refined Japanese sugar(wasanbon/wasanbon)

This is one of the few domestic sugars produced by traditional methods in parts of Tokushima and Kagawa prefectures using a variety of sugarcane called chikuto as raw material. It is characterized by its fine-grained, pale yellow color, smooth texture, and elegant flavor. It has been an indispensable ingredient in high-end Japanese confectionery since the Edo period (1603-1867). The name is said to have come from the fact that white sugar imported from China was called “Karasanbon” (唐三盆).
