Japanese Birthday Cake, Japanese Sweet * 🎂🎂🎂🎂🎂🎂🎂🎂🎂🎂🎂🎂🎂 Just receny I received an order for a Birthday cake. It was by one very enthusiastic customer of my sweets when they were served at the kimono shop in Notting Hill, London. There were two options for making a Japanese cake and I suggested the client to go for a sweet with sponge-like base. * With a decorations on to it looks very western cake looking but actually Japanese sweet. The client told me that her favourite colour for flowers is yellow, so I prepared roses and some other flower decorations in yellow, orange and white. I also placed three raspberries as the contrast and balance to the colour scheme. * The cake ended up a little busier than the image I'd had it in my mind. If I have another chance, I'd like to improve it. * This cake is Vegetarian and Gluten free. * * #wagashi #birthdaycake #cake #flowers #edibleflowers #japanesesweets #sweets #japanesecakes #japanesefood #ilovejapanesefood #japanesefoodlover #londonjapanesefood #matchalover #heytheremaker #instasweet #vegetarian #glutenfree #londonfoodie #londoneats #foodart #fooddesign #foodstyling #lovefood #foodphotpgraphy #foodpics #kawaiifood #和菓子 #和菓子作り #ロンドン生活 #お菓子作り

Wow, this green colour is so intense! The 🍵 tea was gorgeously thick & creamy @the_havan_store. Thanks for the lovely tea. Have a wonderful weekend! #matcha #matchaholic #matchalover #ilovematcha #Japanesefood #japanesetea #greentea #japanesesweets #green #foodphoto #foodphotography #foodpics #londoncafe #london #Londonlife #wagashi #londoneats #londonfoodie #matchalove #ilovejapanesefood #lovematcha #抹茶 #ロンドン生活 #ロンドン #カフェ #緑

The answer is ... * * In my previous post I set up a Mystery Sweet Quiz and asked to guess what kind of flavour/ingredient was used for the centre filling for that sweet. I am very pleased that several people have joined in the quiz and would like to say thank you to all the participants for taking your time! * I gave some hints along with people's guessing going on such as 1. How the sweet looks like. 2. The filling is associated with the colour of the sweet (green). 3. It's something getting popular in the UK (western worldwide) and can be found either cooked or frozen in a super market.... * After some back and forth we finally got the right answer! It was; EDAMAME!!🎉 And the winner is 🎊 @the_vespertine_kitchen !! * So, the ingredient of this sweet filling was Edamame and my sweet is 'Edamame Cream Mochi'. It is actually not unusual to use Edamame for sweet in Japan and its paste is called 'Zunda'. * * * #wagashi #japanesesweets #sweets #instasweets #japanesefood #ilovejapapesefood #japanesefoodlover #japanesevegetarian #londonjapanesefood #edamame #mochi #mochilovers #japanesedessert #dessert #instadessert #londonfoodie #londoneats #foodphoto #foodphotography #foodpics #vegetarian #londonvegetarian #glutenfree #lovefood #fooddesign #matchalover #和菓子 #和菓子作り #ロンドン生活 #ずんだ餅

It's another 'Mystery Sweet Quiz' Time! ??????????????? * Before moving on to the wonderful weekend I am posting the Mystery sweet quiz for you! 😄 Here is a Mochi type Japanese sweet I made this summer and I'd like to know 'What do you think the flavour of this Mochi sweet is'. * It's got a central filling which is made with some ingredient that is becoming quite popular in the UK. It is not that unusual for being used as sweet for Japanese but it might be a little surprise for British people. So what do you think? The quiz is starting ..... Now!!⏱ * * #wagashi #japanesesweets #yummy #sweet #instasweets #japanesedessert #dessert #instadessert #japanesefood #ilovejapanesefood #japanesefoodlover #londonjapanesefood #mochi #foodphoto #foodpics #vegetarian #glutenfree #mysteryfood #instayummy #matchalover #londonfood #londonfoodie #londoneats #foodstagram #lovefood #instafood #foodart #和菓子 #和菓子作り #ロンドン生活

