According to many websites, this sweets – we call “sweet potato (cake)” – are originally from Japan.

This “sweet potato (cake)” product has some custard cream inside.

According to the explanation on the package, it’s better cool but I prefer to heat it in a microwave for some seconds. It gets softer and more smooth when I heat it.
