Mochis are small Japanese sweets prepared made from sticky rice flour , which makes them naturally gluten -free . Their texture that is both soft and slightly elastic makes it a unique treat. But, the mochi, we like or we don't like it. The texture may surprise: in the family 2 of us are not fans of this little dessert because the very soft texture can surprise. I admit, I love it! In this exotic version, they are filled with a smooth cream with mango and coconut , bringing a fruity and delicately sweet touch. But you can stuff them with what you like: a fruit, a vanilla cream, spread and even a sorbet to get iced mochis, easy to make at home, you just have to take the blow to seal the dough, These mochis are perfect for a light dessert or a gourmet break. A real trip to the heart of Japanese pastry !
