Welcome. We don't get many humans here. At the end of Gloaming Lane, at the very edge of the otherworld, is the Amberglow Candy Store, open only between the full moon and the new moon. Behind its cozy caramel-wood facade is Kogetsu, the store’s half-fox owner, whose wagashi confections promise to change his customers' lives for the better.

Kogetsu’s door is always open to anyone in need of comfort — a lovesick teenage girl, a painfully shy estate agent, a struggling first-time mother. But who is this mysterious owner? A half-fox spirit he may be. But why is he so interested in his customers and their emotions? And why does each sweet have a recommended ‘dosage’?

Like the heart of the chewiest caramel, life’s most valuable lessons always take time to uncover, and Kogetsu’s customers are about to find more than they bargained for. The Amberglow Candy Store is a charming and cozy fable from Japan, showing that help is always available for those who seek it.
