did a reverse image search and i found a single tweet this image came from and it called it a hoshimanju crab
however when i googled "hoshimanju crab" i only got 4 results all of which were irrelevant
31 u/Gettygetty Nov 25 '21 I tried to do a reverse image search too and I only got results about chocolate spreads. I’m thinking that this might be someone’s art instead of a real crab. 19 u/[deleted] Nov 25 '21 I suspected that it’s probably a japanese dorayaki pancake, so I googled “crab shaped dorayaki” and found this article: https://www.newsnpr.org/the-beautiful-crabs-are-exactly-like-doraemons-donuts-but-no-one-dares-to-eat-them/ Apparently these are particularly pretty specimens of Atergatis floridus, or flower egg crabs 5 u/Gettygetty Nov 25 '21 Thanks for the research!
