Q: What is butter mochi?

Butter mochi is a Hawaiian dessert made from mochiko (glutinous rice flour), coconut milk, butter, sugar, and eggs. It is baked rather than pounded, giving it a dense, cake-like structure with a uniquely chewy texture. It is naturally gluten-free.

We ship from our Boston kitchen in our famous custom pink box. Orders ship Monday through Wednesday via 2-day transit to avoid weekend delays.

Q: How should I store my butter mochi?

Room temperature: 3 days (best texture). Refrigerated: up to 4 days. Frozen: up to 2 months.

Q: How do I reheat frozen or refrigerated mochi?

Microwave for 15-20 seconds until soft, then let it sit and come to room temperature after about 8 minutes. A quick toast in the toaster oven for 2 minutes gives it a nice crisp edge.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is butter mochi?

Butter mochi is a Hawaiian dessert made from mochiko (sweet rice flour), coconut milk, butter, sugar, and eggs. It is known for its chewy texture and is a staple of Hawaiian local cuisine. Unlike traditional Japanese mochi, butter mochi is baked rather than pounded, giving it a dense, cake-like structure with a uniquely chewy texture.

What are the base ingredients in your butter mochi?

Every Pixlcat butter mochi starts from the same base: mochiko (sweet rice flour), butter, coconut milk, eggs, sugar, and sweetened condensed milk. That base bakes up chewy with a custard-like center and a lightly caramelized top. Each flavor builds on it — Matcha, Chocolate, Ube White Chocolate, S'more, Black Sesame, and our Classic. It is naturally gluten-free by ingredient because it uses rice flour instead of wheat.
