Japanese 🎄Christmas Market finished successfully! * Last Sunday we had a stall in a Christmas Market in North London. Many Japanese vendors gathered selling interesting Japanese related stuff. Some visitors came to see the market all the way from Wimbledon or Greenwich! * I had prepared two types of food, Gyoza Dumplings and Wagashi Japanese sweets, for this day and both were sold out! I received great compliments that would give me an energy and motivation to carry on making something new & good. * Thank you all for coming and hope to see you again Next Year!! * * #wagashi #japanesefood #japanesesweets #sweets #japanesedessert #dessert #food #flowercakes #edibleflowers #rose #london #londonfood #londonfoodie #londoneats #christmasmarket #market #foodstall #ilovejapan #ilovejapanesefood #gyoza #kawaiifood #crouchend #muswellhill #n8 #n10 #vegan #vegetarian #glutenfree #和菓子 #ロンドン生活

Wagashi for Japanese Christmas Market in North London * Sakura Junction is going to have a stall in Christmas Market that will be held in North London this Sunday. * Although I have only two days to prepare, I haven't decided which Japanese Sweets I should take with me yet. The ones definitely (or most likely) will be there are on these photos. I try selecting the sweets which had a great feedback. * If you live in London, please come to join this our annual event. You will find various types of Japanese food as well as many beautiful things that are great as gifts for your friends and family. It's half day only so do not miss the opportunity. See you there then! 🤗 * * #wagashi #japanesefood #japanesesweets #japanesedessert #dessert #sweets #flowers #rose #kawaiifood #ilovejapan #ilovejapanesefood #london #londonfood #londonfoodie #londonevents #londoneats #londonlife #flowercake #christmasmarket #foodstall #streetfood #crouchend #muswellhill #n8 #n10 #vegan #vegetarian #glutenfree #和菓子 #ロンドン生活

Japanese Christmas🎄Market is Coming to North London! * This Sunday I am going to have a stall in Japanese Christmas Market. It's my annual event as Sakura Junction and the only occasion that my swets are sold to public. * The market is a craft fair that gets filled with all sort of beautiful things related to Japan. They will be great gifts for your friends and falimies. * This market is getting very popular. It may be because of all sort of Japanese food that many peopke are after. Hot food and drink are served on site. * As well as 'Wagashi' Japanese sweets I'm going to serve one of the most popular Japanese street food 'Gyoza' Dumplings. They come in two types, one of them is for vegetarians and the other one is the Christmas special! It's Turkey meat with Christmas seasoning. It actually works quite well with a soy sauce based dipping with chilli. * If you live in London, please come and see me this Sunday. It's half day only so do not miss the opportunity!! * * #japanesefood #japanesesweets #wagashi #sweets #japanesecakes #flowers #edibleflower #christmasmarket #london #londonfood #londonfoodie #foodies #Gyoza #dumplings #londonevents #londoneats #market #streetfood #crouchend #ilovejapan #ilovejapanesefood #lovejapanesefood #craftfair #vegan #vegetarian #glutenfree #n8 #n10 #和菓子 #ロンドン生活

Wagashi Making Workshop in London * This post became the rather delayed report but last month I had an opportunity to hold another Japanese Sweet Making Workshop in London. This time the venue was a lovely tea shop @mycupoftea_london * We had two male enthusiasts amongst the participants. It's so great to see many people from both gender getting to be interested in Japanese Sweet culture. They all were very keen and seemed happy when we completed the class. * Because I was too busy talking to people during the workshop, unfortunately I did not have a chance to take any photos of the participants' creation. Thankfully one of the participants @suzettehannah let me use her photo (the 5th one). Thank you!😊 I'd like to thank also @indiedevm and all the other people for participating.xx * "Announcement" My next Wagashi Making Workshop will be held in February. If you are interested in participating, please keep an eye on my posts! Cheers! 😉 * * #wagashi #japanesesweets #japanesefood #japanesedessert #japanesecakes #sweets #dessert #flowercake #edibleflowers #workshop #london #londoneats #londonfoodie #londonfood #londonevents #londonlife #londonworkshop #foodworkshop #cookingclass #ilovejapan #ilovejapanesefood #food #foodie #matcha #experience #handmade #flowers #vegan #japan #和菓子

Momiji /Japanese Maple, Japanese sweet * It's the season that we enjoy beautiful colour changes in the nature.

Mochi Mont Blanc, Japanese sweet * The Chestnut🌰 time continues on Sakura Junction! I had been wanting to create my own Japanese sweet version of Mont Blanc for a long time and I finally made it this year! * It's got plain sweet Mochi instead of sponge as base and topped with the iconic swirl of delicious sweet chestnut cream! In order to enhance the chestnut flavour some pieces of chestnut cooked in syrup are hidden inside as well as the one piece on top as the decoration. * It's Vegan & Gluten free. The more details are on SakuraJunction.com * * #wagashi #montblanc #chestnut #chestnuts #mochi #japanesesweets #japanesefood #ilovejapan #ilovejapanesefood #lovejapanesefood #japanesedessert #dessert #sweets #food #foodart #foodstagram #foodpics #foodphoto #foodphotography #london #londonfood #londonfoodie #londoneats #vegan #vegetarian #glutenfree #和菓子 #栗 #お菓子作り #ロンドン生活

Mochi Chestnuts, Japanese sweets * It's Autumn! It's Sweet Chestnuts🌰time! These are Chestnuts made of Mochi, rice cake.

