Due to the success story of Kimuraya's anpan, Tsukisamu anpan began being produced in Tsukisamu, Toyohira Ward, Sapporo City, Hokkaido during the late Meiji Period; however, since there was no information on the recipe of the real anpan, it ended up being produced with the size and texture of geppei (a Chinese baked cake containing ingredients like red bean paste, nuts, and dried fruits and then wrapped with white flour dough) rather than the original anpan.
北海道札幌市豊平区月寒では、明治時代後期に、木村屋のアンパンの話を元に月寒あんぱんを作り出したが、製法や実物などの情報がなかったため、パンと言うよりも月餅に近いサイズと食感を持ったものとなった。
