To consume with caution is cultural in Japan, where natural resources are so sparse. The Japanese craftsmen have spent decades polishing their techniques to lengthen and thin down the so rare gold, managing to create and make the thinnest and loosest gold leaves in the world.
Skilled examiners have spent hours searching for a way to create safe and edible gold leaves, keeping the thickness and looseness of the Japanese leaves.
Horikin Ltd., the first edible gold leaf maker in Japan, has been since working with trusted sake and Japanese sweets manufacturers, offering a large choice of sizes of leaves and flakes.
