Dango

Soft and chewy Japanese dumplings, often served as part of desserts like matcha parfait or on their own.

Mochi is a Japanese rice cake crafted from mochigome, a specific type of glutinous rice. The preparation involves steaming the rice, pounding it into a paste, and then shaping it. While enjoyed throughout the year, mochi holds particular cultural significance as a traditional food for the Japanese New Year.
