Scottish Fold cats are impossibly adorable. They're the most popular cat in Japan, and for good reason. With their cutely tucked and folded ears, they seem to have a perpetually confused look on their face, as if they are always begging you for something.

And it's a fitting look for these Japanese snacks modeled after Scottish Fold kitties, because they're so cute, the only way you could bring yourself to eat one is if a cat begged you!

Manju are traditional Japanese confectionery, and are usually made from rice powder, flour, and buckwheat, with a filling of red bean paste. While they are a classic treat usually appreciated with a nice hot cup of green tea, they come in all shapes and sizes and most recently have been taking on cutesy animal shapes. With Scottish Fold cats being a popular pet for the kingdom of kawaii, well, it was a match-up just waiting to happen!

It's not all aesthetics, however. Any concerns over the quality of taste can be put to rest, as these Scottish Fold Manju are a collaboration between Animal Hyakka and venerable Japanese confectionery shop, Awaya Sobei, which has a 65 year history and prides itself on protecting the traditional flavor of Japanese confectionery, passed on through generations. They are a limited release and being sold exclusive at Animal Hyakka's Yahoo Store, and come with four in a box for the price of 1,388円 (about 11$ USD).

They come in four appetizing flavors, mixing modern and traditional flavors.

Smooth bean paste, white bean paste, chocolate bean paste, and caramel bean paste.
