From a brief history of the so called cake:

Shingen is actually a name of Japan's famous warlords, SHINGEN TAKEDA. It's an old tradition to put mochi covered with soy bean powder and brown sugar syrup on every household of a Buddhist altar during the BON FESTIVAL. Shingen-mochi was born from a local culture and use the name Shingen as their sign of respect as they marketed the product.

 @rarapanpusu twitted this: 

The sensation of eating water cake was a bit surprising, since it felt like the cake turned into water into your mouth, but it was delicious.

Made by Kinseiken Seika Company, using the water from the Southern Japanese alps and can only be enjoyed in one of the Kinseiken's two Yamagata prefecture locations.
