It Is A Curled Up Cat,

but what is it made of?

way back in June 2014 we made a post about water cakes, or shingen mochi as they are known, the two shops that makes them in Japan are still going strong, the Kinseiken Seika Company makes a completely translucent edible cake that looks like a huge water droplet, and here is the link to the cat above, earlier this month Twitter user @mithiruka took a modified recipe for the mizu Shingen mochi and paired it with a silicon cat mold to make this jelly-like cake that’s now being shared by cat lovers across the internet, but you have to be quick to eat it if this follows the original recipe closely, the sweet gelatinous rice cake comprised mostly of mineral water and agar is so delicate it can only stand at room temperature for about 30 minutes before disappearing into a lumpy puddle!
