New Year's Celebration 新年の祝い菓子 ますね 【京都】

Happiness in a small box

This is one of Japanese traditional confectionery for celebrating the New Year.

I bought a box contains Rakugan (dry confection) and jelly.

Each shapes are inspired by nature or lucky charms: 
Mt.Fuji, plum, bamboo, daffodil, bag of rice and so on.

Usually, they are in a beautiful paper box like this picture.
Many wishes are in this small box.
I always feel as if I opened a treasure box!

I bought this at "Masune", Kyoto.
It's on Sanjyo Street near Teramachi Street. 
How about visiting there when you go to Nishiki Market?
