The exposition, which has a history that goes back over 100 years, is organized every four or five years in a different town each time

Okashi no Porshe pocketed the same highest award back in 2008 with their Beni-imo tart (sweet potato tart).

The Sweets Bazaar conducted at the exhibition had a total of 1008 kinds of different sweets from all over Japan on sale, and three sweets from Okashi no Porshe were among the top 10 sellers at the bazaar.
