Mikawaya Strawberry Mochi with Boba Ice Cream Review

 






Fro-yo girl here. I recently found Mikawaya Strawberry Mochi Ice Cream with Boba at the Grocery Outlet. A box of six pieces was $3.99, with a list price of $6.49. I remember hearing about the new strawberry with boba ice cream, but this was my first time seeing it in a store.

I also couldn’t find any information about Mikawaya Strawberry Mochi with Boba ice cream online. The Mikawaya website doesn’t list the flavor. They must have discontinued it or maybe it was a limited-time flavor.

Mikawaya invented ice cream mochi and they had a shop in LA’s Little Tokyo for over a hundred years. Sadly, the shop closed in 2021, Mikawaya was acquired in 2015, and Mikawaya’s treats were rebranded as My Mochi. My Mochi makes a strawberry with boba mochi ice cream, possibly identical to the Mikawaya ones. You can still buy Mikawaya branded mochi ice cream AND My Mochi branded mochi ice cream.

Strawberry Mochi with Boba: The pink mochi shell was thin, soft, chewy, and sweet. It was stuffed with a sweet and creamy pink strawberry flavored ice cream with a chewy, soft, super sweet boba center. The boba part was way too sweet. It would have been better without the boba center.

One piece is 1.25 oz, 80 calories, with 1.5g total fat, 16g total carbs, 12g total sugars, and 1g protein.

You know you love me. X0 X0, fro-yo girl.

3 out of 5 stars.
