Ever since I saw delectable food samples in the windows of Japanese restaurants and learned they were made of wax, I’ve always wondered how they were created. How do they make wax look like food?
The Japanese town of Gujo in Gifu prefecture is where the craft originated and you can visit and see demonstrations of how they are made. In this video, a man shows how they make tempura and cabbage samples that look edible!
