桜餅についての英文説明です。
This traditional Japanese sweet, called Sakura Mochi, is the inspiration behind “Sakura Mochinoko.” 🌸
It’s a delicate rice cake wrapped in a salted cherry blossom leaf.
The gentle aroma of the leaf and the mildly sweet red bean paste create a refined, elegant flavor. 🥰

Yes, it’s very cute in its own simple way! 😊
Actually, the “cherry flavor” comes from the leaf of the Oshima-zakura tree 🌸.
It’s a native Japanese cherry variety known for its strong, distinct fragrance 🍃✨
The pickled leaf contains a natural compound called coumarin,
which gives it an elegant aroma often compared to black tea with gentle vanilla notes. 🌿
The light saltiness of the leaf perfectly balances the sweetness of the mochi,
creating a very refined flavor 😊💕
ok the mochi itself looks cute xD
how much cherry flavor is in it?
Thank you! 😊 I hope you get a chance to try sakura mochi someday! It’s sweet, soft, and has a lovely floral aroma from the cherry leaf. 🌸
you’re so lucky! I would love to try these sweets some day 😊
