Yamadaya's Miyajima flagship keeps a second-floor studio where a 30 minute class puts you at a cast-iron maple-leaf mould, pouring batter and filling two momiji manju under an instructor's eye.
TipWeekday sessions start at 10:30, 13:00, 14:15 and 15:30; book online by the day before or ask at the second-floor counter for same-day space.
The crafts cooperative's centre near the Miyajima ferry terminal runs 30 to 45 minute momiji manju sessions on its second floor, with a craftsman guiding you through the hand-operated iron moulds.
TipHands-on slots run 9:00 to 16:00 and payment is cash only; pair the baking with the shakushi rice-scoop stamping workshop on the third floor.
Traveling Spoon books you into Machiko's Hiroshima home, where she teaches two or three family dishes, from sesame dressing ground in a mortar to hand-rolled sushi, before you all eat together.
TipThe cooking class slot runs 10:00 to 13:00 with the meal included; the lunch-only option skips the teaching, so pick the class if you want the technique.
