Where to Find Mochi and Other Sweet Treats for Girls’ Day in Honolulu
Forgot to pre-order? Here’s where you can still find the sticky rice treats for March 3.
Girls’ Day is TOMORROW. You know what that means: You need to polish off the last malassadas and doughnuts from Fat Tuesday and get your mochi game on, because Girls’ Day is unrivaled for mochi gift-giving. And by gift-giving we mean to girls, boys, grandmothers, neighbors, co-workers, significant others and just to ensure an overall abundance, a couple of mochi for ourselves, of course.
Here’s our sister publication HONOLULU Magazine’s guide to mochi in Hawai‘i. And below, for those who may have forgotten to pre-order, you’ll find places where you can still get your mochi and other Girls’ Day sweets on.
