Behold, the ube mochi!! I finally got my hands on this product after endlessly searching. My local stores were always out of it… always. I ripped the box open in the car and honey, I’m not mad about it. These are phenomenal. I get vanilla meets cotton candy meets little bits of yam vibes. The rice dough was very sweet and chewy. The ice cream was unbelievably creamy. This is definitely a step up from the traditional vanilla mochi and I thought those were great!! Have you tried these yet? Or am I the last person on the planet to try it?!

Since I’ve failed to get my hands on the new ube mochi, I decided to give these a try. I’ve never had mochi before so this was a fun experience. I really enjoyed the chewiness of the rice dough paired with the creaminess of the ice cream. These are a perfect little treat because you can have one mochi and be satisfied! Or you can be like me and eat multiple because you don’t ever want the goodness to end. I took one point off because I would have loved for the vanilla flavor to be stronger (maybe if it were vanilla bean?). I will definitely get these again and will be trying all of the flavors that TJ’s has to offer! Which mochi makes an appearance in your cart most often?!

Here are all the Trader Joe’s Mochi I have reviewed!
