Steamed cake that looks like an egg: Form over flavor
The simplest way to transform a ho-hum sweet into something that jumps out at customers is to make it look like a different foodstuff altogether.

This reminded me of a well-known saying from the 1960s, Taiho's heyday, which says that Kyojin (the Yomiuri Giants baseball team), Taiho and tamagoyaki (rolled omelet) are the three things most-loved by Japanese children. A piece or two of cheery, bright yellow tamagoyaki is still considered to be an essential component of a bentō (boxed lunch).
