Various shapes of Amezaiku
Various shapes created by taking advantage of the characteristics of candy as a material. Cuteness and charm born from deformation. Taste of nostalgia.
Worldwide Demonstration
A lump of candy changes shape one after another. Demonstration of Amezaiku craftsmanship where you can see and enjoy the process. The most interesting part of Amezaiku is to watch the process of forming the shape.
About onsite demonstration
Surprise to see for the first time? The good thing about Amezaiku is that it can be enjoyed by both children and the elderly. Fun to see up close.

Amezaiku was thought to be a "fading traditional art" when I started. Still doing the same old-fashioned Amezaiku I have been doing since I started.

There are similar things around the world to shape candy into different forms.
One of the characteristics of Amezaiku is to use Japanese-style scissors in shaping process.
