    My family and I are traveling in Okinawa and we were fascinated by all the little tarts with fluffy violet filling. We had to try some, and now we are addicted. I'd say the filling is lightly sweet, and similar to the custard filling of an American pumpkin or sweet potato pie, but stiffer, so you can squeeze it through a frosting bag. Thank you for this recipe: We are going to try to make this at home, and to share it with our Girl Scout friends on World Friendship Day.
