Kikukawa Candy Shop
About
Located right near Hakone-Yumoto Station, Kikukawa Candy Shop is famous for its castella manju—sweet sponge cakes filled with smooth white bean paste. Visitors can watch the mesmerizing, retro automated machine stamp and bake these fresh treats right in the window. It is a delightful, quick stop to experience a decades-old local tradition and grab a warm, freshly baked sweet for your walk.
Insider Tip
Eat them hot on the spot! You can buy a single, warm manju for under 100 yen rather than committing to a whole box.
