Cravings' new Strawberry Mochi Pancake & Waffle Mix puts a playful, fruity twist on its bestselling Buttermilk Mochi Pancake & Waffle Mix. This colorful, springtime recipe made with real strawberries is non-GMO, made with gluten-free ingredients and without artificial flavors, and it only calls for a few fresh ingredient additions—eggs, milk and butter—to create light, fluffy, chewy pancakes or waffles.

Consumers can’t get enough of [mochi and foods with unique textures](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mymochi-cotton-candy) that deliver soft bites that turn familiar favorites especially sensorial.
