For Christmas month, whenpigswiggle will light up the season 
by sharing light food posts. ;)

Above photo taken from Mochi Sweets FB page.


I tried Mochi Sweets in hopes that it would be as good as Mochiko.

I tried this flavor.  

I was not impressed. 

The ice cream to mochi ratio was not the same as the display.

 I was so unimpressed that I was not driven to stop and take a photo 
of what it actually looks like inside.

Mochiko mochi ice cream

Mochi ice cream: 

A Japanese confection made from mochi (pounded sticky rice) with an ice cream filling. 

December 2012,
I was doing a last minute Christmas shopping in G4 and I saw this at Food Choices.

Eenie meenie miney moe.

Opted for the New Recipe:

ღ Potato Chip Chocolate P75

Look at all that ice cream and just a thin layer of mochi.

Next time I saw another Mochiko was when I went to Shangri-la last May 2013.

Make sure to follow the instructions on the packet:

Please wait a few minutes or when mochi is soft to the touch before biting into it.

Or else you will be biting into a really hard mochi and get almost nothing off 

and taste nothing but ice because of how cold it is.

ღ Cookie dough P75

Indeed, good things come to those who wait.
