The businessman had discovered the jelly when he drank water from his stream and noticed that it contained yellow jelly. Later it turned out that the jelly trickled from a tree with a kind of fig in it, the seeds of which gave a jelly. When he discovered this he took some jelly from the fruit and served it with honey-lime juice. The snack became so successful that the businessman named the fruit and jelly after his daughter Aiyu.
