This shop by the way can be found in LITTLE TOKYO in Los Angeles. I wish we had one in our Japan town, but nothing like this as yet. Maybe they will branch out to include all of the Japan towns, including San Jose.

Also, Mochi can contain ice cream inside, like vanilla or green tea ice cream. They are certainly a wonderful treat from Japan.
