Gearing up for the winter holidays, My/Mochi has brought back its Cool Peppermint mochi ice cream, as well as added a Cookie Dough option to the seasonal lineup. This follows an earlier fall limited launch of Pumpkin Spice and Apple Pie a lá Mode.
Cool Peppermint’s creamy peppermint ice cream with minty bits wrapped in sweet, pillowy mochi rice dough is almost like having a soft, chewy, icy cool candy cane, while new Cookie Dough wraps cookie flavored ice cream, chocolatey chips and chunks of real cookie dough in the brand’s signature mochi. The latter is is the first variety to feature bakery mix in ingredients.
“Holidays are all about fun and family, but let’s face it, sometimes we need a little snack to keep us joyfully chill,” said Brigette Wolf, chief marketing officer of Los Angeles, California-headquartered My/Mochi. “Our Cool Peppermint and Cookie Dough mochi ice creams are the perfect way to get a taste of these iconic holiday flavors – with only 90 calories.”
Both treats are now available at select retailer stores nationwide for an average price of $5.99 for a six-count box.
Founded in the 1990’s by a Japanese baker and American entrepreneur who set up a small shop in LA’s Little Tokyo neighborhood. Since then, the My/Cochi brand has evolved and grown to be the world’s largest producer of mochi ice cream. It is available in more than twenty flavors – including Cookies & Cream, Strawberry, Double Chocolate, Mango and S’Mores, as well as dairy-free options and Smoothies.
