Download The baker’s daughter bringing mochi to the mainstream
We meet the creator of a dessert business whose story starts in her parents’ bakery.
Vivien Wong tells us how she faced a family loss and eventually channelled that experience into building a company making mochi with a twist: taking a traditional Japanese rice cake and wrapping it around balls of ice cream. She shares how she turned a niche treat into a global brand, Little Moons.
