FAQs

Mochi (pronouced mo-chee) is a Japanese-inspired rice dough -- this is the outter layer of our mochi ice cream. Our mochi is crafted by our chefs and made with the highest quality of mochiko flour. The flour is first steamed and then carefully kneaded until it becomes delightfully chewy and soft. Once it meets our standards for quality and taste, the dough is then wrapped around our creamy ice cream for an enchanting combination of flavor and texture.

Mochidoki is a word we invented to describe our delicious mochi ice cream ... loosely translated, our name means "Mochi-time!"

We currently offer 13 flavors in addition to seasonal flavors. For a complete list, click here

Each piece of mochi is approximately 2" in diameter, 1" high and 1.25 ounces, or 34 to 35 grams. Each piece can be eaten in two or three bites.

You can purchase a single flavor of mochi with 4 or 24 pieces per box.

Our customer service team will promptly review your order for a replacement on the next available shipping date.

We ship to all of the contiguous United States and the District of Columbia. We do not ship retail internationally or to Alaska and Hawaii at this time. We are unable to ship to P.O. Boxes, DPOs, APOs and FPOs.

Our mochi ice cream is packaged with a large quantity of dry ice to keep our product perfectly frozen through the evening of your expected delivery date. We do not show pricing in our packing slips. Handle with care - dry ice.

Our order processing time for orders is between 3-5 business days. After shipping, frozen mochi is typically in transit for 24-72 hours, depending on the type of shipping selected, delivery location and pending circumstances outside of our control due to FedEx holiday schedule changes and delays. Expedited shipping will reduce transit times, but not speed up processing time. We recommend ordering a few weeks out for time sensitive orders.

For individual flavors, our mochi comes in 4 piece boxes.

We offer flat-rate and free shipping based on location -

$10 for Zone 1 states, with Free Shipping over $100 (AL, AR, AZ, CA, CT, DC, DE, GA, IL, IN, KY, MA, MD, ME, MI, MO, MS, NC, NH, NJ, NV, NY, OH, WA, PA, RI, SC, VT, WV)

We ship our mochi from our state-of-the-art facility in New Jersey to strategically placed distribution centers across the country. Once you place your order, we'll select the nearest distribution center to you, so your mochi can be delivered as quickly as possible.

If you would like your mochi to arrive on a certain date, you can use our delivery date selector at checkout.

Once you've placed your order, you will receive a confirmation email. When your order is ready to ship, you'll receive a second email with your tracking number (if you do not receive your confirmation email, please contact info@mochidoki.com).

Once your order has been processed, we cannot modify the delivery address, as the carrier requires one business day to process the change, which in turn, delays the package. Due to the perishable nature of our products, we are not responsible if the package then arrives melted due to an address change.
