About this spot

A sweets factory shop operated by Saitou Confectionery, maker of the famous Sanriku specialty "Kamome no Tamago" (Seagull's Egg). This beloved treat—yellow bean paste wrapped in castella sponge cake and white chocolate—is a standard Tōhoku souvenir enjoyed across generations. The shop displays everything from bestsellers to seasonal limited items, with exclusive sweets and freshly made confections you won't find anywhere else. At the café corner, you can relax while enjoying sweet treats, and a popular decoration experience lets children and grandparents alike decorate their own "Kamome no Tamago." This reliable stop at the midpoint of your drive lets you combine rest and souvenir shopping in one visit.

Tips

Located in central Ofunato City with free parking. The decoration experience has set operating days and times, so confirm in advance if you'd like to participate. For a full lunch, nearby restaurants serve seafood dishes—combining them with this stop is recommended.

Best time to visit

Approximately 1 hour 30 minutes required. The café gets crowded around lunchtime, so arriving early is reassuring.
