I actually expected the candy to nest inside each other but stacking them adds such a nice shape to the completed candy. I love those wooden moulds, they're so beautifully crafted.
A small note for you friend, "woody" is used to describe a texture, like biting into artichoke - it's a fibrous texture. You'd want to use "wooden" to describe something that's actually made of wood. Great video, thank you so much for sharing! I may have to try making these. ❤
gorgeous! i didnt expect them to stack, but the candy would look nicer on an altar that way. those wooden molds look so easy to use, and the result is amazing.
Almost like mooncake, sans filling. I would love to see this done in a mooncake mould too, especially the extra elaborate ones to see how the details pop!
Although my country don't celebrate Bon Season (we do have 'Hungry Ghost Festival' here by the way), it's nice to learn something new about Japanese culture and tradition. In Asia there are many traditional delicacies made using wooden molds. In my region of South East Asia we have 'Putu Kacang' which is made using mung beans flour, sugar (the ingredient that hold it together) and a little bit of water. Same with this and other wooden molds, the mix is packed tightly before it is knocked out of the mold and left to dry. You'll be surprised to hear that any kind of dried mix like this wagashi and 'Putu Kacang' would last for a long time without any fungi or yeast forming on its surface. The only thing that would happen is it would lose it's hardness after a long time and crumble.
thank you!!;) i didn't know about Putu Kacang until now,and i searched it,so,it's so similar,isn't it? thank you for letting me know about your culture:))
@@decocookie Wait till you search about 'Bahulu Ikan'!('Bahulu' is a type of cake, and 'Ikan' means fish) You'll be surprised how much it looked like the Japanese 'Taiyaki'. The only difference is the batter's ingredients and we don't put any filling inside. My mom used to work at this traditional cake shop when I was in high school, and they used to make Bahulu Ikan there. Usually it was given as gift during wedding. I highly recommend searching for 'Almond London'. It's a western style biscuit usually popular during Eidul Fitri. The recipe is very easy to make. There's many food that shared similarities between each other. Like 'Cucur Udang', which looks like 'Kakiage'. Here we serve it with peanut sauce, but 'Kakiage' is served with rice. I hope by sharing these will help you find someone new ideas for your video.
Actually, putu kacang or mung bean pastry is a Chinese traditional food which we made as offering for our ancestors. It was brought and introduced to southeast Asia by Chinese immigrants.
@@lizyliz970 My grandma on my father's side is Chinese. Though she doesn't know how to speak the language, and knows nothing about it's culture, the gene's strong enough to last a few generations. Through cultural integration with all the other races, we have been serving many types of delicacy including Chinese and Indian food. Especially during festive season. I'm glad to be born in a country that is a melting pot of various culture.
This is my favorite video of all time on RUclips. It is also the very first video of yours I watched. I am not a big asmr watcher but when I saw this video it relaxed me so much. The sounds of the sugar in the bowl, and watching the delicate but deliberate movements of your hands with the way it would handle the sugar, pat the starch powder, and fill in the molds. I watch this to help me fall asleep at night. I hope you will continue to make wasanbon videos showing this same process and using these giant yellow bowls 😌😌😌💖💖💖
If I'm not entirely mistaken, & I could be, I think that these kinds of sweets are meant to be used for memorial offerings. They're not really meant to be consumed. Maybe by the spirits, but not by the living anyway. ;) Think of them as their culture's version of Candy Skulls.
Bon Season is the month when Japanese believe their ancestor's spirits are coming back to visit them. They wil prepare a variety of foods to offer to the spirits, and hold dance ceremonies called 'Bon Odori' to appease the spirits. They would also float special lanterns on the rivers to guide the souls back to the underworld. The tradition came from Buddhist belief, mixed with Shinto influence. Outside of Japan, you can see the celebration in areas that have a lot of Japanese residents. You can see it portrayed in many anime and manga. It's an indispensable part of Japanese culture. I learn most of it from watching anime and reading mangas.
@@hellenjaneThanks, I don't live in Japan so pretty much what I learnt is from anime, manga and internet. In terms of culture, Japan portrayed their own ti the world vigorously through many media. If you could get your hands on Japan Walker or any other magazines like Rurubu Omotenashi, that would be nice. It will give you a closer look on Japan and interesting places and events.
