A big hit among Japanese customers!
Kuze Fuku & Sons' Red Bean Spread is our #1 top seller in Japan at online shopping sites in the jams and spreads category. And at our retail stores, it has sold 450,000 jars in one year.
With its sweet flavor and wholesome ingredients, it is a hit with customers of all ages.
Red Bean Spread has also been the subject of many TV, social media, and magazines such as "Mart," which is sold over 14 thousands copies a month. The trend is getting higher and higher each month.
Its popularity is rooted in its history. Commonly known as "an-butter", it has its origins in the city of Nagoya, in Japan, where in 1921 a cafe began offering anko spread on toast with butter and a hard-boiled egg. It quickly became a popular order and soon spread to the surrounding regions. Today, along with this rising popularity, our Red Bean Spread has gone nationwide in Japan and is becoming known internationally as well.
For example, our Red Bean Spread has been a popular subject of inquiry among travelers who bought the product in Japan, enjoyed it in their home country, and hope to purchase more. This pattern of inquiries also influenced the decision to bring Red Bean Spread to the US market.
I tried Red Bean Spread in the store during my trip to Japan. It was amazing, so I bought some jars and took them home to the US. Now they are all gone and I want to get more!

Product Background
A crucial element of this product is the addition of fresh butter to the recipe, giving the spread a smooth, creamy texture and flavor that goes well with the rich flavor of azuki beans.
This inseparable combination -- our "cool japan" azuki with immensely popular butter -- results in a traditional, yet amazingly delicious spread that will become a welcome start to your day!
Kids will love it, too!
Our Red Bean Spread is created with no margarine or shortening, instead using real butter, with a rich, creamy taste. This makes it both tasty and safe for children to enjoy.
