The newest fun treat from Japan is the Japanese Edible Pictures Candy series, which gives you a lollipop with incredibly beautiful Japanese art on it, which you can actually eat. Each sucker comes with a beautiful image of Japan inside, recreated in edible sugar, and a card explaining what the image is in Japanese and English. The flavor is delicious strawberry. This candy features a traditional ukiyoe image of "Red Fuji," a beautiful scene of Mt. Fujim one of the most famous images of Japan, created by Hokusai for his "36 Views of Fuji" collection.
