Why You Should Visit
For Gummy Day on September 3, the Japan Gummy Association and GUMMIT — a joint project of 14 confectionery makers — turn KITTE Osaka, right by Osaka Station, into a house of gummies for two days. The draw is the Gummy Buffet, where ¥500 buys you a fill of whatever you like. Around it are maker booths from Kanro, UHA Mikakuto, Nobel and Meiji among others, a gummy map that walks you through the building, and a photo spot in the sunken garden. It all happens indoors, so rain is no obstacle and it is easy to do with kids.
