Tanoshii Ramen Ya-san
Tanoshii Ramen Ya-san" is a game in which realistic-looking ramen and dumplings can be made. The difficulty level is 2 stars (the highest is 4 stars, same below).
The interesting point is the process of squeezing the "menen no moto" into the soup. It is also unique in that you can enjoy two different textures of noodles: soft noodles immediately after cooking and katamen after 10 minutes. It also looks quite ramen-like.
You can make dumplings, too.
It looks just like the real thing, but when you try it, you will have a strange experience with cola-flavored soup and cola-flavored noodles. And there's even an educational candy ramen to round out the drinking experience! ...maybe?
Kurukuru Takoyaki
Kuru Kuru Takoyaki" can make takoyaki that look just like the real thing. The difficulty level is 2 stars.
The entire process of making the dough, pouring it into the mold, placing the octopus, baking, and topping can be enjoyed. Another interesting point is that you can start by molding the ingredients (octopus).
By the way, it smells and tastes like the real thing (?) as it is "mayo sauce flavor". close. However, the smell spreads when you cook it, so turn on the ventilation fan or open a window while you work.
Tanoshii no Matsuri-ya-san
Tanoshii Matsuri-ya-san" can make four kinds of food: apple candy, potato, corn, and chocolate banana. The difficulty level is 3 stars.
A little value for money set that allows you to enjoy making four different kinds of educational snacks in one box. The fun part is wrapping the "mashubu no moto" around the chewing gum corn. Although there is a lot to do, the process itself is simple and can be enjoyed by beginners.
Rolling a colander to make corn and so on.
Or topping a chocolate banana.
You can make apple candy, too.

This set is full of "cute" things like pink, hearts, and cakes. The unique feature of this set is that two-tone cream can be squeezed out by filling the squeezing bag with two different kinds of cream. The process itself is simple, including making the cream, squeezing, and topping, but it takes a lot of time and effort to create a high-quality cake.
Soft serve ice cream is a little difficult to find.
The cream can be squeezed in different ways or topped with different toppings, making this a dish that is worth rearranging.
Crepe shop
Crepe Ya-san" can make crepes that look just like the real thing. Difficulty level is 4 stars.
The interesting point is the process of rolling out the dough with the "Kururin Parts. This was unexpectedly difficult, and it took a lot of time to make the dough round and round. When I spread it out, I thought, "It worked! But when you lent it in the microwave, it shrinks and becomes distorted....
flail (for threshing grain)
The toppings also require good taste. The trick is to gather the fruits and toppings at the top of the dough as much as possible. If you get it right, you will end up with a very cute crepe.
Taiyaki & Dango

Every task is easy, yet the quality of the finished product is high! And they're all rather tasty! It tastes as good as it looks, even though it has the feel of a candy bar. The taiyaki was just as good as usual.

The interesting point is the process of cutting the buns into chunks and inserting the ingredients.
crunching sound (e.g. of cooking rice in a pan)

doughnut
Doughnuts," which can make realistic-looking doughnuts. The difficulty level is 1.5 stars.
All you have to do is knead the dough, mold it, and put on the toppings! It is also interesting that two colors of dough can be combined to make animal doughnuts.

I can make something like this.
Since there is little work and no mess, we recommend it for children who are trying out educational confectionery for the first time. And the finished product is just as cute!
Tanoshii Sushi-ya-san
Tanoshii Sushi Ya-san" is a sushi restaurant where you can make sushi that looks just like the real thing. The difficulty level is 3 stars.
The fun part is making salmon roe! The drops that you drop turn into salmon roe that looks just like the real thing. It was so much fun that I kept making it until I ran out of liquid.
The rice is like a fluffy jelly-like gummy substance.... The tuna and egg filling was grape flavored, and the salmon roe was a jelly to enjoy the crunchy texture. It would be a great souvenir to take overseas.
Let's make it! Bento!

Tsukurou! Bento!" The The difficulty level is 3.

Flatten it and it's a panda!
Incidentally, onigiri is soda, sesame shio is grape, broccoli is muscat, tamagoyaki is lemon, taco wiener is strawberry, and karaage is orange-flavored, giving it the feel of THE educational snack.

The interesting point is the process of frying shrimp like the real thing. The difficulty level is a little higher than the others. I think it was a little difficult to make the fried shrimp and omelette beautifully.

The flavors are: omelette is mixed juice, fried shrimp is orange, chicken rice is soda, fries are apple, meatballs are chocolate flavored, and ketchup is strawberry. I'm not surprised anymore.
