— July 19, 2024 — Lifestyle
The Birch Benders Ube Mochi Pancake & Waffle Mix is a complete baking mix crafted with a delicious taste, texture and appearance profile in mind to surprise and delight consumers of all ages. The baking mix only requires water to be mixed and is crafted with purple yams in the recipe to give it the distinct purple color profile that's showcased on the front of the packet. The product, upon being prepared, has the satisfying texture of mochi thanks to the rice flour in the recipe for a slightly chewy texture consumers are sure to enjoy.

Chief Operating Officer Dan Anglemyer spoke on the Birch Benders Ube Mochi Pancake & Waffle Mix saying, "We are thrilled to bring our Ube Mochi Pancake & Waffle Mix to breakfast tables across the country. This innovative addition to our product lineup not only offers a delightful burst of color and flavor but also caters to the growing demand for gluten-free breakfast options.”
