Anmitsu and Mitsumame have been popular Japanese desserts for many decades.
They are made of small cubes of agar jelly, a white translucent jelly made from red algae or seaweed. The agar is dissolved with water (or fruit juice such as apple juice) to make the jelly. It is served in a bowl with sweet azuki bean paste or anko (the “An” part of Anmitsu), Akaendou-mame(boiled peas), Gyuhi and a variety of fruits such as peach slices, Mikan(Mandarin orange), pieces of pineapples, and cherries. Anmitsu and Mitsumamae usually come with a small pot of black syrup Kuromitsu or transparent syrup Tomitsu. You pour the syrup first, and have it with spoon.
Mitsumame is served without An the bean paste. Instead, there are more boiled peas, Akaendou-mame, than Anmitsu.
Anmitsu and Mitsumamae have few varieties. Cream Anmitsu goes with ice cream on top. Shiratama Dango which is rice flour dumpling is also commonly used as a topping.

Season Menu / 季節のおしな
Kakigori is a Japanese dessert made from shaved ice flavored with syrup. Popular flavors are strawberry, green tea and transparent sweet syrup. Some shops provide colorful one using two or more different syrups. Some pour condensed milk on top of it to make it even sweeter. It is nearly identical to a snow cone but can have a slightly rougher consistency and a spoon is almost always used. The traditional way of making Kakigori involves using a hand cranked machine to spin a block of ice over an ice shaving blade.
