Next, you'll color the dough in delicate colors and then create beautiful decorative flowers from the dough. Finally, you'll shape the dough into balls and garnish with decorative flowers. This process requires some skill, but you'll be incredibly satisfied when you finish. Don't forget to take photos of your beautiful wagashi before eating it. You can eat it there or take it away!
