Create smooth, customisable white bean paste for wagashi, fillings, and decorative sweets
This premium Shiro-an (白あん) powder is a convenient way to make traditional Japanese white bean paste at home or in a professional kitchen. Made from 100% white kidney beans grown in Hokkaido, Japan, it delivers the delicate flavour and smooth texture essential for classic wagashi (和菓子) and other East Asian confections.
Shiro-an is a staple in Japanese pastry arts, appreciated for its mild, versatile flavour and light colour. This powdered form allows you to easily prepare paste to your desired consistency—simply mix with water and heat. Ideal for nerikiri, flower piping, steamed buns, and more.
You can control the level of sweetness or saltiness to suit different recipes, from traditional sweets to modern fusion desserts.
