Inzaku

Inzaku is a Japanese term that can refer to several things, most commonly a type of traditional Japanese confection or sweet.

They are frequently enjoyed with green tea and are a common sight at tea ceremonies and festivals. The specific ingredients and preparation methods for inzaku can vary widely, leading to a diverse range of flavors and textures.

Beyond confections, the word inzaku can also appear in other contexts. In some instances, it might be used to describe a type of small, decorative object or charm. These could be made from various materials and might hold symbolic meaning. The precise meaning of inzaku is therefore dependent on the context in which it is used. Without further clarification, it is most often understood as referring to the sweet treats.