Morning Glory, Japanese sweet Sorry, my summer sweet post continues. These are my Morning Glory sweet. They look cute and appealing to eyes, don't they? It's such a simple shape but I actually find it a little tricky shape to form. It''s Vegan and Glutenfree * * #wagashi #morningglory #flowers #edibleflowers #sweets #japanesesweets #instasweets #kawaiifood #japanesefood #ilovejapanesefood #japanesefoodlover #londonjapanesefood #japanesedessert #dessert #instadessert #londonfood #heytheremaker #foodphoto #foodphotography #foodpics #vegan #japanesevegan #japaneseveganfood #glutenfree #matchalover #foodart #fooddesign #和菓子 #和菓子作り #ロンドン生活

Watermelon Mochi, Japanese Sweet 🍉🍉🍉🍉🍉🍉🍉🍉🍉🍉🍉🍉🍉🍉 As I mentioned in my previous post I made several types of Mochi sweet this summer and this is another one. It is a sweet with Mochi outer layer looks like a watermelon and tastes also like the fruit inside. 🍉 I made quite similar sweet before which was a cut version of the fruit called 'Mochi Watermelon'. You can see the naming is slightly different too. 🍉 It's Vegan and Gluten free. 🍉 🍉 #wagashi #watermelon #fruit #japanesesweet #instasweet #japanesefood #ilovejapanesefood #japanesefoodlover #londonjapanesefood #dessert #japanesedessert #instadessert #kawaiifood #foodart #fooddesign #foodstyling #foodphoto #foodphotography #foodpics #lovefood #londonfoodie #londoneats #vegan #veganjapanesefood #japanesevegan #matchalover #和菓子 #和菓子作り #ロンドン生活 #スイカ

Cinnamon & Cream Mochi, Japanese Sweet This summer I have made Mochi in several flavours and this is one of them. Although I named this sweet as Cinnamon & Cream Mochi, it is probably more suitable to call it 'Yatsuhashi Cream Mochi'. If you've been to Japan, particularly Kyoto, you might have had a sweet called Yatsuhashi. It's a Mochi coated with some mixed powder of cinnamon and Kinako (roasted soybean powder). I used same powder for this Mochi sweet. So, I can say that you can enjoy the taste of Kyoto with this Cinnamon & Cream Mochi.😊 * * #wagashi #japanesesweets #sweets #instasweets #sweetstagram #japanesedessert #dessert #instadessert #dessertstagram #japanesefood #ilovejapanesefood #japanesefoodlover #mochi #food #foodphoto #foodphotography #glutenfree #londonjapanesefood #vegetarian #matchalover #matcha #cream #londonfood #londonfoodie #londoneats #lovefood #cinnamon #和菓子 #和菓子作り #ロンドン生活

Wagashi Making Workshop in London (July) 🌻🍉🌻🍉🌻🍉🌻🍉🌻🍉🌻🍉🌻🍉🌻🍉🌻 * Sorry, it took so long. I finally managed posting the report of Wagashi Japanese Sweet Making Workshop in July. * 🍉 The day I had this event became the hottest day in July in the UK since the record's begun! Yes, it was very hot but luckily the venue was in a lovely courtyard with a roof over our heads. We occasionally had a cool breeze and a little bit of rain too so I think it was much nicer that we were sitting in a shady outdoor than staying in a stuffy indoor. * 🌻 The summer sweets we made together were Sunflower, Watermelon and a Giant Panda. Although Watermelon was a little tricky to form for a beginner, everybody created it successfully. 🐼 Unfortunately there was a cancellation because of the weather condition, however, I had wonderful participants consisting of two repeaters, two children and also the visitors to London. 🍉 I wrote the longer report with more photos on my blog. If you are interested to know about the event, please visit SakuraJunction.com 🌻 Also, if you would like to participate in my workshop, please wait for the notification on my account or DM me. Cheers! 🍉 🍉 #wagashi #flowers #japanesesweets #sweets #instasweets #japanesefood #japanesefoodlover #ilovejapanesefood #japanesedessert #dessert #instadessert #londonfoodie #londonlife #lovefood #londonworkshop #workshop #cookingclass #londoneats #londonevents #londonfood #vegan #veganjapanesefood #glutenfree #veganjapanese #japanesevegan #matchalover #kawaiifood #和菓子 #和菓子作り #ロンドン生活

