Homemade sweets with black sugar syrup: 15 exquisite recipes

Three ingredients! Enjoy making "Kuzukiri" at home.

Chewy and delicious! Kuzumochi, a classic Japanese sweet.

Japanese-style panna cotta with brown sugar syrup and matcha

Easy to make in the microwave! Soy milk pudding

Crispy and delicious! Banana spring rolls

Black sugar syrup sweets that can be enjoyed in both Japanese and Western styles.

We offer a wide variety of drinks and cakes, so you're sure to find something you like! Please give us a try.

Easy! Soy Milk Kinako Milkshake

First up is a soy milk and kinako (roasted soybean flour) milkshake. It's easy to make – just blend it in a blender. The fragrant flavor of kinako, which pairs well with brown sugar syrup, is enhanced by the creamy soy milk and egg yolk, resulting in a rich and delicious taste! The rich sweetness of the brown sugar syrup complements it perfectly.

Since kinako (roasted soybean flour) is difficult to mix, make sure to blend it thoroughly in a blender. Topping it with kinako and brown sugar syrup at the end enhances the flavor and makes it even more delicious. You can also try variations by using milk instead of soy milk, or by adding bananas or the popular tapioca pearls.

The irresistible bouncy texture! Easy warabi mochi

You can make chewy warabi mochi using just potato starch, sugar, and water, without using warabi mochi flour. The cool warabi mochi, rich brown sugar syrup, and fragrant kinako (roasted soybean flour) create an undeniably delicious combination! It's also great because you can make it whenever you want. It's also delicious if you use milk instead of water.

Put the ingredients in a pot and heat over low heat, stirring continuously with a spatula. Once the dough becomes translucent, remove from the heat and continue stirring on a damp cloth. Once the dough comes together, cool it in ice water. Tear it into pieces by hand and arrange on a plate. Serve with plenty of brown sugar syrup and kinako (roasted soybean flour).

Three ingredients! Enjoy making "Kuzukiri" at home.

Why not try making authentic kuzukiri at home using kudzu starch and water? You can easily enjoy kuzukiri at home. The smooth, slippery texture of the kuzukiri combined with the rich sweetness of brown sugar syrup makes for a delicious treat. It's perfect for hot days, so please give it a try!

Because kudzu starch tends to clump together and doesn't dissolve easily, strain it once before mixing it with water. Also, since it occasionally contains impurities such as straw, straining it once after dissolving it in water will result in a smoother finish.

You can also make the classic Japanese sweet, "kuzumochi," at home. Kuzumochi, which goes very well with brown sugar syrup and kinako (roasted soybean flour), is made in the Kansai style using only kudzu starch, but the Kanto style, which adds potato starch and cake flour, has a milky white color and a chewy texture. If you use a steamer, you can make authentic kuzumochi at home.

To make kuzumochi, mix the ingredients together, strain them through a tea strainer, and put them in a pot. Heat over low heat and stir quickly. Once it reaches a consistency where clumps stick to the wooden spatula, remove from the heat and continue stirring. It's a lot of work, but the result is exceptionally delicious! You can also make it by putting water in a frying pan instead of using a steamer.

This panna cotta, made with milk and cream for a smooth texture, is transformed into a Japanese-style dessert using brown sugar syrup and matcha! The slightly bitter matcha and rich brown sugar go together wonderfully. It's also easy to make, as you just mix the ingredients and chill until set.

Turn off the heat just before it boils, then add the softened gelatin and dissolve it. Be careful not to let it boil, as this will make it difficult for the gelatin to set.

This soy milk pudding is easy to make – simply mix the ingredients and heat in the microwave. Using brown sugar syrup instead of caramel sauce makes it even easier to enjoy. The rich, sweet brown sugar syrup perfectly complements the creaminess of the soy milk! It also pairs well with puddings that have added matcha powder or pumpkin powder.

Beat the eggs well to avoid creating foam, then add the sugar, vanilla extract, and soy milk in that order, mixing well after each addition. Straining the mixture through a sieve before pouring it into a heatproof dish will result in a smooth pudding. The best part is that you can make it in the microwave whenever you want!

Crispy and delicious! Banana spring rolls

Wrap bananas, kinako (roasted soybean flour), and kuromitsu (brown sugar syrup) in spring roll wrappers to create sweet dessert spring rolls! The combination of hot, gooey banana, kinako, and kuromitsu that bursts out from the crispy wrapper is simply irresistible! They're quick to make and can be enjoyed warm, making them perfect for a snack.

Simply slice a banana, mix it with kinako (roasted soybean flour) and brown sugar syrup, wrap it in spring roll wrappers, and deep-fry it. The key is to use two spring roll wrappers! You can enjoy the combination of the soft, gooey banana and the crispy spring roll texture at the same time. Please give it a try!

Sweet potato, brown sugar syrup, and kinako (roasted soybean flour) bread pudding

Brown sugar syrup and sweet potatoes are a perfect match! While a moist, baked bread pudding is delicious with maple syrup, using brown sugar syrup gives it a rich, intense sweetness that makes it incredibly tasty. It's quite filling, so it's recommended not only as a snack but also as a light meal.

