Tsuyama Roll: A Local Specialty Cake from Okayama

A delicious regional sweet made with the finest ingredients Tsuyama has to offer.

Developed in Tsuyama, Okayama Prefecture, Tsuyama Roll is a distinctive local dessert created through a collaboration between local farmers and confectioners. It celebrates the area’s rich natural environment and fertile farmland by bringing together locally grown ingredients in an imaginative, delicious cake.

The sponge cake is made with 100% Fukuhonoka wheat flour produced in Tsuyama, giving it a moist, tender texture that feels wonderfully soft on the palate. The fruits and vegetables used in the fillings are also sourced from local specialties, making each roll a taste of the region.
