Okayama > Kurashiki > Dessert Tomato
Momotaro tomatoes are among Japan’s best-known tomato varieties. They are prized for their refreshing balance of sweetness and acidity, substantial weight, and firm skin and flesh that hold their shape even when fully ripe. These qualities also help them keep well.
Dessert Tomato takes this popular tomato and transforms it into a unique sweet treat, using the fruit whole. The tomatoes are grown by Miyake Farm in Kawakami Town, Takahashi City, Okayama Prefecture, using special cultivation methods that rely primarily on organic fertilizers. Only top-grade tomatoes are selected, allowing their natural flavor to shine in a delicate jelly.
With its smooth, jelly-like texture and fresh tomato flavor, Dessert Tomato is an appealing choice when the summer heat leaves you with little appetite. It offers a light and refreshing way to enjoy the natural taste of carefully cultivated tomatoes.
The dessert is made without artificial coloring or flavorings, making it a distinctive local specialty for travelers looking to discover Okayama’s creative food culture.
