–I think I’m craving for mochi that’s why I brought this aka (red) daifuku last time I was at the Japanese foodshop. Daifuku literally means great luck…but of course I don’t buy this for that. I’m never a believer of luck, whether bad or good.
.
Daifuku is a type of Japanese cake made of glutinous rice flour, it is somewhat the same as mochi only with filling. This daifuku I got has anko (sweet azuki bean paste) filling.
.
Though called “red” – it only refers to the azuki beans, the mochi itself is a lovely pink.

great food! Happy FTF 🙂

We call this Tikoy here in our woods. I think they also call it Tikoy in Cebu. Bought a pack of it from a chinese bake shop near Magellan's cross site.
It's almost like butchi.

I had some Daifuku when I was stationed in Japan during my stint in the Navy. I truly love Japanese food — lots of fresh ingredients of often times good for you to eat.
