Manufactured by Lotte, 雪見だいふく Yukimi Daifuku (literally "snow-viewing daifuku cake") is the most famous brand of mochi ice cream in Japan. It features a chewy gyūhi (mochi) outside layer that retains its soft texture in the freezer and, in its standard flavor, a sweet and mild milk vanilla-flavored ice cream inside. It also comes in numerous other flavors that change from season to season.
