It was an authentic wagashi experience. 本格的な和菓子体験でした

Reviewed by: 大学二年一人旅

I participated in a course to experience four types of wagashi (Japanese sweets). Before making them, they explained what kind of wagashi we would create, the meanings of each name, and the ingredients, which was very educational. The experience was taught very carefully, so even the more difficult creations were enjoyable to make. Since it is a high-end wagashi shop, the taste of the finished products was exceptional. I had a great time.

4種の和菓子体験コースに参加しました。作る前にどんな和菓子を作り、和菓子のそれぞれの名前の意味や、材料について説明してくださり、勉強になりました。体験内容はとても丁寧に教えてくださるので、難しい作成も楽しくできてよかったです。高級な和菓子店ということもあり、出来上がりの味は格別でした。とてもたのしかったです。

I had a valuable experience and it was fun! I thought it was a great deal to be able to create three works with guidance from a professional! However, I found it frustrating that the instructor kept changing what they were saying.

貴重な経験ができて楽しかったです!プロに指導してもらえて、3作品も作れるのはお得かなと思いました!ただ、付いてくれた先生が言っていることがコロコロ変わるのが不快でした。

Fun to make, delicious to eat. 作って楽しい、食べておいしい

Reviewed by: おさる

We participated as a group of four and were assigned one table, allowing us to enjoy the experience without worrying about others. Many participants were in pairs, sitting across from each other at long tables. The instructor showed us how to make each of the four types of wagashi by creating samples, which made it fun even though we were inexperienced. The professional creations were impressive in both shape and color! At the end, we got to enjoy one piece with matcha, leaving us satisfied from both eating and making. It's interesting how, despite using the same ingredients and methods, everyone's creations turned out differently.

大人4人で参加しましたが、1つのテーブルを割り当ててもらい、気を遣うことなく体験出来ました。ほかは2人で参加された方が多く、長机に向かい合わせで座っていました。4種類の和菓子を一つ一つ見本を作りながら見せてくれるので、慣れないながらも作れて楽しかったです。プロが作ったものはさすがの形と色合い!最後は抹茶と一緒に1つをいただけるので、食べて満足、作って満足でした。同じ材料、作り方なのに人それぞれ違いが出て面白いです。

At first, I thought there was no way I could make four in just one hour! However, with the easy-to-understand guidance from the craftsman, I got into the flow and successfully shaped all four. Even though there are various types and methods for making wagashi, I learned a lot. I ended up with wonderful memories and souvenirs!

Traditional Japanese Sweets Making Experience in Arashiyama

So much fun!

Reviewed by: Meghan Caritativo

We had such an amazing time! The class was very therapeutic and even though we didn't speak Japanese, the instructor made it easy to follow. We were all able to make beautiful sweets and we shared a lot of laughs and smiles in the process. Note that the sweets are all filled with red bean, so if you're not a fan have someone in mind to give them to. They don't last very long though, so keep that in mind as well! If you don't speak Japanese I'd highly suggest going with friends since you'll be able to communicate with someone and figure the steps out together. This class definitely enhanced my trip to Japan and I highly recommend it!!

I wanted to experience something different in Kyoto, where I've been several times, so I signed up for this activity. There were just two participants, my mother and me, but the craftsman taught us carefully and in an interesting way, which made for a satisfying experience and a great memory. We took home what we made and it was delicious with just the right amount of sweetness. My mother was also pleased.

I had fun doing crafts with my child. 子供と工作気分で楽しめました。

Reviewed by: マリリンリン

Overall, everyone at the shop is very kind. There was no pressure to buy any of the shop's products, just a focus on making traditional Japanese sweets. However, since there was only one craftsman teaching, when there are many participants, the first group to receive instruction has to wait until the last group finishes... which creates a time lag. I thought it would be nice if they could increase the number of instructors during those times.

何しろ、お店の方全てが、とても親切です。和菓子作りだけで、お店の商品の押し売りなど一切ありませんでした。唯、教えて下さる職人さんが一人だったので、体験者の人数が多い時は最初に教えて貰ったグループは最後に教えて貰うグループが終わるまで待たなければならない・・・という、タイムラグがあります。そういう時は、教えて下さる方の人数を増やして頂けるといいな~と思いました。

Great experience

Reviewed by: Liesbeth

It was a great experience. I followed the workshop with my mother, and there was also one other Japanese couple.
Although the explanation of the workshop itself was in Japanese, the sensei explained everything by hand. We got a piece of paper on which we had the information of the sweets in English (so that we could understand what we were going to make). We made 2 sugary flat sweets and afterwards, we made 3 different Japanese sweets: sakura, autumn leaf and one other (see pictures). When the sweets were made, we got a macha tea so that we could eat the last Japanese sweet we've made. I would definitely recommend this workshop, even if you don't understand Japanese.

It's okay to participate alone. 一人参加でも大丈夫。

Reviewed by: すんたま

At the end of my solo trip to Kyoto, I wanted to try making wagashi (Japanese sweets) and participated in a class. It was located near Sanjusangendo, right in front of Toyokuni Shrine.

