Huge thanks to Kaori for hosting us at her wagashi school. We learnt how to make Dango, strawberry 🍓 Daifuku and wagashi. Also had them with matcha the traditional way and hojicha tea after. She was really patient with us and we were there for 3 hrs. It was a fun activity to do with my 12yr old daughter and she thoroughly enjoyed it. Kaori also shared she does kids classes and will be teaching onigiris next. She gifted us tea and calligraphy and we could take home leftovers after the class. Can't wait to be back on our next trip. Her plc is not far from Mitaka station and is near Ghibli museum so def worth a trip if u r in the area.

Make Hanami Dango, Daifuku and Nerikiri Wagashi in Mitaka
Cooking Classes
I joined this workshop at the Ikegami Baien Plum Garden in Tokyo’s Ota ward. Sayaka-san, who offers sweet-making workshops in Minami-Magome, greeted us at the garden entrance and guided us to a traditional house next to a koi pond, sharing fascinating details about the garden. We toured the wooden house with its different tearooms before settling in one for the class. Each of us had a personalized name card with kanji characters for our foreign names, a thoughtful touch. Before starting, Sayaka led us through a short meditation to help us focus. The class was conducted in English, and we received a color printout with each step to make cherry blossom-shaped wagashi. At the end, we sampled the sweets with matcha tea, which we prepared ourselves. We whipped the tea powder to the right foam level and poured it into beautiful tea cups. While sipping the tea and enjoying the sweets, we admired the autumn garden and listened to the sounds of water in the pond as the sun set. She was the sweetest teacher, explaining everything in detail in English on top of having prepared a color printout with all the necessary steps to make our sweets. She offered to take our photos and on top of the workshop, guided us through the garden pointing out the outstanding landscape and trees. A wonderful experience!

I thoroughly enjoyed the sakura nerikiri class in a charming teahouse nestled in a traditional Japanese garden. The teacher, fluent in English, guided us gently through the art of making these delicate sweets. The class began with a calming meditation, and we concluded by savoring our creations with matcha during a serene tea ceremony. I highly recommend this class to those who want a hands-on experience of traditional Japan!

This was an amazing experience! It was all very professional, and they were able to explain how to make your Amezaiku even if you don’t speak Japanese. The person leading the workshop was also very nice. They let you practice twice, which made the experience more fun! I highly recommend this place!
