Shaomei Lemon & Mochi Frozen Dessert Bars Review






Fro-yo girl here. Shaomei, a Taiwanese dessert brand, has been introducing many new popsicle/ice bar flavors. On a recent trip to H Mart in Arcadia, I spotted Lemon & Mochi frozen dessert bars. A 9.9 oz box of four individually wrapped bars was $7.99, regular price. The bars are imported from Taiwan. There’s a picture of a baked lemon tart on the box and on the wrapper.

Shaomei describes Lemon & Mochi frozen dessert bars: “The double lemon taste of lemon ice cream and lemon curd bits are superimposed to create a delicate and slightly sour taste, intertwined with the crispy aroma of lemon biscuit bits and the elegant and slightly sweet taste of white chocolate crispy skin. You can chew the elastic white jade with every bite, perfectly presenting a delicate and delicious taste. An afternoon tea-style ice cream with a chewy taste.” Sounds really good, right?

Lemon & Mochi bar: As a lemon lover, I was very pleased with this bar. It’s excellent in flavor and texture. The thin white chocolate shell is sweet and crispy and it’s studded with crispy biscuit crumbs (the type of crumb that reminded me of Lotus speculoos cookies). I didn’t realize that the crumbs were from a lemon biscuit. I didn’t detect the lemon in the biscuits but that didn’t detract from my enjoyment of the bar. The interior is lemony yellow. It’s more tangy and sweet than it is sour. And it’s smooth and creamy. The mochi rice cakes are in the center of the bar (the ice cream part). They’re plain, soft, and chewy. The size is similar to the mochi you find at froyo shops.

One 70g bar is 190 calories, 11g total fat, 23g total carbs, 1g protein, and 18g total sugars. It has more sugar than their boba ice cream bars but because the lemon is tangy, it doesn’t seem as sweet.

This is the first time I’ve awarded five stars to a Shaomei bar. I hope to buy more boxes soon.

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

5 out of 5 stars.
