    バター茶サンド
    Derek L.

    Decided to come by to check them out after their renovations. They have lots of new products, including fruit jellies from sembikiya and butter press sand cookies, along with classic faves like yoku moku and Royce chocolates. I decided to try the matcha butter sand ($22 for a box of 5). I asked for sample and was curtly told, "we dont have samples". They def used to give out a yoku moku cigar or Kobe gaufres cookies as samples to paying customers. Sad to see that with the renovation they have become stingy.

    I have been to their SF location and was surprised to see them here. The displays are incredible and everything looks very delicate and artsy. This is an acquired taste and I am not a crazy fan which was the same reaction I had the last time I had it.

    Fill out the order form for Mochi Cream and Ice Cream Mochi then give it to the attendant for packing. The Mochi Cream is very soft. The thickness of dough is thicker than Ice Cream Mochi but thinner than traditional mochi. Instead of the usual bean fillings, they are filled with choice of 24 flavors and googy cream. Most excellent dessert. Not cheap, close to $2 per piece, but worth every penny and calorie. Caramel Pudding - my favorite Sakura - sandy texture Blueberry Yogurt - also sandy texture Apple Pie - real cinnamon apples and cream Can't wait to try other flavors

    Azuki (red bean)

    The Azuki (red bean) mochi is 10/10. Not too sweet, and everything you'd expect a red bean mochi to be like (it's accompanied by a whipped cream inside). The raspberry mille-feuille, which I ate second, was sooooooo sweet. The cream was way too sweet. The wafer crunch was fun but I couldn't taste/focus on the raspberry jam bc the whipped cream filling was too sweet. Both were $2.15 each and took about 30 min to defrost completely. I actually ate them a little over an hour later and preferred them not icy/cold at all. Mochi was super soft (about half the size of a small palm). Service was super friendly and professional. Would bump up stars if the individual mochi wrapping came in wax paper/paper bags instead of plastic. Too much single-use plastic polluting our environments.

    Wow, I wish I had tried them sooner! J.sweets is located within the mitsuwa market along with other shops & eateries in there. Parking is a hassle if it's one of those busy days which is almost all the time. So I am not a big fan of mochi maybe because I never really had a good one other than the ones that's prepackage, but I kid you not after trying these I am so pleasantly surprised. Since having them I have been wanting more, but unfortunately it's 3 hrs drive from where I'm at. They have so many selection cream/fillings mochi & also ice cream ones. Mochi were so soft like it almost melts in your mouth. The fillings were nice, creamy & not overly sweet. I definitely enjoyed the selections I picked out. The staff was really friendly & professional. This place definitely changed my perspective about mochi & I look forward to trying more flavors esp. the ice cream ones.

    I was just checking out some new places on Yelp and I came across J. Sweets. They had pretty great reviews and the pictures reminded me of a spot back home. Before coming to San Jose, my friends and I went to a place that sells mochi donuts. And I still had a craving for it. J. Sweets sells mochi donuts so I was all about it. J. Sweets is located inside Mitsuwa Marketplace. As soon as you enter Mitsuwa, it's on your right. They have all kinds of Japanese confectionery in that section. Not sure if J. Sweets is the name of the whole section but the place that I got my mochi from was called Mochicream. They had a display case that showed mochi donuts, mochi ice cream, and stuffed mochi. We waited a while trying to decide what to get and noticed no one was coming to help us. Soon we found a paper checklist. You pretty much fill out this paper of what you want and then go to the cash register. Then they will help you get what you want. I guess if you have a question about their products you would have to ask at the register. We decided on getting the mochi donuts flavored peach, green tea, and strawberry. We also got mochi with filling in them. The flavors that we got for that was custard, green tea, blueberry, strawberry. We decided not to get the mochi ice cream because it was quite cold outside. The cream filled mochi was excellent. We loved all of the ones that we got. Just this alone makes me want to try more and come back. The mochi donuts was disappointing. It wasn't fresh because it was wrapped in an individual wrapper and the clerk pulled it out from some drawer. We ordered too much for us to eat in one sitting so I refrigerated one of the mochi donuts. It was the peach mochi donut. I decided to try it the next morning and it was gross. It didn't taste like mochi at all! It almost tasted like rubber. Overall I would go back for the filled mochi but not the donuts. I'll stick to my favorite place for those. Also they could work a little on their customer service.

    Receipt

    The treats are tasty, but.. Purchased 35 worth of goods. When I asked for a bag after I already had been checked out, the lady replied I need to charge you another 10 cents really. So, you want me to go back n my bag and grab my wallet and then get my card out again for 10 ca to & something you should provide after my purchase. So annoyed!!

    The world of mochi is vast! J. Sweets is a corner-counter space inside the Mitsuwa supermarket which specializes in whipped cream-like fillings for their mochi. I enjoy mochi ice cream, but if you're expecting ice cream mochi then don't buy the unwrapped mochi you see taking up the most of the display case. They sell the ice cream ones too, but they are individually wrapped/ pre-packaged. I think they were at the bottom of the case. These were large and just okay. J. Sweets has a good variety of whipped cream filled mochi. They are sold frozen from the display case, but they instruct you to thaw them for 15 minutes before eating. I only tolerate blended bean filling mochi, so these creamy mochi are a good alternative.

    Double mango
    Lily K.

    I've always noticed this place shopping at Mitsuwa and finally decided to give it a try. It's a small shop located to the right of the entrance when you first walk in near the fresh produce area. I was surprised to see so many flavors, ranging from your traditional ones to more adventurous flavors. I decided to get the double mango, sakura and raspberry mille-feuille. I was surprised that these actually come frozen - note that 15 minutes is recommended for thawing them. They were pretty good, but different from the mochi I'm used to as they were also filled with creme in the middle (as opposed to the filling just for that flavor). I thought they were pretty good and worth a try, but I personally prefer the manju I get from the shop in SJ Japan Town - the texture and taste is more fresh for around the same price. However, if you're looking for innovative flavors, this place is a great place to pick some up!

    This place carry Minamoto Kitchoan products and close by my house!! I've been here 3x this month already. Poor husband will be bankrupt soon because of our sweet tooth. $38 for each of those boxes of mochis guys. $18 for the champagne chocolates. I tried the Sakura and red sweet potatoes mochi cream and I don't like them. Probably I would like without the cream filling, it's really overkill.

    Mai X.

    Came here on Monday to try out their mochi cream! Everything was very delicious, creamy and not too sweet and is not as expensive as you would think it is. There was about 10-12 flavors to choose from. Would love to return!

    The pancake desert is good.

A pricey little box, but for this quality, it's to be expected. I sampled Vietnamese coffee and raspberry yuzu. I much preferred the tartness of the raspberry yuzu. The Vietnamese coffee was more on the dense and darker side which I wasn't really feeling. I ended up getting a custom 6-piece box: raspberry yuzu (x2), rose water saffron (x2), and sesame praline (x2). The raspberry yuzu was extra yummy with the chocolate this time. The bitterness and tartness went well together. The sesame praline was interesting. The filling had a more crispy and gritty texture as a result from what appears to be sugar crystals. The sesame was nicely incorporated so that it wasn't overpowering. I really liked it. The rose water saffron was interesting. It definitely had floral and earthy notes. This is among their most popular flavors, but it just wasn't for me unfortunately. It slightly crossed the floral soap threshold for my taste buds. No matter, I know I will be back for the raspberry yuzu and sesame praline someday, and I hope to try other unique flavors they have as well.
