Mochi Ice Cream Inventor Passes Away, Leaves a Legacy: Frances Hashimoto, one of L.A.’s historic Little Tokyo’s most influential community members and inventor of mochi ice cream, passed away earlier this week. Hashimoto saw her famous rice cake-ice cream hybrid become mainstream during her time as the president of Mikawaya, her family’s century-old business selling traditional Japanese sweet pastries and snacks.