Although I am quite clumsy, the instructors were very kind and taught us with care, and I was truly moved that I could make wagashi by myself. Everything was prepared, including aprons and takeaway boxes, so you can really go hands-free. I was able to enjoy it without worrying about participating alone.

I was amazed by the craftsmanship and had a great experience. 職人技に驚きつついい経験ができました。

Reviewed by: あっちゃん

While I was interested, I challenged myself to make wagashi for the first time this time. We made four types of wagashi, and first, the craftsman explained each one. Then it was time for the main event. Everyone participated in unison, so it was reassuring even for those attending alone.

Using various tools like a rolling pin and triangular sticks, shaping them into forms like ginkgo leaves and chrysanthemums was quite challenging. While it took participants a long time to make one, the craftsman was able to create many in the time it took for one participant to finish.

For the fourth piece, we were able to taste it on the spot with matcha after making it. Before I knew it, about an hour had passed. Half of the participants were Japanese, and the other half were from overseas. It was a great opportunity to interact with people from abroad.

興味はありつつ、今回初めて和菓子作りに挑戦しました。
作った和菓子は4つ、はじめに職人さんが作るそれぞれの和菓子の説明をしくれ、いざ本番。
ひとつひとつ参加しているみんなで足並みを揃えて、進んでいくのでお一人様でも安心でした。
めんぼうや三角形の棒状の道具やそのほかさまざまな道具を使い、いちょうや菊などのかたちに整えていくのはとても苦労しました。参加者は1つ作るのにも時間がかかるなか見本を披露してくれる職人さんは、参加者が1つ作る間に何個も何個も作ってしまうほどでした。
4つ目の作品は、作った後に抹茶と一緒にその場で味見することができました。
あっという間に1時間ほどの時間が経過してしまいました。

Making Japanese sweets for the first time. 初めての和菓子作り

Reviewed by: ブレア

The location of the shop was a bit hard to find. There is a similar shop nearby that makes traditional Japanese sweets, so be careful when heading there by bus.

After changing into aprons, the experience began. We quickly moved along to make four types of Japanese sweets in one hour. There were about 20 participants, and since there were many foreigners, the teacher couldn't give us much individual attention. I wondered if I was doing the steps correctly while making the sweets. Compared to smaller classes, this one didn't provide the same level of detailed instruction for each person.

One of the sweets we made was enjoyed on the spot with matcha. It was very delicious, and it turned out to be a satisfying experience.

お店の場所は、少しわかりづらいところにありました。近くに和菓子作りをしている似たようなお店があるのでバスで向かう際は注意が必要です。

A cultural experience that reveals the delicacy of Japanese people. 日本人の繊細さが分かる日本文化体験

Reviewed by: Misa

I went with my foreign friends and my son. We received an explanation about wagashi (Japanese sweets) in English, but the experience itself didn't have English support, which might have made it a bit difficult for my foreign friends to understand. However, since we mostly just watched the staff and mimicked what they did, I think it wasn't a big problem.

The one-hour experience went by quickly as we made four different types of wagashi, progressing through each one smoothly. The base of the wagashi was pre-made, and we focused on shaping the dough into the required forms. It was more challenging than I expected, and my foreign friends were surprised and impressed by the Japanese attention to detail in making wagashi, especially the 360-degree appearance.

My son is 10 years old, but since his hands are smaller compared to adults, he found it a bit difficult to shape the sweets using his palms. However, he was very satisfied to eat what he made.

You can take the wagashi home, but since they don't last long in the summer and have no preservatives, you need to eat them the same day. My son wanted to take some home to his grandmother, but that was difficult. Additionally, since we were traveling, I was worried about carrying them around in the hot summer.

外国人の友達と息子と行きました。
英語で書かれた和菓子についての説明はもらえましたが、体験自体は英語の対応があるわけではなかったので、外国の友達にはちょっとわかりにくかったかもしれません。しかし、結局はスタッフの人のやることを見て真似する感じなので問題はないと思います。
1時間という体験時間や生もののため、計4つの種類の和菓子作りは1つずつサクサク進んで行きあっという間に終わりました。和菓子のベースは事前に作られたもので、とにかくその和菓子の生地を課題の形に整えていきました。思ったよりも難しく、前後左右360度の見た目にこだわる日本人の和菓子作りに外国人の友達は驚きと尊敬の念を表していました。
息子は10歳ですが、手のひらを使って形を作るものには大人に比べ手が小さいため、難しかったようです。でも、自分で作ったものを食べれてとても満足していました。
和菓子は持ち帰れるのですが、夏は日持ちもしないし防腐剤もないので、その日のうちに食べる必要があり、祖母に持って帰りたいと息子は言いましたが、それは難しかったです。また、旅行中でしたので余計、暑い夏にそれを持ち歩くことが心配でした。

Fun sweets-making class!

Reviewed by: Heather

It was nice getting to make various traditional Japanese sweets. The instructor did a good job of explaining how to make the various pastries and you are able to make out what you need to do, even if you don't speak Japanese. It would have been fun to make the ingredients from scratch, but then the course would have been much longer, so all the main ingredient were pre-made for us. Our treats came out pretty good, but the only downside is that you have to eat then by the end of the following day, but ours made it another day in the fridge.
