“Mochi started off as a holiday treat to celebrate the New Year during the mochitsuki ceremony,” says Genesa Rodriguez, manager at KOMÉ. “Traditional mochi was made with the glutinous rice ball with a red bean paste center. In the twentieth century, it evolved to have an ice cream center.”
Since then, mochi has become one of the newest “trend” treats, sought out by foodies and bloggers alike. While the variety of flavor offerings is almost endless, KOMÉ has three that are always available—raspberry crunch, green tea and salted caramel—as well as one seasonal rotation. Enjoy creamy ice cream wrapped in the sweetened rice flour of your choice.
Order it along with something on KOMÉ's after-dinner drink menu, which consists of espresso, cappuccino, hot tea, cognacs and cordials, dessert wines and single malt beverages.
