Melojoy Toasty Mochi
The Melojoy Toasty Mochi [Z067-2] features a fresh design that looks just like a mochi that’s been toasted to a golden brown.This squeeze toy features a Japanese-inspired design modeled after grilled mochi, along with its unique “Panpan Pancake (Thick Cream)” texture. It’s available for ¥2,499 at the official store.
What kind of product is the Toasty Mochi?
“Toasty Mochi” is a Japanese-style treat-themed squeeze toy featuring white mochi topped with caramel-colored grill marks and accented with red beans (azuki). It’s part of MELLOJOY’s Japanese cuisine series developed for the Japanese market, and its highlight is the realistic reproduction of the grilled mochi’s charred appearance.
The texture is “Panpan Pancake / Thick Cream.” Made from a unique material not found in other series, it features a fluffy, thick pancake-like body while offering a dense, substantial feel that sinks deeply when pressed. It’s a new texture—heavier than “Creamy Cream” and more springy than “Mousse Cream.”
The price is ¥2,499 (tax included). It’s in the same price range as the “Luxury Soufflé” and “Double Bread.”
Design Highlights: An Exquisite Recreation of the World of Japanese Tradition
The base is made of pure white mochi dough, featuring a golden-brown caramelized pattern (a caramel-orange gradient) that spreads toward the center, topped with three red beans. Its appearance, reminiscent of a daifuku grilled over charcoal, is a detail that Japanese confectionery lovers will find irresistible.
Arrange two of them side by side with a cup of tea, and it looks just like a display case at a real Japanese confectionery shop. Its charming aesthetic makes it a picturesque addition to any interior decor.
Texture Review: A New Experience with “Thick Cream”
It stretches surprisingly far when pulled. True to its name, “Thick Cream,” the fabric feels thick and taut as you stretch it, and it has a chewy, slow rebound when it snaps back.
When squeezed with one hand, the baked part deforms and the orange pattern spreads out, feeling just like you’re squishing mochi. But when you let go, it slowly returns to its original, neat rectangular shape.
When you stretch it sideways with both hands, it stretches out with a “boing” sound, just like mochi. It’s fun to watch as the red bean accents get stretched along with it.
