Today I went grocery shopping at one of the nearby Asian/American markets. I was walking past the frozen cases and saw some mochi ice cream (for those of you who don't know what mochi ice cream is, it's a ball of ice cream surrounded by mochi [sweet rice cooked and pounded until it's soft and pliable]). Normally, there are at least 3 or 4 different brands of mochi ice cream in the case. Today there was a new brand. I got all excited because I discovered that it was made in Aiea! And I got even more excited when I saw that one of the flavors in the case was li hing mango!
So I bought a box (8 kinda manini pieces for $6.99) and sampled it. It was onolicious! The company that makes it is Bubbie's (www.bubbiesicecream.com). I found out that they make 16 flavors of mochi ice cream, as well as regular ice cream. They have outlets on Oahu, so if anyone's craving some healthy, onolicious mochi ice cream, go get it fresh from Bubbie's! When I first saw the name "Bubbies" on the box I thought, "hmmm...a Jewish name for grandma...what does THAT have to do with Hawai'i?" Anyway, if you go to their website and read the history of the company, it's all explained there.
