Hokkaido Anpan Matcha – Japanese Sweet Bread with Matcha Bean Paste, 5 Pieces

Hokkaido Anpan Matcha is a traditional Japanese sweet bread that takes the beloved anpan to the next level. Matcha is worked into both the dough and the filling — creating a double-layered green tea experience that's fragrant, gently bitter, and subtly sweet throughout.

What Makes This Hokkaido Anpan Special

Most matcha anpan use plain dough with a flavored filling. This one goes further. The dough itself is kneaded with matcha, giving each bun a vibrant green hue and grassy tea aroma from the very first bite. Inside sits a smooth white bean paste — made with Hokkaido-grown white kidney beans — blended with matcha powder and green tea leaves for an elegant, layered flavor.

The Anpan Tradition

Anpan — sweet bread filled with bean paste — was invented in Japan during the Meiji era, combining Western bread-making with Japanese confectionery. It was famously presented to Emperor Meiji in 1875. Today it remains one of Japan's most beloved everyday sweets, found in bakeries across the country.

This version honors that tradition while bringing the refined flavors of Hokkaido matcha and premium white bean paste to the classic format.
