kimura fruit

The other night Satoshi brought home dessert from Kimura Fruit, a large fruit distributor in Osaka which has been in business since 1910.

Their desserts are always topped with the freshest most colorful fruits.

On this day, he brought home 2 fruit daifuku.

These were soft and delicious. Since both were a little different, Satoshi said we should cut them in half and share.

They were so soft that they were kind of squished after I cut them.

This one had yellow cake, whipped cream, strawberries and was covered with the thin mochi (rice cake) that daifuku usually has.

This one had yellow & chocolate cake, whipped cream, strawberries, other fruits and was covered with a thin mochi.

Both were delicious. (Thanks Satoshi!)

    Mmmm...That looks good. I wonder how they fill all those ingredients into the thin mochi outer layer.

    Dang that's looking good right now ... my wife brought home some cute cakes the other day but they turned to be tasteless. :( I think I won't show her those pictures, just to be on the safe side!
