Japanese Sweets Making Workshop in London

Come join us for an afternoon of creating delicious Japanese sweets at our in-person event. Get into the Christmas spirit and learn how to make traditional Wagashi treats with a festive twist.

Wagashi is the general term for Japanese sweets and there are many types. In this workshop we will make three designs of the fresh type of Japanese sweet called ‘Nerikiri’. These are often accompanied with a bowl of Matcha tea in a tea ceremony. Although it is traditionally Japanese, the design can be contemporary and this time we are going to make three designs in the Christmas theme. They are all vegan and gluten free.

No experience is necessary, as our expert instructor will guide you through the process step by step. Bring your friends and family along for a fun and memorable experience. (*Suitable for ages 12+ yr, but we advise children are accompanied by an adult on a separate ticket.) Don’t miss out on this unique opportunity to learn a new skill and enjoy some tasty treats! You can take home and consume all your creations.

Look forward to seeing you there!
