Delightful! Everyone in my family loved making mochi with Sakura (and petting Choco at the end) and she taught us so much! It was one of our favorite activities

We had a wonderful time and experience at Sakura san’s class. The class was very well organised and structured. Our nine year old is very shy and Sakura san approached her with patience and after a while she felt comfortable.
We’re so glad that we did this and recommend the class wholeheartedly.
Thank you for the great time, Sakura san🌸

Yuko was a great host and taught us how to make Nerikiri in a very easy to understand manner. It was amazing that we, who had no experience in Japanese confectionery making, could make such beautiful Nerikiri!! It was a wonderful experience!!
Thank you, Yuko!

I loved my experience with Yuko-San. She was a very sweet lady who wants to make sure you get the best experience possible.
The cooking was pretty fast paced but it's because she wants you to have the time slow down and enjoy the sweets you made while drinking a cup of tea and chatting with her. She is interested in you and wants to know about your story.
If you learn Japanese before booking this class, you will gain even more from this experience since you will able to connect with her even more.
I truly think she makes the experience worth it. It is much better than a step by step Youtube video. It felt more personal.

I had an incredible time learning authentic Nagoya home cooking! Unlike other classes where you just watch and eat, this was completely hands-on, which made a huge difference. Yuko-san and her family were so welcoming that the evening felt more like a warm family gathering than a formal lesson. If you want to experience the true heart of Nagoya’s food culture beyond just sitting in a restaurant, this is the perfect way to do it. I will definitely be making that tebasaki when I get back home!

My sisters, cousin, and I took the mochi sweets class with Sakura san. It was an absolutely amazing experience! Sakura san is an exceptional teacher and we learned so much from her. Her step by step lesson was perfect and I am excited to bring home everything I have learned. The different types of mochi were delicious. She even gave a lesson on the history of mochi. I am so grateful for this course and I highly recommend it for everyone. It was a great experience making a cultural dish. Thank you so much Sakura san!

Yuko-san provided us with a wonderful history of Wagashi before the course started and showed us what we would be making. We had so much fun learning about Japanese sweets. I highly recommend stopping here in Tokyo on your next trip. It’s worth it just to explore the beautiful neighbourhood and get to eat delicious s.weets and matcha tea. Yuko was a gracious host.

We had such an exceptional experience! A sincere thank you to our host, Kaoru, who thought through every detail end-to-end to ensure a seamless experience. My family and I thoroughly enjoyed every moment of it - not only the fantastic mochi lesson, but most importantly her company and the time she took to explain mochi's significance in the Japanese culture. This made such a great memory for our trip that our family will cherish for a lifetime. We will book another lesson with Kaoru the next time we are in Tokyo for sure. Thank you again! ❤️

We had the most enjoyable time learning how to make Japanese desserts. The instructor was so caring, genuine and welcoming. I went with my 9 and 13 year old daughters and they told me that this was the best part of our Japan trip 😊 Additionally, the neighborhood where the class takes place has lot of wonderful restaurants and bars and coffee shops. I highly recommend exploring before or after the class.

Wagashi Making Classes
Craving something sweet? Satisfy your sweet tooth with a wagashi making class! Made of ingredients like sweet bean paste and glutinous rice flour, wagashi are 100% vegan, and often gluten-free as well. Edible works of art, Japanese wagashi are shaped into motifs that represent the season. For example, Momiji (maple leaf)-shaped wagashi are popular in the fall in Japan. They’re so beautiful that you may prefer to keep them forever rather than eat them, but wagashi are amazing to enjoy with tea. Wagashi are usually used in tea ceremonies and accompany a foamy bowl of vibrant green matcha. Great for kids, families, and those who love arts and crafts, these wagashi making classes will equip you will the tools and skills you need to make stunning handmade wagashi. Under the attentive guidance of your wagashi making instructor, soon you’ll be confidently shaping and molding these edible works of art!
