A beginner-friendly series of hands-on cooking workshops to learn the fundamentals of Japanese style confections (commonly called 和菓子 wagashi), traditionally enjoyed with tea.
Celebrate autumn's beauty with a hands-on Japanese wagashi-making class during a day to explore Japanese arts, culture, and history.
Step into the delicate and creative world of Japanese sweets with Sen from Kintoki Sweets.
In this fun, hands-on workshop, Sen will guide you in creating Kaede (楓)—beautiful Japanese maple leaf-shaped mochi rice nougat candies with a subtle, delicious maple flavour.
Inspired by the vibrant colours and quiet beauty of autumn, these autumn-inspired sweets capture the flavour of Canada’s maple season. Beautiful to look at and delicious to eat, they are also vegan and gluten-free!

Whether you love Japanese culture, enjoy making sweets, or simply want to try something new, this workshop is a wonderful way to celebrate the season.
- Anyone curious about Japanese sweets and culture

Come create something beautiful with your hands, discover the artistry behind Japanese sweets, and take home a taste of autumn.
