Mochi donuts, a fusion of Japanese and American culinary traditions, are colorful, whimsical, Instagrammable and surging in popularity in the United States.
They were conceived in Japan by Mister Donut, originally an American company but now almost exclusively an overseas brand. Kerry J. Byrne is a lifestyle reporter with Fox News Digital.
Mochi donuts entered the U.S. via Hawaii. They bubbled for decades as an in-the-know food find on both sides of the Pacific before the recent mochi-donut mania.
