At a time when people are itching to travel, My/[Mochi](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/seasonal-mochi-treats) Ice Cream released three new globally inspired [mochi snacks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dubai-chocolate-style-mochi) that promise to transport people to new places via their senses. There's the all-new My/Mochi Coconut, Horchata and Guava, which share the same texture experience as ever with a melty ice cream center protected by a [chewy mochi dough](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cinnamon-bun-mochi) outer layer.

Inspired by the classic horchata, the Horchata My/Mochi Ice Cream variety plays with notes of cinnamon, while the Guava My/Mochi Ice Cream offers a different way to enjoy sweet rice dough and a creamy, cooling snack. The brand's Coconut My/Mochi Ice Cream flavor is described as "straight up paradise in your mouth" and these three flavors promise to provide plenty of refreshment for the summer.
