Sakuraco: Meet Amezaiku Yoshihara

Amezaiku is the craft of creating handmade sweets that first appeared in Japan’s Edo Period (1603-1867). Intricate and delicate in nature, Amezaiku is beyond simple sweet making, it is an artistic craft.

A feature of Amezaiku is that it is crafted in front of the customer.

Local Amezaiku craftsman Takahiro Yoshihara keeps this tradition going strong even to this day at this handmade candy shop in Tokyo.

Beyond this, they also create their own drops, made even more delicious by the only natural flavors and colors used in their production.

Handcrafted with love, their candy is one of many hidden gems Tokyo has to offer.
