History : Wagashi ( "Wa" Japanese + "Okashi" fruits and nuts) served with matcha (powder) green tea

The word for sweets, okashi, originally referred to fruits and nuts. China learned from India how to produce sugar and began trading it to Japan. Influenced by the introduction of tea and China's confectionery, the creation of 'Wagashi' took off during the Edo period (years 1600 - 1868). Nowadays, Wagashi = Sugar + Fruits and nuts = Okashi (modern time). Therefore, the term Okashi is used for Wagashi
(Examples: Sakura Mochi (cherry leaf + sweet rice and beans paste), Walnut sweets, Green Tea Cake
