Why you should go: So far I've only tried the Dark Chocolate Truffle Mochi and a couple of the assorted chocolates and they are DELICIOUS! I got this as a gift from a family member, so these are the only things I was able to try...so far. According to their January 2014 pricelist, it costs $7.25 for the 5-piece box I received. The mochi is made fresh daily and you have to eat it within 3 days of purchase. The outer mochi layer is slightly sweet and chewy. The inner layer is a combination of chocolate ganache and a piece of chocolate. The ganache is smooth and silky and pairs perfectly with the chocolate piece. It's not sickeningly sweet and is the perfect accompaniment to a cup of coffee or tea. I can't wait to try the rest of their sweets. To be continued...
Tips: They tend to run out quickly and suggest to call to place your order. According to their "Mochi Care Instructions" it should be eaten within 2-3 days or immediately placed in a freezer ziploc and frozen. When freezing, Do not microwave to thaw! Thaw by letting it reach room temperature.
