Maison du Mochi

At Maison du Mochi, the focus is singular and specialized: authentic Japanese mochi made with artisanal care and attention to traditional methods. These confections represent the essence of Japanese wagashi (traditional sweets), featuring the distinctive texture that makes mochi so beloved—a soft, chewy exterior with a slight resistance that gives way to reveal the sweet filling within. The signature offering centers on mochi filled with Anko, a sweet paste made from Azuki beans that forms the traditional heart of Japanese mochi. This isn't a Western interpretation but rather an authentic representation of the confection as it's enjoyed in Japan. The texture is paramount—achieving that perfect balance of softness and chewiness requires precise technique and quality ingredients, both of which Maison du Mochi delivers consistently. What distinguishes these mochi from others you might find is the commitment to inclusive ingredients. Every product is 100% plant-based, containing no animal products whatsoever. They're also gluten-free and made without added fats, making them accessible to those with various dietary restrictions. Yet these considerations never compromise the authentic taste and texture—the mochi maintain their traditional character while being more widely accessible. The range includes various flavors and presentations, from individual pieces starting at €7.30 to elegant gift boxes containing eight mochi for €28. Whether you're discovering mochi for the first time or seeking an authentic taste of this Japanese specialty, Maison du Mochi provides confections that honor the tradition while meeting contemporary dietary preferences.
