At the opening party for the 10th anniversary event of the Vivienne Westwood Aoyama store, guests were given dorayaki (Japanese sweets) from Ishii, a long-established Japanese confectionery shop in Shibamata, Tokyo, branded with the brand's iconic orb mark.
Located on Teishokuten-sando, a popular tourist spot in Shibamata and lined with many long-established shops, Ishii (7-6-20 Shibamata, Katsushika Ward, Tokyo) was founded in 1861 as a kimono shop. The tea sweets it offered to regular customers back then became popular, and after the war, it reopened as a Japanese confectionery shop. Since then, it has remained a beloved shop for many years, beloved by locals and tourists alike.
The dorayaki features fluffy, hand-baked dough with a gentle egg aroma, filled with a generous amount of dainagon bean paste that has been carefully cooked for two days and nights. All ingredients are domestically produced, and no preservatives are used. All are made by hand with great care.

These masterpieces, which have inherited the traditional taste and techniques of many years, are so popular that they sell out one after another as soon as they are baked.