Muhammad Zulkhairi Mohd Nasir sounds very similar to the original concept of Halloween or dia de los muertos / All Souls’ Day in the west ! This candy reminds me of the sugar skull candy, or the treats given out at Halloween, i imagine originally the treats at Halloween must’ve been offering to the spirits, probably why we dress up as scary things and come to the door to get them I’ve never actually really thought about that until just now.
@@jessscastroo Not just Kubo... Any Japanese influenced anime or manga or movie, that has it's character dress in a kimono for a special Summer Night festival, where they buy food from stands in a 'Jinja' (Shinto temple) and watch fireworks at the end of the festival night. Not every place holds a Bon Odori dance as it varies by region, and not many region has the river to perform the lantern floating ceremony. Usually they just hold 'Summer Festivals' where they sell food and watch fireworks. Dubbed animes didn't state the name of the festival while anime with subtitle would call it 'Summer Festival', but all Japanese will know it's Bon Festival. If you watch closely, there are influence of Bon festival and spirit communication in other media. Final Fantasy X for example, has one of it's main character, 'Yuna' that can perform a ceremony called 'Sending' to appease the soul of the deceased. Her clothing also resembled kimonos worn by people during Bon festival. One of the best Bon festival scene is from Pokemon (Ghost of Maiden Peak), 'Your Name' (Bon is about the bond between souls anyway) and 'Jigoku Shoujo' (This anime carry the influence of bon heavily) So, The Japanese are very fond of their Bon Festival. It's like putting miso or soy sauce in their dishes. After all they can't show 'Kanamara Matsuri' to everyone, so, Bon is the perfect representation of Japanese culture to the world.
Yeah almost all country that has China influences have these, ie. I’m in Thai and we used to have China Immigrants so it would make sense to have these treats common in Chinese-Thai families.
This is so lovely! Once I tried some cute sweets selling in Conbini for Obon Holidays period, and though I didn’t get the hang of the true meaning of this fest, and what celebrates exactly, but the sweets tasted sooo good even if it was mass products from the markets. I feel like your way of making it is a bit different from the form I had back then, but still your works remind me of a good memory in JP. Keep up your nice work!
@@decocookie You're welcome! I really enjoy your videos, I love seeing different foods being made and yours always look amazing and delicious! Wish I could try them all! :)
I remember going somewhere eating this with fresh green tea... I never learnt the name until I saw the candy in the thumbnail, dude, the candy was delish and paired amazingly with the tea. To this day I still crave wagashi (I have now learnt the name~) and fresh green tea.
So gorgeous! In the description you said you offer it to the dead, but what happens after? Is it shared between the family, eaten individually, or just discarded? Thank you for the amazing video as always!!! ♡
Ooh it reminds me of the Taiwanese desserts. We Vietnamese call it Banh In. Meaning printed cakes I like them we usually coconut flavor. Tapioca flour cakes are good
It looks gorgeous 😍 but i'm really sceptical about how it tastes and it's texture... As you put in starch i thought it will be steamed. But well it wasn't I think because if the sugar it won't really go bad so it would be a really cool ornament, but i can't imagine to eat it, i belive it would taste like starchy sugar.. Not my cup of tea😅

小さい時にずっと食べたくて食べたくてやっと食べさせて貰ったことあったけど
思ったより美味しくなくてびっくりした思い出😅
お店によってかなり味が違う(色素や水で変わる)ので、もしかしたらたまたま美味しくないところに当たったのかもしれませんね。美味しいところの落雁は感動しますよ。
高めの和菓子屋の落雁は美味いよ
砂糖だけで甘味と言うよりはでんぷん的な甘さであまり甘くないですしね
もういちど食べてみたらいいかも
実は私も苦手でした笑
でも、金沢にある諸江屋さんの濃茶落雁を食べて、初めて落雁って美味しいのもあるんだって思ったんですよ。それからは美味しい落雁を探して…略(ﾟ∇^*)
なんか想像してた甘さと違って、おばあちゃんに残りを食べてもらった記憶が…
今思い返すと、確かに砂糖的な甘さではなく、でんぷん的な甘さですね。
お盆が近いので買って食べてみようかな(＾ω＾)
What exactly does this taste like? Is it just straight sugar flavor? Or is it different? It's so beautiful, and I am really curious about this sweet.
like sweet nothingness
All that work for something that just tastes like sugar. I wouldn't eat it it's too beautiful

Oh I see! That makes total sense. I just have heard that wagashi is sometimes eaten, so I was curious if this was one of those treats.
@@dilonnarutherford2182 there's a lot types of wagashi. Maybe it's just for this one that is not for consume.