The dark part which is like a base of the nuts are cteated with poppy seeds. * It goes well with coffee as well as trafitional Japanese tea. * * #wagashi #japanesesweets #japanesedessert #japanesefood #dessert #sweets #ilovejapanesefood #ilovejapan #lovejapanesefood #food #foodart #foodstyling #foodpics #foodstagram #foodphoto #foodphotography #londonfood #londonfoodie #londoneats #kawaiifood #chestnut #chestnuts #autumn #vegan #vegetarian #glutenfree #和菓子 #ロンドン生活 #お菓子作り #栗

Vrery nice Matcha Latte @wasoukan_london * It has been the place that gives me a sense of tranquillity with a beautiful bowl of Matcha tea. How will Londoners cope without them...😢 * #matcha #matchalatte #greentea #wagashi #japanesefood #japanesesweets #japanesetea #latte #london #londonfood #londonfoodie #food #foodie #cafe #londoncafe #lovejapan #ilovejapan #ilovejapanesefood #lovejapanesefood #londoneats #japanesedessert #matchalove #lovematcha #foodpics #foodphoto #nottinghill #抹茶 #ロンドン生活 #ロンドン #和菓子

Fireworks, Japanese sweet * It was Guy Fawkes Night yesterday. Did you go to see a marvellous display of Fireworks? * I created these Fireworks sweets for cereblating Guy Fawkes Night, however, I feel a little odd to make these sweet in this season. It's because Fireworks are normally very summer thing in Japan. * In order to express the colourful sparks of fireworks, I used japanese sweet in six colours as well as golden & silver food glitter. I made it look colourful rnogh but there is more colour hidden inside when you eat! * It's Vegan and glutenfree. The details are on www.SakuraJunction.com * It's one of the monthly sweets and you can have it @wasoukan_london at the moment. * * #wagashi #firework #fireworks #guyfawkes #food #foodpics #foodphoto #foodphotography #foodart #foodstagram #london #londonfood #londonfoodie #kawaiifood #londoneats #dessert #japanesefood #japanesesweets #japanesedessert #ilovejapan #ilovejapanesefood #lovejapanesefood #sweets #vegan #vegetarian #glutenfree #和菓子 #花火 #ロンドン生活 #お菓子作り

The Scariest Ghost?! 👻 * Don't be so scared! It's just a Mochi, Japanese sweet Ghost. He put a wig on for going to a fancy dress party. Hold on! He reminds me of somebody .... I wonder who it is ...??? * * #wagashi #japanesesweets #japanesedessert #ilovejapan #ilovejapanesefood #lovejapanesefood #kawaiifood #sweet #food #foodstyling #foodart #foodpics #foodstagram #mochi #ghost #halloween #halloweendessert #halloweenfood #trump #london #londonfood #londonfoodie #londoneats #dessert #vegan #vegetarian #glutenfree #和菓子 #ロンドン生活 #お菓子作り

Treat & Treeeat! 👻 * It's the Halloween Night! Be careful, Dracula 🧛‍♂️ might be lurking around near you! Have a Happy Halloween! 🎃🎃🎃 * * #wagashi #japanesesweets #ilovejapan #ilovejapanesefood #lovejapanesefood #kawaiifood #sweet #food #foodpics #foodstagram #foodphoto #foodart #mochi #matcha #halloween #halloweenfood #halloweendessert #dracula #pumpkin #london #londonfood #londonfoodie #londoneats #dessert #vegan #vegetarian #glutenfree #和菓子 #ロンドン生活 #ハロウィン

Ghooooost '18 👻 Japanese sweet * This is my Ghost sweet for this year's Halloween! I originally created it as an example of sweets I was planning to make in the Wagashi Making Workshop. However, we changed the theme and I did not have a chance to make it with participants. I quite like how this ghost came out, so I hope I will be able to create this in another workshop maybe next year?! * #wagashi #japanesefood #japanesesweets #japanesedessert #japanesecakes #ilovejapan #ilovejapanesefood #lovejapanesefood #kawaiifood #halloween #halloweenfood #halloweendessert #ghost #cutefood #food #foodphotography #foodphoto #foodpics #dessert #sweet #london #londoneats #londonfoodie #vegan #vegetarian #glutenfree #和菓子 #ハロウィン #お菓子作り #ロンドン生活

Mochi Jack-O'-Lantern 🎃 Japanese sweet * I've made Jack-O'-Lantern with different sweet material before, however, I wanted to try making it with Mochi this time. Since the Mochi has a gooey and bumpy texture, it was a kind of challenge to me! * I am pleased to see that the significant figure of the face came out rather well. The outer layer of soft sweet Mochi, rice cake, is wrapping up the filling which was made with pumpkin puree and sweet white bean paste. It's got the natural sweetness and flavour of pumpkin. The green part is the same Mochi layer with Matcha green tea powder. * It's Vegan and Gluten free. * The detail of this sweet is on www.SakuraJunction.com. 🎃🎃🎃 * * #wagashi #japanesefood #japanesesweets #japanesedessert #ilovejapan #ilovejapanesefood #dessert #sweet #food #foodphoto #foodpics #londonfood #londonfoodie #londoneats #kawaiifood #foodstyling #halloween #halloweenfood #halloweendessert #jackolantern #pumpkin #mochi #matcha #matchalover #vegetarian #vegan #glutenfree #和菓子 #ハロウィン #ロンドン生活
