Filipinos’ most-awaited holiday is here!

This Christmas season is even more special for families following months of not physically seeing each other.  Filipinos are eager to gather around their tables and spend this joyous occasion with their loved ones. What better way to end Christmas eve dinner and all other holiday feasts and festivities than with the Aice Mochi ice cream, the chewiest and yummiest must-have Christmas dessert in the country.  

Aice, a Singaporean ice cream brand, introduces its Mochi ice cream in the Philippines – a perfect addition to every family’s “Mochi-Buena” celebration this 2021. Mochi is a dessert made from glutinous rice, is used as a special skin to wrap Aice’s ball of ice cream and other special fillings. The round shaped treat is available in a variety of flavors like Vanilla, Chocolate, Strawberry and Durian. 

Aice has perfected its mochi, using only the finest ingredients and by pounding it thousands of times to make the chewiest mochi skin, ensuring that consumers will only enjoy the chewiest mochi ice cream dessert. 

“At Aice, we prioritize quality when developing the best line up of ice cream for Filipinos. Through innovation and our advanced cold chain networking, we ensure the best quality throughout our whole production process until our ice cream products are safely handed to consumers,” said Jason Liu, General Manager, Brand Management Center, Aice Group.

“In addition, we always strive to innovate. As Filipinos honor the Christmas tradition of sharing a meal on December 24th and throughout the Yuletide Season, our Mochi ice cream is worthy of being the new centerpiece for a truly memorable and special ‘Mochi-Buena’ celebration,” he added. 

Filipino families can also find creative ways to enjoy their favorite flavors of the Aice Mochi ice cream. Aice mochi can be used as filling in between cookies, wafers and biscuits for a Mochi Ice Cream Sandwich and may even be wrapped in between 2 slices of bread, battered and fried for a unique fried Mochi ice cream – just the two of the yummy Christmas Mochi Dessert ideas to try at home while on your Christmas vacation.
