Today was my third visit to J Sweets. It was as good as ever! The amazing kind service and the incredibly delicious desserts are worth a trip to Mitsuwa in Irvine! We seem to be stuck on the Royce chocolate. If you are a chocolate fan, J Sweets is a must visit! The location is tucked in the small food court inside Mitsuwa. Be sure to grab a matcha Cream Roll!!! So so good!!! read more

J. Sweets is located inside the Mitsuwa Marketplace in Costa Mesa. I've purchased many items for gifting but my top 3 favorites to gift are the Royce chocolates, the Yoku Moku "cigar" cookies, and the Hokkaido Shiroi Koibito. The latter is one of my favorites as it reminds me of my very first trip to Japan where I first tasted these delicate cookies. The service is always very pleasant and the workers are very helpful with recommendations when you ask them. For a small shop, they offer quality products for gifting that will sure to please those new or familiar with the product. It always leaves the recipient with a smile! read more

overall score: C+ order: green tea mochi sakura mochi the mochi itself was really good but i was not a fan of the cream at all. i enjoyed the green tea one more as the cream did not bother me as much. the sakura cream was a little hard to eat service: very fast, mochi is already made so they just package it ambiance: inside mitsuwa to the right read more

I've tried a few things from other J.sweets. However this is the first time I tried a mochi cream, specifically from this location. This place has a lot of different sweets. They have them all set out so you know how they look. So I'd say organized, and you're aware of what you'll be getting with whatever treat you get. The sweets look so beautifully presented, and from my experiences from other location, the quality has never disappointed. I went to get mochi creams twice at this location. The first time I tried the strawberry shortcake, double mango, green tea and black sesame. My top favorite flavors are strawberry shortcake and double mango. Strawberry shortcake had a whip cream blended with cake pieces, and between that a strawberry puree inside a pink mochi. It was light, and full of flavor. it tasted like I as eating a strawberry shortcake. The double mango didn't used an artifical flavored mango. The cream was mango flavored, with a mango puree inside the cream. I didn't like the green tea and black sesame. Both had mung been inside. Green tea was covered in matcha powder and had green tea flavored mung bean and cream. I'm not a fan of mung bean. The black sesame was the same, it had a black sesame mung bean flavor with cream. I wouldn't get these. I didn't pay attention to the service the first time, but I did the second time. The ladies working are very sweet and attentive. They smiled the whole time, and I appreciate a smile when it comes to customer service. I got the banana chocolate and peach yogurt. Both also had mung bean, but the chocolate flavored made the mung bean in he mochi bearable. I believe the mung bean was banana flavor, and the cream was chocolate cream. There were also chocolate chips. Then the mochi was rolled in cocoa. The peach tasted like medicine. The peach flavoring was not good. Overall I'd say get the strawberry and mango which apparently, were both top sellers there. The banana chocolate is descent as well. So I'd go back for these three for sure! read more

3/11/2023 Been here a few times, but only bought the mochi here. I bought all the flavors - minus one - so thought I'd post a new review. FLAVORS Raspberry Millefeuille, Strawberry Shortcake, Double Mango, Sakura, Peachy Yogurt, Caramel Pudding, Chocolate, Green Tea, Choco Banana, Black Sesame, Café au Lait Favorites: Strawberry Shortcake - Bursting with strawberry and cream flavor! Double Mango - Mango and cream. Very fruity! Peachy Yogurt - Tastes like peach yogurt, but with more peach flavor. Café au Lait - This is a monthly flavor. Tastes like cappuccino in mochi form! Delish! Don't miss out on this flavor! Honorable Mention: Raspberry Millefeuille - I would recommed for first timers because it is unique, as it has this crunchy and sweet filling that resembles puff pastry in millefeuilles. The millefeuille and raspberry jam together kind of reminds me of peanut butter and jam, although it does not have peanut butter in it. Not Good: Sakura - Sakura disappointingly had no flavor of cherry blossom. Choco Banana - It had both flavors of both chocolate and banana, it also had mini chocolate bits inside as well, but did not like it. Caramel Pudding - Tasted like vanilla pudding, but with little caramel flavor. The filling was like a thick pudding-like texture. STORAGE If you are not eating right away, please store in the freezer. When ready to eat, please defrost at room temperature for 3-5 minutes before consumption. The mochi should be soft when pressed down and the fillings should have melted to a soft cream texture. CUSTOMER SERVICE Good service and everything was packed quickly. You can pay with card or cash. LOCATION Inside Mitsuwa Market. As soon as you walk in, it will be to your right. read more

