This was an experience as with a group under the control of a Chef we were taught how to make these lovely Japanese sweets. Higashi Kizato - which we moulded and cut into bi-coloured butterflies Jou-namagashi Neri-kiri - shaping them into lotus leaves but stuffed with a sweet paste Jou-namagashi Kinton - shaped balls similar to the above but covered in small pieces which we had grated through a bamboo sieve. Admittedly the ingredients were pre-prepared for us but the end result was ours. Much fun and a tasty treat to finish.
