Trader Joe’s, known for its delicious range of mochi ice cream treats, is back this week with a new offering that fans are already obsessed with.
For those unfamiliar, mochi is a Japanese treat made from glutinous rice that’s been pounded and shaped into a soft, chewy dough. It has a stretchy, smooth texture and is often used to wrap fillings like sweet red bean paste or ice cream.

“New and limited at Trader Joe’s: Black Sesame Mochi,” Natasha captioned her post. “If you’re into nutty, slightly savory desserts that still satisfy your sweet tooth, this one’s for you,” she continued. “The creamy ice cream inside is made with roasted black sesame paste, giving it that rich, almost smoky flavor—wrapped in soft, chewy mochi with the same bold twist.”
Available in a 7.61-ounce package containing six mochi pieces, this sweet and savory treat retails for $4.99. The limited-edition Black Sesame mochi is made by infusing an ice cream base of milk, cream and cane sugar with a paste of roasted, finely ground Black Sesame seeds. This paste gives the mochi a rich gray-black color and presents a nutty, slightly savory flavor that contrasts beautifully with the sweet cream.
Each piece is wrapped in a rice-dough shell infused with Black Sesame seeds, creating a bite-sized treat that’s both intriguingly flavorful and instantly classic. Ideal for a sweet snack any time of day, we recommend letting them sit at room temperature for 3–4 minutes after taking them out of the freezer for the best texture and flavor.

“Black sesame is my favorite flavor of tang yuan growing up,” one fan announced. “Matcha and ube are popular flavors now, but black sesame is super underrated and is sooo good. I'll have to give TJ's version a try.”
Another fan, just as excited about the limited release, rated the new TJ’s find a “10/10,” while someone else chimed in to add, “They’re absolutely delicious!!”
If Natasha’s and her fans’ positive reviews aren’t enough to get you excited for this unique treat, we’re not sure what will. “It’s unexpectedly good, kind of fancy, and honestly… feels like a dessert you’d find at a cool little café, not your freezer,” Natasha wrote.
And with that, we’re sold.
