How the DIY mochi works: you choose from 20 fillings such as yam paste, red bean paste, purple potato paste, or black sesame paste. You can also stuff your mochi with fresh fruit such as mango and strawberry, as well as vanilla and chocolate ice cream if you’d like. The end result is something similar to a daifuku. Prices start from RM3 for one filling, and go up to RM7 for three fillings.

Then, dress them up with Oreo or Biscoff crumbs, cream cheese, or even savoury options such as pork floss and salted egg yolk. No matter what combination you come up with, each mochi is freshly wrapped and made on the spot, according to exactly how you order it.
