Firm jelly inside, crunchy shell outside. Kohakutou is a traditional Japanese confection (Wagashi).
You just need only 4 ingredients! You can use your favorite colors to make your own favorite gemstones. Easy yet Fun! It is one of summer vacation free research project ideas in Japan 💎
It takes about a week to dry to create the crunchy shell. At this point, the sweetness becomes very mild and delicious 😋
You can use fruit juice if you want to make it in a different flavor! Have fun 👍

kanten jelly recipe 在 decocookie Youtube 的最佳解答
i made cherry blossoms "Sakura" cream Anmitsu of Wagashi;)
Anmitsu is one of Japanese dessert of Wagashi.it consits with sweet red bean paste "Anko",mochi balls "Shiratama",agar jelly "Kanten", boiled red peas "Aka-endomame".
when we add ice cream or soft-serve ice cream to,it's called "Cream Anmitsu".
this time,i arranged normal Anmitsu into Sakura flavor.Sakura Cream Anmitsu is a little salty,sweet,and has a good scent.
Sakura shaped sugar candy toppings are called "Kizato" or "Unpei" of Wagashi.they are a one of traditional sweets at tea ceremony "Sadou/Chado".the texture of Kizato/Unpei is crispy.
Anyway, Happy Easter!;)
