This workshop offers more than the joy of tasting Wagashi; it gives you the experience of creating edible art, engaging your senses of sight, touch, and taste. Simple hand movements— pressing, pinching, layering — become acts of sculpture and painting, turning the creative process itself into an artistic experience. Through this hands-on practice, you will discover the unique beauty of Japanese food culture.At the end of the class, you’ll take home the Nerikiri you lovingly crafted yourself. We hope you’ll share them with your family and friends—revisiting the stories and moments from the workshop as you admire and enjoy the sweets you created with your own hands.  https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events7/banners/d7e74460-1a11-11f1-addc-399c2b4ffec3-rimg-w1200-h704-dcd0d4db-gmir.jpg What Makes Us Different?Hands-on experience: All the ingredients and materials are prepared, and containers for taking them home are provided.

All ingredients can be easily found in New York stores, making it convenient for anyone to try at home. Mari, an instructor at Temari NY, discovered her passion for making cute and beautiful food art while creating bento boxes for her children. She is certified in traditional Japanese sweets and decorative sushi making in Japan and now shares her expertise in New York City, aiming to spread the joy of creating these edible works of art to as many people as possible.Yuki SakuraYuki Sakura originally pursued a career as a pâtissier, dedicating herself to creating Western-style desserts. However, as she reflected more deeply on her identity as a Japanese person, a new desire began to grow within her—a desire to share Japanese culture with the world through her own hands. That realization led her to the path of Wagashi (和菓子).Today, Yuki creates Wagashi for tea ceremonies and matcha specialty shops. Each piece is crafted entirely by hand, infused with the changing seasons and the feelings of the maker. Wagashi are not simply sweets; they are expressions of nature, emotion, and tradition. They are meant to be appreciated with the eyes, felt with the heart, and remembered long after the last bite. Delivering this “multi-layered experience” is the foundation of her Wagashi-making.Looking ahead, she hope to share the joy and depth of Wagashi with people across countries and generations. Her goal is to bring the beauty and warmth of this traditional Japanese art form to a wider audience around the world.
