Origins

Traditional mochi finds its roots in Japan, although the process of steaming glutinous rice flours first began in China! Mochi is a type of Japanese rice cake, and is usually found in a bite sized form. It's a chewy dessert often with a different flavoured centre, with ice cream being a popular filling. It was traditionally served at Japanese new year, and is made during a ceremony called Mochitsuki, where it is pounded by a wooden mallet!

Mochi is incredibly popular nowadays, and it deserves all the hype it receives! Here at Manhua Cha, we have a range of mochi brands for you to try today! The Royal Family collection comes in a range of flavours, such as strawberry and matcha. We also include matcha as a flavour in our delicious boba tea kits, all of which come with ingredients and a handy bubble tea recipe for you to make your favourite beverage at home.

Flavours and Uses

There is a wide variety of flavours when it comes to mochi; from tropical mango to classic taro! Mochi is also produced in a range of different ways in order for customers to experience all the flavours that mochi can offer!
