Hi Cora, you can omit the ube extract if you don’t have it. The recipe already uses a cup of ube jam.

Can’t find Ube extract. Can I just use the Ube jam?

Thanks, Jeannie. I’ll look it up when in SF.

If you live in San Francisco a store on Clement sales the Mochiko sweet rice flour at Richmond New May Wah Supermarket 707 Clement street, Dan Francisco. It cost under two dollar. Good luck.

Hi, Nicole. I usually use Mochiko Sweet Rice Flour for Hawaiian Mochi Cake. I haven’t used other rice flours yet for this cake. But since you already have it, why not give it a try? Here’s a link from my friends at The Kitchn that might help you – it tells the difference between the different rice flours. https://www.thekitchn.com/whats-the-difference-rice-flou-137190
Let me know how your cake turns out. I’m sure it will be delicious.

I couldn?t find Mochiko at my Asian market and just bought a rice flour.
I?m a bit worried now I was supposed to get a sweet rice flour?

I apologize for the typo error. Recent updates on my blog erased the flour in the ingredients list by mistake. I updated the list — you need one whole box (16 oz) of the Mochiko Rice Flour. Hope that helps.
