Chocolate-Covered Mochi Gummies

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

Issei Mochi Gummies Debuts Its New Product Just in Time for V-Day

— January 20, 2025 — Lifestyle
Issei Mochi Gummies — also known as "the world's first mochi gummy brand" — has re-launched its first-ever Chocolate-Covered Mochi Gummies for Valentine's Day. These delectable bites are covered in artisanal dark chocolate and feature the brand's popular strawberry Mochi Gummy. The interest in this product last year was notable as the units sold out within hours.

Issei Mochi Gummies stand out for their flavor balance and unique texture. The gummies boast a soft and pillowy texture that is described somewhere in "between a gummy bear and a marshmallow." The brand's product is also gelatin-free, kosher, and made without artificial colors or flavors.

The appeal behind Issei Mochi's Chocolate-Covered Mochi Gummies is evident in the numerous accolades the product has received — from the Most Innovative New Product Award at the Sweets and Snacks Expo to the 2024 Nourish Award.
