Mochidoki
At the foundation of our mochi ice cream is the mochi itself. Mochi is a rice cake molded from steamed mochigome, a short-grained glutinous rice commonly found in east Asia. The cooked rice is kneaded to form a dough that can be reshaped for various uses both savory and sweet. The finished mochi has a unique texture that the Japanese describe as ふわふわ (“fuwa-fuwa”), meaning “soft and pillowy.” Sugar is added for a subtle sweetness that accentuates the delicate flavor of rice.
