Japanese dessert
Sweet from Japan
Japanese dessert refers to sweet dishes from Japan, which tend to be less sugary than Western counterparts and often feature ingredients like red bean paste, mochi (glutinous rice), matcha, and seasonal fruits.
Traditional wagashi are artistic confections served with tea, while modern Japanese desserts include items like dorayaki, taiyaki, and fluffy soufflé pancakes: We shared a Japanese dessert sampler after dinner.
