There’s no shortage of super chewy pastel-frosted mochi donuts in Las Vegas. This amazing hybrid between cake donuts and mochi offers a chewy and airy interior and a slight crunch on the outside.
The donuts come in a pon de ring shape, which makes it easy to pop off balls of dough covered in sweet frosting. Delightfully uniform, chewy, and sweet, these donuts are as tasty as they are photogenic.
