Traditional wooden molds - Kashikigata
Traditional wooden molds, known as kashikigata, used in crafting Wasanbon are meticulously handcrafted by skilled artisans—a technique passed down through generations. These craftsmen carve intricate designs into the wood, transforming a simple plank into a stunning mold. The artistry involved in creating these molds is truly remarkable. Using an array of chisels and tools, they fashion detailed patterns, including motifs such as cherry blossoms and Mt. Fuji, ensuring that Wasanbon captivates both the palate and the eye.
Using these handcrafted wooden molds, Wasanbon sugar is delicately pressed into intricate shapes, resulting in sweets that are as visually stunning as they are flavorful. The versatility of the molds allows for an array of design choices, making every piece of Wasanbon a unique work of art. This harmonious blend of aesthetic beauty and refined taste makes Wasanbon an ideal gift or souvenir, offering a genuine taste of Japan's rich cultural heritage.
In Kagawa and Tokushima Prefectures, the tradition of Wasanbon molds is struggling to survive, with artisans such as Mr. Ichihara dedicated to preserving this time-honored technique. However, the number of successors is dwindling, and Mr. Ichihara, one of just two remaining artisans in Japan, has been honored with the title of Traditional Craftsman.
