Kashiwa-mochi

This is a rice cake wrapped in kashiwa (Japanese oak: Quercus dentata) leaf and is called "kashiwa-mochi". Kashiwa-mochi are eaten on Japanese Children's Day which is the 5th of May, just like "chimaki" of the previous post. Since I sketched chimaki last year, then I bought kashiwa-mochi to sketch this year. Sketched yesterday, the 5th of May, 2010.
