The persimmon flavor is very strong, very good! Durian daifuku, persimmon daifuku, and osmanthus daifuku are all delicious!
自由自在小飘飘
It's exactly the same as what you eat in Hema in China. The skin is soft and glutinous, the sweetness is just right, and there is a sweet fermented fragrance similar to that of Chinese wine.

Qui Qui
Persimmons are delicious, inexpensive, and of very good quality.
张聪丽
It doesn't feel as bursting with filling as the last time I bought it! There's some persimmon jam around the edges near the mochi skin, and the center is made of chunks of frozen persimmon? I remember before it had a burst of filling in the center, and you could even chew on the persimmon tongue.
bread何脑袋
The daifuku is in frozen packaging; I'm going to thaw it and try it at Hema Fresh.
