Our Verdict
An affordable, Hawaii-made gluten-free ube mochi pancake mix with a unique ube-and-ulu flour blend. It's a small bag and the online listing is short on detail, but it's a fun, inexpensive way to try mochi pancakes or send a taste of Hawaii as a gift.
What We Liked
- Made in Hawaii with ube flour and ulu (breadfruit) flour, which is an unusual, island-grown combination you won't find in mainland pancake mixes
- Gluten-free, with the chewy, slightly bouncy mochi texture that makes ube pancakes and waffles different from the regular fluffy kind
- At $7.95 a bag, it's one of the more affordable specialty mochi mixes, roughly half the price of small-batch brands
- Easy to prepare and pairs well with tropical toppings like coconut syrup, haupia, or fresh mango
Drawbacks
- The 8 oz bag is small, so it's enough for a weekend breakfast for two rather than a big family batch
- The online listing doesn't spell out the full ingredient list or preparation directions, so check the bag for allergens and for what you need to add