One of my good friend introduced Mochi Creams to me awhile back and I cannot lie, they are a bit addicting! Don't say I didn't warn you. If you like Mochi Ice Cream, you'll like these as well. I prefer these over the ice cream since they are so pillowy & decadent. Lightly sweetened and just so good. If you are a fan of Royce' Chocolates, you will love that they have a case full of them. These chocolates are like BUTTER, just melts in your mouth and not too sweet. If you haven't tried any of these treats, please do yourself a favor and get some during the holidays...you'll thank me later. Needed to grab a few gift sets for a dinner party. These make the best gifts to share. Everyone always goes crazy for them when we bring them. There are always a ton of flavors to choose, but my fave flavors are below: Strawberry Shortcake - $2.60 Chocolate Red Bean Peach Yoghurt Black Sesame - Personal FAVE Green Tea - Personal FAVE NOTE: Prices are per each flavor. Gift Sets available: Box of 6 $18.20 / Box of 12 $33.40 (for every 12 pcs Gift Box, you get 1 free Mochi Cream - Green Tea Flavor). LOCATION - Inside the Mitsuwa Marketplace just on the right side when you enter the marketplace (on the corner) before you make your way to the food court. CUSTOMER SERVICE - The ladies there are always friendly and so helpful. DESSERT SELECTION - Lots to choose from at this location. They carry assorted Japanese Chocolates (different price point) and Cookies/Crackers and tons of Gift Sets. Mochi Creams are always available but some flavors might sell out. PRICE - On the pricey side but these are really good and worth every penny IMO. These definitely make for a nice gift to any dinner party or occasions. VERDICT - Though they are on the pricey side, they are well worth it. You will love them too and be just as addicted as I am. I have warned you all...this is like entering a Black Hole, there's no turning back. read more

I was at Mitsuwa Marketplace in Costa Mesa a couple weeks ago. Whenever I'm at any Mitsuwa, my go-to are Santouka Ramen and J.sweets if they exist because not all Mitsuwa have them (San Gabriel location doesn't have the restaurants and shops which is a bummer because I live closest to SG). I've been to Mitsuwa in Torrance so I thought I try their other locations. Anyway, this review is on J.sweets so let's get back to it... I've at least tried 19 of their mochi flavors... my 4 favorite mochis are below. They are my go-to. There are a few honorable ones, but I won't mention them here. =) 1. Raspberry Mille-Feuille (my #1 fav!... just delightful and yummy!) 2. Apple Pie (my #2 fav!... it must be the crunch!) 3. Double Mango (my #3 fav!... a lovely mango... very tasty!) 4. Sakura (my #4 fav!... a nice cherry flavor!) Each mochi is about $2.20 - $2.30. I usually buy 8 of each every time... so do the math LOL. I'm walking out with about $70+ of mochi LOL. By the way, they do come frozen so make sure you place them in the freezer after you get home. You may leave a few out to defrost for dessert. =) Staff was very friendly and service was excellent. Mitsuwa parking was a little tight, but it could be better. Give J.sweets a try at any of their locations either Costa Mesa (medium size store), Irvine (very small store and they don't carry my #1 fav... bummer!), or Torrance (biggest store compared to the other two). Happy Mochi'ing! read more

Lots of Japanese chocolate and cookies gift sets. A bit pricey but taste so yummy. We buy a bunch whenever we stop by mitsuwa market. The people working there are very helpful and offer to gift wrap your items. read more

Inside the Mitsuwa Market area before you get to the food court. Can't miss the colorful display of desserts if you go straight through the front door. They have a good selection of Mochi Cream from Japan which has more variety than any other mochi ice cream spot and the flavors of both the mochi and the ice cream are excellent compliments to each other. read more

Well, all I can say is to look at your receipt. The lady accidentally charged me double the price of 2 items. So overcharged by $20.

