What to expect
In this course, you will try making a rabbit-shaped candy artwork. A round piece of candy attached to a stick is shaped using your hands and traditional Japanese scissors.
First, you will watch a video explaining important notes and how to make the rabbit (with English subtitles).
After that, you will practice twice using training candy before creating your final piece. During the process, a craftsman will demonstrate the technique so you can better understand the details. Once the shape is complete, you will paint the face and details using edible coloring to finish your work. You will create a one-of-a-kind, special rabbit candy art piece.
As it is made of candy, it is edible, but you can also wrap it and take it home. Air cushion packaging and a carry bag are provided. A gift box is available for an additional 300 yen.
