Raindrop Cake

Introducing the new food craze in Smorgasburg this summer...Raindrop Cake!
Most people would asked "are they good" or "what is it?"

 






                    It is a Japanese dessert inspired by  Mizu Shingen Mochi. The water cake itself has no taste because it is made out of water so that's why it accompanied with some brown sugar syrup and roasted soybean powder on the side. I have tried the cake over the weekend and personally I don't think it's really worth the money. It cost about $8 and paying for a piece of water jello made out of poland spring water is pretty steep. One thing to keep in mind: when you're eating the raindrop cake with syrup and roasted soybean powder make sure you don't breathe while you're eating it. The soybean powder is not very fine powder so you could get a bit choked if you don't swallow it thoroughly. Therefore, I wouldn't recommend for babies or kids but you can definitely feed them the raindrop cake without the soybean powder.
This new dessert creation is certainly interesting. By judging the way it looks, it could really attract people to come see it and questioning what is it?
I would give them credits for the most unique looking dessert but the taste part doesn't really intrigued me.  But one of the good things about this dessert is that there is no calories if you only consume the raindrop cake itself.
