Kibidango is a popular souvenir from Okayama. Koeido Honten (Koeido Honten) is the original creator of kibidango, a long-established store founded 160 years ago.
Founded in 1856, this renowned Japanese confectionery shop is located on the corner of the Chunagon intersection. Its flagship store, stylishly renovated in 2019, boasts a cozy space filled with soft light thanks to its timber-framed architecture that minimizes the use of nails. The shop also houses a tea room and workshop, making it a hub for showcasing the present and future of Japanese confectionery.

Their signature products are "Original Kibi Dango" and "Mukashi Kibi Dango," which are made using traditional methods. The latter is a masterpiece carefully crafted using glutinous rice from contracted farmers in the Takamatsu district of Okayama City. Their kibi dango is Halal-certified, making it easy for overseas visitors to try and make a perfect souvenir from your trip to Okayama. They also offer a wide selection of seasonal sweets, yokan, and baked confectionery assortments.

From JR Okayama Station, take the Higashiyama Line tram to Chunagon Station, just a short walk away.
