I tried to punching with gold leaf pasted by Kanazawa craftsman with cutouts of forest animals or with Kanazawa Masahisa's 'Maroon of Forest of Gold Forest'

Kanazawa's Japanese-style confectionery shop "Mame and Kanazawa Masahisa" is known for castella "Kimasara" gilded by Kanazawa craftsmen. Since I heard that gold scraps are being sold at JR Tokyo Station, " Kimishirasa Furi no Maron " cut out into the shape of "forest animals" for the autumn season is sold as a souvenir soon I tried to punching an animal in the forest.

We arrived at Mansuma Kanazawa and Tokyo Gransta store. The shop is on the Yaesu mouth side of the JR Tokyo station premises.

Mames and Kanazawa Masahisa's classic menu "Kimisasara"

Kimushorara "Maron of the Forest" which was die-cut into the shape of the animal for the autumn period limited time was sold.

So I got Maron in the forest (1620 yen including tax) as a souvenir.

It was a package of autumn specification that squirrels and rabbits and chestnuts were drawn.

Cut in "Forest animals". It seems to be good to eat while enjoying die cutting.

In addition, the expiration date of Maron in the forest was longer than two weeks.

Slide the black box out of the box and take out ......

Carefully take out the sponge.

It is hard to break white paper, so it seems better to cut with white scissors.

When removing the wrapping paper, Kimurayasu appeared from inside.

When white paper was removed, a sparkling gold leafy castella appeared. The gold leaf was stretched up to 1 micron, "Kanazawa craftmanship laying them one by one" is said to be "one sheet pasting finish".

Three kinds of animals in the forest. "Bear" from the top. It is a pity that a crack had got into the gilt on the way home.

The middle is a "rabbit"

The end is "squirrel". The squirrel seems to have avoided big cracks.

Apart from gold foil, it looks like a common castella. However, in Mame or Toshihisa, using eggs sticking to the "Egroyal" feed, whisking yolk and white together, "co-standing" method seems to be adopted by craftsmen baking one by one.

Although it seems to be good to eat while pulling out the mold, you can not suppress the urge "I want to die-cut completely for all three". So I tried challenging to remove the mold by transferring it to a big Bon festival.

First of all, it is a strategy to strip out with the fruit knife cut vertically.

Since the clipping process is done firmly to the bottom, it will be possible to clean up the part with complicated shapes carefully ... .... However, perseverance is required work.

In addition, since there is a cut part for each animal, it is relatively easy to attack from there.

In the knife, it can not respond to a fine shape, switching to Takoyaki's "Arama".

As I slowly passed through the needle, I was able to cope well with small parts.

In addition, since the paper on the bottom has been cut, you can pull out only animals cleanly.

The power of the astronaut is tremendous. As I trace the border, ...

Successfully pushing down the pattern and outer part.

As I got used to it, I was able to peel off the sides gently with my hands while using the awls.

In addition, the gold leaf of the removed castle sticked to the plate etc on occasion.

That is why the mold release of all three kinds of animals was completed.

The difficulty level is difficult in the order of bear → rabbit → squirrel, so it may be better to challenge in this order.

Sobh made a finished gold dashi · marron in the forest. Putting a fork in a gilded surface shooks a bit.

The taste is sweeter than the general Castella. A considerable sweet tooth is satisfied level. However, thanks to Eglo Royal or elegance, it is a distinctive taste, and I knew that being an exclusive castella just by eating a bite.
