Workshop schedule ; January 2017
Welcome 2017!
Hope you are all having a great お正月 New Year.
I enjoyed お餅 rice cakes with sweetened Adzuki beans for New Year celebration. It is very difficult to find rice cakes here in Montreal, especially the rice cakes made with brown rice or other grains. So I bought some from Japan and kept it for the special occasion.
Here is the schedule of my workshops in January.
All the workshop will be posted on Facebook shortly. To reserve your spot, please send me a message or private message on Facebook. If you have any questions, reach me through email or Facebook.

Valentine's day is coming soon! Wouldn't it be a great gift to make your own raw chocolate infused with all your love, using some secret ingredients for your loved ones?
Raw cacao is one of the highest sources of antioxidants in the world, and was treated as gold in the Aztec and Mayan era. It has numerous benefits for both mind and body.
- Ananadamide, aka the bliss molecule, will improve your mood.
- Phenethylamine, aka the love chemical, will make you feel like you are falling in love and maybe even improve libido!
We use organic, fair-trade, raw cacao and superfoods available in our nearby markets. Also, our products are free of gluten, nuts, soy, and artificial flavour or colourings.
