Mochi Ice Cream
Yesterday I happened to tweet about having strawberry Mochi Ice Cream for dessert and a friend of mine wanted to know what Mochi ice cream was; I realized a lot of people have probably never had the pleasure of trying this delicious ice cream treat, so I just had to blog about it! Mochi ice cream is a Japanese confection made from mochi (decimated sticky rice) with an ice cream filling; flavors include chocolate, strawberry (my favorite), coffee, vanilla, mango, green tea and red bean. You can find Mochi ice cream at your local Japanese market, Trader Joe's, and Whole Foods, but I would suggest purchasing Mochi ice cream from Marukai 98¢ Plus Store (under the brand name Maeda-En Mochi) if you live here in the South Bay, where a box of six is only $2.98. But I must warn in advance, they can be very addicting!

Thanks on the info on these delish looking treats.. I had no clue what you were talking about... and again I learn something new lol... Ummmm!!! this treat looks really yummie!! like the funky colors too!! I am going to have to try this soon.. Luciano is an ice cream freak just like his mommy .. :)
They are so yummy, I’m addicted! I think Luciano will love them; JD goes crazy when he sees me eating them, so I give him a little taste and then he does his happy dance, its hilarious!
thanks for the tip!
I never knew they sold it at Marukai. It's usualy almost $5 a box at other places.
Ya, they have them by the check-out line and your right everywhere else the cost $5 plus! I think I’m going to stock up this week, so leave me some, LOL!
