Among the many kinds of bread for sale is their handmade matcha bread, where matcha green tea is kneaded into the dough. The complete menu at Sweet Corns includes lunch sets, hot sandwiches, pasta, and drinks. Most of their menu is also available for takeout!

Tokuhon Manju Honpo
Matsudaira-Area
Founded in 1946. This shop was named after Tokuhon Shonin—a Buddhist priest in the mid-Edo period who devoted himself to his practice—in honor of his achievements. The shop has been dedicated to baked manju buns since its founding. In terms of variety, the shop keeps it simple—just sweet, tasty manju, with a select few fillings. In addition to sweet white bean, there’s matcha, yuzu, and chestnut (available only when chestnuts are in season). The little buns are loved not only by Toyota locals, but also by travelers!
