Decoden is a popular trend in Japan deliciously decorating items with fake icing, cutely topped with various charms of characters, bows, rhinestones, food. 
The workshop includes your pick of 10 charms per person. We encourage you to bring charms or small figures of characters you may like to theme your decoden around, if you have them.
