Have you heard of Popin’ Cookin’? It’s the latest madness from Japan – DIY candy kits to make tiny food that you can actually eat! The mind boggles.
How they taste I do not really want to know, but if you are braver than me, From Japan With Love have a few ranges available including cupcakes, donuts and bento boxes. There’s also some videos on YouTube.
What do you reckon – cute or crazy?
Updated 2020: This shop is now closed – find DIY candy kits at The Best Kawaii Shops Worldwide instead.
Marceline is the co-founder and editor of Super Cute Kawaii and the author of The Super Cute Book of Kawaii. She lives by the seaside in Scotland in a flat full of kawaii, creating cute character goods as Asking For Trouble, working on endless craft projects and playing Nintendo.
