  • KASHIWA MOCHI (Available in stores only)
Kashiwa mochi is a traditional Japanese sweet typically eaten during Children’s Day on May 5th. It consists of a soft, chewy rice cake (mochi) filled with sweet red bean paste and wrapped in an oak leaf. The oak leaf is not usually eaten, but it symbolizes prosperity and the continuation of the family line, as oak trees do not shed old leaves until new ones grow.

Kashiwa mochi is a seasonal rice cake available only in early summer.
