Looks like matcha wasonbon. I’ve only ever used them for sweetening my tea but you can use them for baking or making sweets. There’s a specific type of wagashi that uses them to sweeten the bean paste.

This is wasanbon, I use it before serving tea in a tea ceremony. ( You give it to the guest to eat ).
It’s usually made from special wasanbon sugar handmade from sugar cane.
This one, however, is not suitable for tea ceremony purposes because it is matcha flavored.

Could be used as ear plugs, i suppose.

Hello, I’m Japanese. This is a sweet made from sugar called Wasanbon. You can eat it as is, but in Japan it is known as a sweet to eat with green tea.
