Starting July 2, 2026, the Sapporo Tokyu store will offer a special summer-only treat: Soft Mochi Zunda. This seasonal sweet features a soft and chewy mochi filled with flavorful zunda, a sweet edamame paste, made fresh in the store’s kitchen.
Visitors to Sapporo will appreciate this exclusive delicacy that highlights Hokkaido’s rich local ingredients. The soft mochi is crafted from freshly steamed Hokkaido glutinous rice mixed with meringue, creating a unique melt-in-your-mouth texture. The zunda paste uses locally grown edamame with a subtle sweetness that enhances the natural aroma of the beans. This limited-time offering is perfect for those seeking authentic Japanese sweets with a seasonal twist during summer in Hokkaido.
About Soft Mochi Zunda at Sapporo Tokyu
Soft Mochi Zunda is a limited edition product available only at the Sapporo Tokyu store. It debuted in November 2024 as part of the popular Soft Mochi series, known for its tender and chewy texture. The new zunda flavor combines the soft mochi with a specially prepared zunda paste made from Hokkaido edamame, preserving a slight texture and balanced sweetness to highlight the beans’ natural flavor. Each piece is made fresh daily in the store’s workshop to ensure optimal freshness and taste.
