testimonials

"We had such a great time making wagashi as a family. It was our first time, and I was pleasantly surprised to find that making wagashi is much more accessible than I had imagined — it seems like something we could enjoy at home as well. I hope more people come to appreciate the delicate and profound beauty of wagashi. Thank you for this valuable experience."

"I had a lot of fun. I used to think that wagashi-making was difficult, but hearing that it's okay for each creation to have its own personality made it feel less intimidating. Thank you very much."
— M.T.

"I'm so glad we were able to participate! My son loves wagashi, so he was thrilled to make his own and eat as much as he liked! I was surprised at how easy it was to make — much easier than I expected."
— M.M.

"This was our first time joining, and both my daughter and I had a great time. It was a little challenging for her, but as a parent, I think that kind of challenge was a good stimulus for her, which made the experience very meaningful."
