Minato Seika's soy-cream daifuku is a product to explore if you are looking for Japanese sweets with dietary information you can check. Food Diversity.today reports that the product is made without animal-derived ingredients or alcohol and identifies onetable as a supplier.

Before you go

The article describes it as vegan and halal-friendly, but does not identify a certifying body. Ask the seller for the current ingredient list and any certification before ordering. Also check storage instructions and delivery timing if you intend to receive it at accommodation. Salam Tokyo has not tasted the product or verified its production arrangements.

The current Sweet Farm description mentions roasted tofu, apple, raisins and celery. An older official Q&A discussed a vegan Earthy Nutty Crunchy salad, but that name was not in the current catalog we reviewed. We therefore do not carry its vegan claim onto Sweet Farm.

WithGreen: vegetables, dressing and the complete salad bowl

The current menu’s all-vegetable bowl lists vegetables such as carrot, daikon, tomato and cabbage, with a recommended lemon dressing. This list does not settle every seasoning or dressing ingredient. The site asks customers to discuss honey and allergens with staff.
