THE BEST MOCHI ICE CREAM FLAVORS

You may have heard that your favorite flavor of ice cream can tell you a lot about your personality, and this is exactly the same with mochi ice cream. While we’re all accustomed to the theory that if you love vanilla you’re pretty basic (which is wrong – vanilla-lovers, we get you, people just don’t understand the beauty of creamy vanilla), there is some truth to your personality influencing your preferences in mochi ice cream flavors. If you’re impulsive and energetic, you instinctively choose coffee; if you’re adventurous and love new experiences, you will adore our Red Bean mochi ice cream, and if you’re loyal you will never say no to chocolate.

Around the world, different ice cream flavors are considered to be the most popular, so we chose seven of the world’s best for our mochi ice creams, to cater to everyone through a delicious morsel of chewy creamy ice cream. All of our mochi ice creams at Sweety are made with real ingredients – there are no preservatives or flavorings here. Instead, there is fresh milk and cream, and real fruits, chocolate, matcha, you name it, so your mochi ice cream will be a bite of full genuine flavor. 

Is your favorite in our top seven best mochi ice cream flavors? Read on to find out!

Simply Strawberry

Fresh, fruity and sweet, there is nothing simple about strawberry. It is the world’s most popular berry, and is much loved throughout the summer months when juicy and ripe. Strawberries and cream is such an iconic flavor combination and that is what we aimed to recreate with our strawberry mochi ice cream recipe. We took incredibly sweet strawberries, and real Californian milk and cream fresh from the farm, and combined them for that indulgent creamy strawberry ice cream flavor. Wrapped in the chewy mochi, this strawberry ice cream is the perfect treat for a warm summer’s day. So, if you love nothing more than soaking up those rays of sun, and you’re romantic with a nostalgic streak, then you will love our Simply Strawberry mochi ice cream.

  

Alphonso Mango

When it comes to fruit flavors, you’re either a berry lover or a devotee to the tropics. This is why we developed our Alphonso Mango mochi ice cream flavor as the light and refreshing taste immediately whisks you away to that perfect sandy beach with a coconut cocktail in your hand. Alphonso mangoes taste extraordinary, and have been nicknamed ‘the king of the mangoes’ as they are considered to be the superior breed with their intense fragrant flavor. So, we couldn’t resist combining that flavor in our mochi ice cream! If you love mango ice cream, you probably know the cliché – you love to escape, to have adventures, and taste refreshing freedom in tropical flavors. Let our Alphonso Mango mochi ice cream transport you to paradise!

Classic Chocolate

Rich and indulgent like a generous millionaire, chocolate is of course the classic ice cream flavor because it is the favorite of so many around the world! While some chocolate ice creams can taste a little bit fake, and not really like chocolate, Sweety’s Classic Chocolate mochi ice cream is the real deal. Made with premium Dutch-processed cocoa powder from a 150-year-old family-operated business in the San Francisco Bay Area, this intense chocolate flavor has been perfected for over a century! The velvety soft mochi ice cream is bittersweet, so this is for the loyal chocolate lovers who know quality chocolate ice cream when they taste it! 

 

Madagascar Vanilla

Nowadays, vanilla means plain and boring. Which is ridiculous. Did you know that vanilla was considered to be the most exotic spice of the 17th century in the French royal court? Madagascan vanilla was treated with such respect and adoration, then sadly, in the 20th century techniques were discovered to copy the flavor which became vanilla essence and was added to EVERYTHING. This was the beginning of the end for vanilla, and we all believe we know what ‘real vanilla’ tastes like. But we really don’t – premium Madagascan vanilla beans are full of deep, rich aromas, and creamy warmth. Real vanilla is irresistible. We use Madagascan vanilla beans in our delicious mochi ice cream. Once you taste it, you will never think vanilla is plain again!

 


Matcha Green Tea

Matcha is such a popular mochi ice cream flavor, particularly across Asia, yet it is different to the other flavors on this list because it isn’t as traditionally sweet. There are slight notes of earthiness to matcha – which is green tea leaves ground into a deeply flavored fine powder – deliciously contrasting the ice cream’s creamy texture, and the combination is incredibly refreshing on a hot day. Our matcha mochi ice cream is made from real non-GMO matcha green tea powder which we source from Japan, therefore we are providing you with the genuine intense flavor, not a weak copy. If you prefer your sweets to have a more complex flavor, then our Matcha Green Tea mochi ice cream is perfect for you!


 

Vietnamese Coffee

Vietnamese coffee is a pretty special flavor, and one that I recommend everyone to try! It is often served over ice with a shot of condensed milk – you see what I mean about it being special! Vietnamese coffee beans are roasted until very dark, so there is a bitterness to them, but to balance the flavor, sugar and cacao is added so the drink becomes full-bodied and rich. We have done the same with our Vietnamese coffee mochi ice cream by mixing a little cocoa powder into the freshly-brewed coffee to enrich the flavor. Coffee ice cream lovers are usually energetic and ambitious, but as with our Vietnamese Coffee mochi ice cream, you also know when to relax and enjoy the flavor.




Azuki Red Bean

Our Azuki Red Bean mochi ice cream holds a special place in our hearts here at Sweety because it was one of the first flavors we developed when we opened in 1978. Red Bean was not a well-known flavor in the US at the time and, as we couldn’t find the traditional ice creams of Japan, we made them ourselves, starting with Red Bean. Azuki is a variety of red beans, and it is a beloved sweet flavor in Japan, especially in ice cream. For us, our creamy and slightly nutty Azuki Red Bean mochi ice cream is a taste of nostalgia! We couldn’t recommend it more, so if you’re an intrepid foodie with an adventurous palette, you will love our Red Bean mochi ice cream!
