“ANN” bean paste is essential for Japanese confectionery. We are making bean pastes in our own factories. We change how to crush and boil the beans depending on the type of beans　so as to bring out of the full flavor of each bean. In addition, we carefully consider which bean paste goes well with which confectionery, and then select the best one. When it’s with a fruit we choose a bean paste which can highlight the flavor of that fruit. If a bean paste is the main ingredient, we choose a bean paste of the fullest flavor.
