Experience Details

Displayed outside many restaurants and cafes, plastic food samples are commonly found across Japan. Generally, they are used as 3D versions of foods that the establishment offers. Also known as a “shokuhin sanpuru” in Japanese (a literal translation of “food sample”), these perfectly delicious looking replicas represent different menu items. Amazingly, they are just made out of very convincing plastic! If you’re visiting Fukuoka and want to try and make your very own version of a “shokuhin sanpuru,” then this is your chance! During this experience, you’ll make a kawaii decorative cookie cake food sample to take home!


This Japanese food sample workshop is held at a colorful plastic food making studio in Fukuoka. Enter the workshop and you will be greeted with displays of different Japanese fake food replicas made to resemble all kinds of tasty-looking dishes. The friendly staff will help you with the different techniques required to put your cookie cake together. Surrounded by all kinds of plastic food, you will be amazed by how they all look so unbelievably real and mouthwatering!
