For best results, use high-quality matcha powder for a vibrant green color and authentic flavor. Make sure the ice cream is very firm before wrapping it in the mochi dough to prevent it from melting too quickly. If the mochi dough is too sticky to handle, dust your hands and the work surface with more cornstarch.
