Twenty-eight-year-old Japanese candymaker Shinri Tezuka specializes in the traditional art of
amezaiku, the cutting, pulling, and bending of molten sugar into elaborate lollipops.
Amezaiku originated in the 8th Century, and Shinri is one of the last of the candy artisans. He sells his amazing
amezaiku at his Tokyo candy store,
Asakusa Amezaiku Ameshin. Here are some of his creations. Are they too beautiful to eat? Probably not, since they taste as good as they look.
Here’s Shinri Tezuka in action. Watch the magic happen!
