Mochi Ice


I was browsing through some of my old picture files and I came across a picture of Mochi Ice, which Monique and Deannie are wild about.  We bought this during our trip to Hong Kong (we got the ube flavored one) and we couldn't help but pig out on this yummy treat in our hotel room.  It's actually a frozen dessert made from glutinous rice, with an ube filling.  What caught my eye was that even if the product was made by Kowloon Dairy in Hong Kong the labeling indicates "ube" flavor, which is a Filipino word for purple yam.  I've seen some in Manila, probably one of the supermarkets, but this is rare and hard to come by.  Nice for midnight snack!
