Wagashi no Nurie Zukan(Japanese)

A coloring book of wagashi, traditional Japanese sweets, supervised by the long-established Kyoto confectioner Tsuruya Yoshinobu. It gathers classic sweets and newer favorites and follows the four seasons together with the 24 solar terms of the Japanese calendar. The sweets include sakura mochi, kashiwa mochi, minazuki, ohagi and hanabira mochi, along with Halloween and Christmas designs. Each sweet is drawn in fine detail with a dish or flowers beside it. A colored-pencil sample by Michi Imai is on the left page and the line drawing to color is on the right. The sample pages also give the story behind each sweet, its season, its type and its main ingredients. The text is in Japanese. The book is small, 180 mm tall and 165 mm wide. It has two covers, one like wrapping paper and one based on a Japanese gift paper band, so it looks like a box of sweets. Eight pages of notes on the sweets at the back are printed on colored paper.

Translated from the Japanese original.
