That was one reason our work was featured on CNN.

2. Our Wagashi forming experience is an easy and fun one, just like colorful clay work, in which we form several colored materials to create a target figure.
Using a variety of colored materials, let's form into the day's theme design, just like colorful clay works, portray "the seasonal beauty of Japan".

3. Even if you have little experience in creative activities or cooking, we will carefully guide you through the process.
