Savor these delicate, sweet candies shaped like an adorable pair of rabbits taking part in mochitsuki (餅つき), a traditional Japanese rice cake pounding ceremony.
In Japanese folklore, it is said that the shape of a rabbit making mochi can be seen on the surface of the moon, a belief that is closely tied to Japan's autumn moon-viewing tradition known as tsukimi. At the base of this confection are colorful konpeito, small sugar candies that were introduced to Japan in the 16th century and remain a beloved part of Japanese confectionery today.
Together, they create a seasonal sweet that reflects both history and cultural symbolism.
