Tenmangu Shrine area
Tenzan Dazaifu Main Store is located on the approach to Dazaifu Tenmangu Shrine, so it's also recommended for food tours.

This year, it is recommended to spread out your first visit to a shrine, so I think many people have not yet gone. Whether you are planning to go or have already been, the next time you visit Dazaifu, why not enjoy a stroll with a sweet treat from Tenzan Dazaifu Main Store in hand? (Text by chippachapus)
