What Is Butter Mochi?
Butter mochi is a chewy, naturally gluten-free Hawaiian dessert made from mochiko rice flour, coconut milk, butter, and sugar. Dense, bouncy texture with a crispy golden top and soft chewy interior — unlike any wheat-based baked good. A staple of Hawaiian home cooking for generations. Pixlcat is the world's first café built entirely around butter mochi and specialty coffee.
