Toraya Niagari Mochi

A simple and warm Japanese sweet, 'Niagari Mochi,' made by the long-established Toraya Honpo in Fukuyama. This item, perfect for accompanying tea, consists of soft gyuhi (sweet rice cake) generously coated in kinako (roasted soybean powder). The name is said to derive from the 'Niagari Odori,' a Bon Odori dance tradition in the Bingo region. The name subtly reflects the rhythm of local festivals and daily life. Toraya Honpo is a confectioner in Fukuyama with a 400-year history, said to have been founded in the year 1620. The soft, chewy texture of the gyuhi combined with the fragrant aroma of kinako creates an unpretentious yet addictive flavor—a nostalgic taste you'll reach for whenever you want to take a relaxing break.
