Syocoramochi Wagashi is also known as Chocolat Mochi. It is a pure chocolate wrapped in the soft rice cake topped with Cocoa powder. It came in 6 pieces in a box for $12.00. This is a definitely must try for all chocolate lover. Good quality pure chocolate was wrapped in a thin layer of mochi. When you slowly bite it to break the skin of mochi then you will get to taste the awesomeness of the chocolate filling within. A good try but an expensive one.

You can choose to have 12 pieces for $20.00 too. Hakutoumochi is a Wagashi

I saw these on the Takashimaya brochure and I just had to get them. They are made for the Mooncake Festival and they cost quite a pretty penny. There is like 12 bunnies in the box. Oh my god.