Amazingly delicious mochi w creative flavors! Strawberry shortcake: delicious typical strawberry shortcake flavor. I thought it was good, but nothing that made a huge impression. Sweet potato: very potato-y. It has the typical sweet potato taste that I'm used to. Red sweet potato: a very light flavor that tastes exacrly like cafe bora's purple potato soft serve. Very good! Sakura: amazinggggggggg! Tastes exactly like sakuramochi! Raspberry mille feuille: very rich mochi bc of the white chocolate layer. Has a crunch due to thin wafers. I really liked it! read more

I come here mainly 2 for things. The ice cream mochi that is shipped in from Japan (Mochi Cream) and the chocolate from Royce (it's almost 1/2 off what they sell on Amazon). Royce chocolate is my favrate brand of chocolate from Japan. Their nana (which is almost like ganache/fudge) is amazing. Highly recommended as a gift to your SO/wife/girlfriend. read more

My daughters new favorite! Great prices too! So yummo! Just point the finger and go for it!

Their mochi cream is imported from Japan. My favorites are green tea, double mango, and caramel pudding. There used to be a bigger variety of flavors. Customer service is great and friendly. The lady nicely packaged my mochi cream desserts into a clear bag. read more

The Cream puff is awesome, but they don't have a huge selection of sweets. I wanted to find some of those cake rolls, but they didn't have any there. They did have huge palmieres and that was pretty good too. I wish they had more. read more

It was my first time to go and it was so fun to see all the different choices they gave you, since it was my first time trying mochi I got all flavors! They were all so good my favorite is Sakura and the Chocolate one ! The rest were amazing as well but those were my favs! read more

My favorite green tea spot! One drink is never enough, it's so refreshing! Keep your cup and your receipt because a refill is only $1.07! Their mochi however I'd say pass on. My girlfriend bought one from here and wasn't a fan. This place is located inside the mall where Mitsua super market is and there's plenty of parking although it does fill up on summer days. Lots of food to enjoy since there's also a food court surrounding. read more

My go-to place when I need a nice gift and don't know what to buy. All the cookies and pastries are delicious, imported from Japan, though I never get them for myself because of the price. So they're really a special treat and most importantly have beautiful packaging to make your gift look nice (and as expensive as it actually is). read more

UPDATE: The replacement chiffon cake was moist and fluffy like it should have been. Exactly what I was expecting from Fugetsudo. Still amazed by the customer service and the way they treated me. ______ UPDATE: Customer service was phenomenal! No questions asked and extremely apologetic. What I would expect from a Japanese company! This qualify of the original chiffon could have been a fluke but I will update again once I get back to try the replacement one they gave me. -------- We just opened and cut into a Fugetsudo Chocolate Chiffon Cake that we bought this afternoon and was extremely disappointed. Coming from such a well known confectionary company such as Fugestudo, we were expecting a moist, light and fluffy chiffon cake but instead we got a dried out, crumbly mess. I will update my review when I get ahold of someone tomorrow but for the time being, I would recommend you stay far away from the Chiffon Cakes here. read more

I was about to depart SoCal area for good a few months ago, and I was in dire need of a decent sweets shop that offers tasty, healthy, and presentable gift options for friends and business acquaintances. J. Sweets saved the day with delicate roll cakes. I was so glad to keep it on the back of my mind when I visited Mitsuwa before. I know Yelpers can be critical when it comes to businesses with few reviews, but you can't blame the shop for having little visitors. First and foremost: the sweets here cost considerably more than most Asian bakeries/sweets in the area. The roll cake I've chosen costed $22 (yes, expensive). However: I know this particular location has lots of corporate housing for Japanese expatriates nearby, so they have a demand for high-quality Japanese sweets for corporate functions. This is perhaps why the shop can still operate with higher price tags and little foot traffic. As for how the cake tasted- My acquaintances called a few weeks later and BEGGED for the address of the shop. If you are looking for corporate partners to please their taste buds, look no further. read more