Bread pudding is popular because it's easy to make; all you have to do is soak bread in egg mixture and bake it in a toaster oven. After soaking the bread in the egg mixture, cover it with plastic wrap and leave it in the refrigerator for about 10 minutes to allow the mixture to soak all the way through and result in a moist and delicious pudding. The finishing touch of brown sugar syrup and kinako (roasted soybean flour) is a perfect match and makes it even tastier!

Perfect for entertaining! Matcha and brown sugar syrup kinako parfait

A rich ice cream made with fragrant matcha and cream cheese, topped with brown sugar syrup and kinako (roasted soybean flour), creates a stylish parfait that looks like something you'd find in a restaurant! Its beautiful light green color makes it perfect for entertaining guests or as a party dessert.

Whip the heavy cream until stiff peaks form before mixing it in for a smooth and elegant texture. When combining the mixed cream with the other ingredients, add it little by little and mix with a rubber spatula to prevent lumps. Rich ice cream and brown sugar syrup and kinako (roasted soybean flour) are a perfect combination!

Layer them for a gorgeous look! Chewy pancakes made with glutinous rice flour.

This Japanese sweet features matcha-flavored pancakes made with pancake mix, served with sweet red bean paste and brown sugar syrup. Adding glutinous rice flour gives them a chewy texture that pairs well with the sweet red bean paste and rich brown sugar syrup. Topping them with whipped cream or ice cream is also recommended.

Mix the matcha powder thoroughly with the pancake mix before adding the other ingredients to create a smooth, even batter. Pancakes that are about palm-sized are easy to decorate and eat. A sprinkle of powdered sugar on top adds a touch of elegance.

Easy to make in a rice cooker! Black sugar syrup and kinako (roasted soybean flour) cheesecake

This popular cheesecake, which can be made in a rice cooker without an oven, has been given a Japanese twist by adding brown sugar syrup and kinako (roasted soybean flour). Just mix the ingredients and leave the rest to the rice cooker! This hands-off dessert is perfect for everyday snacks, and is also recommended for parties and entertaining guests.

Using pancake mix is ​​easy and less prone to failure, so I recommend it. This rich cheesecake uses brown sugar instead of regular sugar and has kinako (roasted soybean flour) added, and the rich flavor of the brown sugar syrup at the end is irresistible! Please try this unique Japanese-style cheesecake.

Addictive! Homemade Karinto Manju (fried dough bun)

You can also enjoy homemade karinto manju (fried sweet buns) with a crispy exterior. Adding cream cheese to the red bean paste filling creates a sweet and salty flavor that's sure to be addictive. It takes some effort to steam and then fry the buns, but being able to eat these exquisite, freshly made Japanese sweets is pure bliss!

After kneading the ingredients for the bun dough well with a rubber spatula, divide it into 6 equal portions and place them on a floured cutting board, then roll them out thinly with a rolling pin. Fill with red bean paste and cream cheese, then wrap the dough around the filling and seal it. Steaming in a steamer will result in a fluffy bun. If deep-frying, deep-frying twice will make them extra crispy and delicious.

Crispy and fluffy! Kinako and brown sugar biscuits

These biscuits, perfect for snacks, breakfast, or a light meal, are flavored with kinako (roasted soybean flour). They pair wonderfully with brown sugar syrup. Crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside, these biscuits are delicious fresh out of the oven, and even when cooled or reheated.

Cut the butter into 1cm cubes and keep it chilled in the refrigerator until just before use. The key is to mix it with the dry ingredients, crushing it by hand so that some lumps of butter remain. If you roll out the chilled dough with a rolling pin and fold it several times, the layers will crack when baked, resulting in a visually appealing and delicious finish.

Matcha, brown sugar syrup, and kinako (roasted soybean flour) buche, a gift that is sure to be appreciated.

These fluffy matcha-flavored sponge cakes are incredibly cute and sure to be a hit as a gift or party treat! Sandwiching them with kinako (roasted soybean flour) cream and brown sugar syrup transforms them into a stylish Japanese sweet! The rich aroma of matcha and kinako, accented by the deep sweetness of brown sugar, makes them irresistibly delicious.

To bake a fluffy bouchée batter, whisk the egg whites until stiff peaks form while adding the granulated sugar in two batches. Then, mix the remaining ingredients in order, and pipe the batter onto a baking sheet using a piping bag before baking. This will help you make a beautiful bouchée. Please give it a try!

A gentle flavor with roasted green tea! Japanese-style tiramisu

Finally, we have a Japanese-style tiramisu infused with the gentle aroma of roasted green tea. Instead of cocoa, we use roasted green tea for the finishing touches, and also in the syrup applied to the sponge cake, resulting in a richly fragrant dessert. It's easy to make using store-bought sponge cake.

The cream is made by whipping heavy cream, sugar, and brown sugar syrup until it reaches a stiff consistency (about 90% whipped) and then mixing in mascarpone cheese. The brown sugar syrup gives it a rich flavor, but it's so delicious you'll eat it all in no time. Please give it a try!

Give your usual desserts a twist with "black sugar syrup"!

So, what do you think? Just adding black sugar syrup to your usual dishes—drizzling it over ice cream or adding it to hot milk—can transform them into Japanese-style sweets! It's an easy way to change things up. There are also many other ways to use its flavor, such as mixing it into cake batter or using it as a substitute for sugar in cream. Try making stylish Japanese sweets at home, just like you'd find in a shop!
