The future of dessert is here!
Is it really made of rain? Is it a silicone implant?! There’s been so much buzz surrounding this odd yet enchanting dessert creation that resembles a huge water droplet.
Created by Darren Wong to fit the street style hustle in New York, this jelly-like traditional Japanese water cake which is also known as “Mizu Shingen Mochi” is made up of water and agar, a gelling agent taken from algae. It is usually served with kinako, a roasted soybean powder, and sugar syrup. Since it’s mostly made up of water, you need to consume it immediately because it disappears after 30 minutes!
Only a few stores are selling this exquisite dessert, so we’re giving you the deets on where to get them!
