Gold leaf food

These are Gold leaf food we have now.

My husband and I ate these foods as dessert.
Gold leaf castella, Gold leaf Yokan, Milk jellies with edible gold flakes…

Are you worried about the taste?
Don’t worry. I never felt any taste.

Gold leaf castella from Kanazawa

This is Gold leaf Castella from Kanazawa City.
I got this as a souvenir.

The gold color looks so gorgeous and the castella were delicious!

Gold leaf Yokan

This is a Japanese dessert “Yokan” my mother got for us.
There are two layers, the bottom part is yokan and the top part is jelly and gold leaf.

If you have a chance to eat this, please prepare delicious green tea, too.
It would be a perfect match!

Gold leaf ice cream

You can find gold leaf ice cream in Kanazawa.

If you eat this, your mouth would be filled with gold.
Don’t forget to take a picture of it for a memory.

Do you know about “Kanazawa city”?
Kanazawa city is in Ishikawa prefecture in Japan.

Kanazawa is famous for the Gold leaf-making industry.
