Mt Fuji’s IMOCHI is one of the best mochi ice creams, they are also referred to as Jpanese ice cream bonbons. They can be found in Japanese/Asian grocery stores and in the dessert portion of some Japanese restaurant’s menus. In grocery stores, they come in a disposal ice bag and can be had in green tea, sesame, or in an assorted offering (2x green tea, sesame, strawberry, and vanilla) for $4.50-5.99USD. I like the assorted pack, it provides a good variety of favors, it’s especially good for newbies of this delicious treat. My favorite is the sesame, but you really can’t go wrong with any of the flavors. The mochi is soft, the ice cream is flavorful and when combined it provides a pleasurable texture and flavor in every bite. Be warned, these things are addictive, you can find yourself finishing an entire bag in a matter of minutes.
these seem yammy, does the producer have a website? any online orders?
I was also trying to look for the manufactures website and come up with nothing. I know they are produced in Japan and imported / distrubited by a company in Upstate New York. Sorry, I don't think you will be able to order it online. If you live in the NY metro area, they have them in Jas Mart, Sunrise Mart, H Mart, H&Y Mart, and Mitsuwa in NJ.
big thanx for the reply!
How do you eat imochi bonbons, are you suppose to fried them? they are doughy. are they suppose to be eaten like that?
they are usually eaten like that, but i can't see why you couldn’t fry them. actually that sound like something worth trying :)
