Exquisite warabimochi to enjoy in Tokyo! Guide to famous stores recommended in Tokyo

What is warabimochi?

Warabimochi is one of Japan's traditional Japanese sweets and is characterized by its plump texture.

As the name suggests, it was originally made using starch collected from bracken roots, but now it is common to use sweet potatoes, katakuri powder, etc.

It is so soft that it melts in your mouth, and it is common to enjoy sprinkling soybean flour or black honey on it.
