Wagashi (Japanese confectionery)



I went to make Wagashi(Japanese confectionery) at japanese sweets shop.
Wagashi are often served with japanese green tea.
most wagashi is made by Mochi , red bean past and some fruits.the coulor and shape are very beautiful and cute.
we went to the shop there are no people there so only 2 of us could learn how to make Wagashi.
It was not difficult to make it.we only make a shape and knead red bean paste and after we made own wagashi we could enjoy wagashi and japanese green tea.
it was great experience to make japanese sweets by my self and enjoy them.
This is the website for japanese sweets shop.
the shop name is Kanshundo and you need to make a reservation .
