This was such a fun experience! The hosts did a great job teaching about the history of mochi and how to make it. It was a great little work out squeeze into our trip! It was also really nice being able to eat our hard work afterwards, they provided great options for flavoring the mochi and knowing it’s made fresh and by you makes it that much tastier! Definitely recommend this to anyone staying nearby in Osaka as long as you have a spare hour+ to spend!
