For beginners such as moms out there who just want to try baking bread for the first time, there are stores in Tokyo that although not specialized in baking materials, have materials and supplies for making pastries on their Baking Section.
You can check the links below for the store details. Here are some stores.
100 Yen shop/Daiso
First, I went to Daiso to look for some baking materials. They have a few items that can be useful if you’re a first-timer.
I bought some basic item that I can use for baking such as an aluminum foil pan, a measuring cup, and a spoon. Not expensive yet very useful, good for beginners.
They have also small ready to bake flour and some small and cute utensils. Daiso in Harajuku is one of the biggest shops, having plenty of thing to choose.

Tokyu Hands
Since I live near Ikebukuro, I went to check out Tokyu Hands in Ikebukuro and they have also a baking section.
They have a lot of pans and molds of different sizes. The items are similar to what you can find in the 100 Yen shop, but there are also items that you cannot find in the 100 Yen shop.
Out of the many Tokyu Hands across Tokyo, the one in Shibuya is the one that has the biggest kitchen and baking section. They have all kinds and sizes of cake tins, crumpet rings, egg rings, cookie cutters, measuring cups, thermometers, silicone spatulas, and much more.

Don Quijote is a large store that has a little bit of everything. Larger versions of these stores are called “Mega Don Quijote”.
In these stores, mostly you can find big materials like machines to use for baking. Also, you will find supplies like flour for making dough and other ingredients as well. It was nice to look around to see what they have to offer.

Greetings to all mommies I am a supermom from Philippines. Previously, I worked and lived in Dubai for seven years, until 2015 the year I moved in Japan. Currently, I am happily settled here with my Japanese husband and our 7 months old baby. I could only describe my almost 6 years of living here as a roller coaster ride more so, after I gave birth to my son. Japan had changed me in ways unimaginable. It has influence my lifestyle, my perceptions and beliefs. I was able to witness firsthand the pros and cons of living in the country. From their language, culture and ethnicity, the people, place and in work. Those years were enough to give me quite personal and memorable experiences which I would be more than delighted to share with you.
