Clover & Caterpillar - Jouyo Manju (Wagashi)

This is a traditional Japanese sweet which is a bean paste ball wrapped with dough of grated Yamaimo & Jouyo-ko (rice flour). I made a four-leaf clover with four heart‐shaped Manju and tried to make a green caterpillar. Made heart shape Manju for a clover. They also can be sweets for St. Valentine's Day.
