I tried to eat and compare "Heike pie" and "Genji Pi" as contemporary Genpei battle

Headline news on February 15Picked up inMitsunari productof"Heike pieI found it at the supermarket (reference price 258 yen), so I bought it. This "Heike pie" is making Mita Sansei making heart-shaped pie "Genji Pie". It is not a pakuri product but a sister product of our company. In the confectionery world "Mushroom Mountain" and "Takeo no Kita" war "Mushroom bamboo war" is enthralling with the story, but this product is straightly becoming "Genpei Battle".

Package looks like this, Bourbon at the sweets shopRumandoPurple that seems to stand out with.


I tried aligning with Genji Pie. The package is somewhat larger than the Heike pie.


On the side, the origin of the name of Heike pie is listed. He said that he regarded the shape of sweets as "a flat shield receiving Genji's released arrow". Raisins seems to be imagining after having received several arrows.


On the reverse side is written "It is easy to break into two and easy to eat", but it is not easy for the shield to break.


Raw materials etc.


The energy per piece is 76 kcal.


There are nine in total. When two people eat, a battle may be brought up fighting the last one.


Genji pie is included per bag, but Heike pie is one per bag.


Be careful when taking out, as the surface cracked zamera will stick to the bag.


Raisins are about 6 to 9 rides per pie.


It is behind the pie. There is a perforation line in the middle and you can divide it by two by hand along this line. I was worried about breaking it by hand ... ... but the fabric on the surface is moist and it can be cracked and broken without scattering as it is hardened by Zarame.


It is slightly big to eat in a bite, so it is easier to eat breakfast, but raisins did not divide well.


It is inside. Dough is layered on many layers.


I tried it with Genji Pie. Heike pie is totally moist. For those who like pyroclasp pyrique pie as a whole it may seem chic. Also, since the flavor of the raisin is faintly felt, people who like raisins recommend that they put some of the grains together into the mouth at once. As a general comment, both taste and texture have less impact than Genji Pi, which is a bit disappointing.


A conflict like 'Mushroom bamboo shoots' happens because both winners are as good as they are earnest enthusiastic fans. If Heike pie can not get enough support to line up Shoulder with Genji Pie, Heike is going to lose according to historical fact. Rather, since the Heike is losing in the Genpei battle, why did Genji and Heike be aligned with Genji?


By the way, I think people who "have seen somewhere" do not like sweets. When I contacted Mitsubishi, I heard that this Heike pie changed the "raisin pie" which had been on sale earlier due to the name of this year's NHK Taiga Drama. The color usage of the package is very similar.
