Candy Art in Tokyo! Amezaiku at Ameshin
Amezaiku is an amazing Japanese candy art where skilled craftsman make amazing edible creations. Today we went to Ameshin in the Solamachi Shopping Area to watch them make amazing works of art out of candy. From beautiful goldfish to a magnificent white lion, you can see the artist shape these beautiful works of art. Tyler was absolutely stunned by how quickly and effectively they were made. Also pretty yummy!
Amezaiku was supposedly imported from China in the late Heian period and was most likely used for candy offerings for temples. Once the base ingredient, mizuame became more widely available, the art spread all over Japan. Many of the artisans held performances all over Edo (now Tokyo). Amezaiku does require a lot of skill and pain tolerance due to the temperature that the candy must be formed at. The amezaiku artists have to mold the 90 degree Celsius candy as quickly as they can before it hardens. Often the artists also paint their creations with edible dyes to give the finished work more character. Nowadays, you can still see the occasional amezaiku artist at festivals.
Ameshin has two locations. One in Solamachi shopping center near Skytree tower and another just north of Asakusa near Sumida Park. The one in Solamachi sells a lot of the craft candies they make and also have performances throughout the day, while the one near Sumida Park holds workshops and exhibits many of the amezaiku. The workshop costs about 3000 yen per person and takes around an hour and a half. You cannot buy amezaiku at the second shop, only at the Solamachi location. The amezaiku's price varies depending on size and design, but they can be anywhere from 1000 to 4000 yen. They also do order-made crafts which can be over 10,000 yen. Performances at the Solamachi location are from 11 a.m. to 6 p.m., but the artists sometimes have days off. For more details please check the following schedule.

Tokyo Solamachi View — Looking up at SKYTREE 360°
Took a moment to soak in the amazing vibe of looking up at TOKYO SKYTREE in the evening. This is the courtyard area of Tokyo Solamachi, a shopping mall that even features an aquarium and planetarium! It's one of the largest commercial complexes in Tokyo.
In the courtyard, a dreamy song is looping to help set the mood. The song that plays here is Wandering by okamotonoriaki. You can listen to the full track on Apple Music.
