Gold Star, a subsidiary of Jelly Beans Group, is launching the new Dubai Mochi Chocolate Cookies across Japan starting in early July 2026. This popular Korean hybrid dessert combines the unique texture of kadayif, a shredded pastry, with pistachios wrapped in a chewy mochi dough, evolving the famed Dubai chocolate treat.
For visitors to Japan, this release offers a chance to enjoy a trending dessert that gained top rankings in Japan’s 2026 first-half trend lists, especially popular among younger generations. Previously limited to select urban eateries, these cookies will now be widely available at supermarkets and convenience stores nationwide in both frozen and room temperature versions.
