Premium Matcha Azuki Taiyaki Image Yonenoya Co., Ltd. (Representative Director: Shohei Murase, Headquarters: Nagoya City, Aichi Prefecture) will begin selling its popular product "Premium Matcha Azuki Taiyaki," which has sold over 200,000 units, for a limited time at Yonenoya stores nationwide starting April 24, 2026 (Friday).

While maintaining its popular flavor, this year we have further enhanced the aroma of matcha, creating a richer and more luxurious taste. Please enjoy the luxurious spring flavor created by the fragrant matcha dough and the elegantly sweet Ogura red bean paste. "Premium Matcha Azuki Taiyaki" features dough kneaded with rich Uji matcha, characterized by the subtle aroma of tea that spreads as soon as it is baked. Inside, it is generously filled with meltingly smooth matcha cream made from Nishio matcha from Aichi Prefecture and carefully selected Ogura red bean paste.

This year, by reviewing the matcha blending balance, the flavor has evolved to be even more fragrant and profound. With the crispy thin crust, the bitterness of matcha, the creamy melt-in-your-mouth texture, and the gentle sweetness of Ogura red bean paste are exquisitely harmonized. With a satisfying taste that is not overly sweet, it is a recommended item for Japanese sweets lovers.

Recommended ways to enjoy ・Enjoy it outdoors while feeling the fresh greenery In the pleasant breezy season, you can easily enjoy it as a companion for parks or walks. ・For a rewarding Japanese sweets time It creates a luxurious moment of relaxation during work or housework. ・As a seasonal souvenir Its limited-time specialness makes it perfect for small gifts.

History of Yonenoya Yonenoya was founded in 1948 at the east exit of Meitetsu Iwakura Station. While "O-yone-san" (O-yone Murase) worked as a railroad crossing guard and bicycle attendant, she offered dango and okonomiyaki to hungry children and people returning from work, and her "warm deliciousness" became famous, leading to the birth of Yonenoya.

Origin of Yonenoya ■ Company Profile Operates 188 take-out specialty stores, mainly "Yonenoya" for dango, taiyaki, and takoyaki. In 2020, it expanded into Chengdu, China, and also developed a new type of izakaya, "Takohai Yonenoya," where customers can enjoy takoyaki and highballs. In April 2021, "O-yone Cafe" and "Yonenoya," a luxury chewy white bread specialty store focusing on additive-free ingredients, opened their first stores on the street known as "Yonenoya Street" at the east exit of Iwakura Station, Aichi Prefecture. In July 2023, "Y (Wai)," a Nagoya-based Japanese-style lasagna specialty store produced by Chef Hidekazu Shinohara, who was selected as one of the world's top 100 chefs in the US magazine "who's who:chefs," opened at Kinshachi Yokocho next to Nagoya Castle.
