About Kibi dango

Kibi Dango is a traditional Japanese sweet made from millet flour, glutinous rice flour, sugar, and malt syrup, offering a chewy texture and mild sweetness. Originating from Okayama Prefecture, this dessert is famously tied to the folk tale of Momotaro, where it served as a symbol of sharing and companionship. While Kibi Dango is low in fat and free of artificial additives, its high sugar content makes it an indulgence best enjoyed in moderation. Millet flour contributes some trace nutrients like magnesium and dietary fiber, while glutinous rice provides a satisfying energy boost. As a plant-based treat, Kibi Dango is suitable for vegan diets, but portion control is key for maintaining balanced nutrition. This iconic confection encapsulates the essence of Japanese culture and tradition, making it a favorite for tea ceremonies or as a charming gift.
