100年以上の歴史を持つ郷土菓子「いが餅」

Igamochi, a traditional confection with over 100 years of history

「いが餅」は、黄色い米粒で彩られた見た目の美しさと、丁寧な手作業による製法が特徴です。
笹の葉の上に並ぶ3つの餅には、豊年満作・家内安全・商売繁盛の願いが込められ、餡（あん）には「安」をかけた平和への祈りも宿った山形県蔵王温泉の名物として今なお愛されています。

Igamochi is characterized by its beautiful appearance, adorned with yellow rice grains, and its meticulous handmade production method.
Three mochi arranged on a bamboo leaf symbolize wishes for a bountiful harvest, household safety, and prosperous business. The bean paste also embodies prayers for peace, playing on the word “an” (peace) in Japanese. This specialty of Zao Onsen in Yamagata Prefecture remains beloved to this day.