Japanese Summer Sweets 🌻🌺🌻🌺🌻🌺🌻🌺🌻🌺🌻🌺🌻🌺🌻🌺🌻 * I received a private order a little while ago. I prepared these Japanese sweets in the summer theme. They are Sunflower and Morning Glory in a design. * I know it's been quite cold as summer in London now. I wonder whether the Indian summer comes this year ... * These sweets are Vegan and Gluten free. * * #wagashi #flowers #sunflower #morningglory #edibleflowers #japanesesweets #sweets #instasweet #japanesefood #ilovejapanesefood #japanesefoodlover #japanesedessert #dessert #instadessert #kawaiifood #lovefood #londonfood #londoneats #londonjapanesefood #matchalover #foodart #fooddesign #foodphotography #vegan #veganjapanesefood #japanesevegan #和菓子 #和菓子作り #花 #ロンドン生活

Morning Glory, Japanese Sweet I made another Japanese sweet in summer flower design. This is Morning Glory, one of the most summery flowers. It is the first plant I sew the seeds and looked after myself when I was a child. * Sadly I don't see them at all in London. I am thinking that maybe I should plant them next year?! * * It's Vegan and Gluten free #wagashi #morningglory #flowers #edibleflowers #japanesesweet #sweet #instasweet #japanesedessert #dessert #instadessert #japanesefood #ilovejapapesefood #japanesefoodlover #londonfoodie #londonjapanesefood #londoneats #vegan #veganjapanese #foodphoto #foodart #fooddesign #foodphotography #foodstyling #foodpics #lovefood #matchalover #和菓子 #和菓子作り #ロンドン生活 #花

Peony, Japanese sweet * 🏵🏵🏵🏵🏵🏵🏵🏵🏵🏵🏵🏵🏵🏵🏵 I have posted the sweet of Peony flower bud before and here is the flower virsion of the sweet. When I was planning how to create this sweet, the shape was quite clear in my mind but it came out a little more like a rose in somehow?! I will try making it again. * It's Vegan and Gluten free * * #wagashi #peony #flowers #edibleflowers #japanesesweet #sweet #instasweets #japanesedessert #dessert #instadessert #japanesefood #ilovejapanesefood #japanesefoodlover #londonfoodie #londonfood #londoneats #vegan #japanesevegan #veganjapanese #foodphoto #foodart #fooddesign #foodstyling #instafood #foodphotography #foodpics #和菓子 #和菓子作り #ロンドン生活 #花

Watermelon, Japanese Sweet * * 🍉🍉🍉🍉🍉🍉🍉🍉🍉🍉🍉🍉🍉🍉🍉🍉 I created Watermelon, the King of summer fruit, as a Japanese sweet. This sweet looks like watermelon, but it tastes like it too! It's because I added plenty of watermelon juice to the center filling. It's a super fun sweet to make.😊 🍉 I am going to make this sweet as well as some other summer sweets in my Wagashi Making Experience Workshop this Thursday. The space is limited to a small group and it's filling up now! * 🍉 🍉 #wagashi #watermelon #japanesesweet #sweets #japanesedessert #dessert #japanesefood #japanesefoodlover #ilovejapanesefood #kawaiifood #foodart #fooddesign #lovefood #london #londonfood #instasweets #londoneats #londonevents #events #londonworkshop #workshop #cookingclass #craft #vegan #foodvideo #japanesevegan #matchalover #和菓子 #和菓子作り #ロンドン生活

Clematis, Japanese Sweet * 🌻🌻🌻🌻🌻🌻🌻🌻🌻🌻🌻🌻🌻🌻 * Wow, it's hot here in London! 💦And it will become hotter!😅 Although Clematis flowers are a little out of season, they look very cooling in this photo so I post it for you! 🍉 Another cool thing for you is that I am going to have Wagashi Making Experience Workshop this Thursday. It's a rare opportunity to make fresh type Japanese sweet in London and we'll make the sweets in the second photo by hand. 🐼 It will be in North London on 25th July (Thursday) 2 - 4pm.

Peony Flower Bud, Japanese Sweet 🏵🏵🏵🏵🏵🏵🏵🏵🏵🏵🏵🏵🏵🏵 I love Peony. It is because of its colour, shape and scent. I think its tightly closed round flower buds are so cute! * I created sweets in the shape of Peony flowers and a bud. I will post the flowers later but this flower bud came out the best amongst of all. If you can see the energy of the plant which is trying to open its beautiful flower/petals in this small bud sweet, it is a success. * It's Vegan & Gluten free * 🏵 I am going to have a Wagashi, Japanese sweet, Making Workshop in LONDON next weet.
