Description The glutinous rice (mochi), which is offered to Buddha and other deities at the New Year, is known as kagamimochi. This delicacy consists of a stack of two large round rice cakes. The round shape symbolizes fulfillment in the family. The stacked cakes indicate successfully "piling up" or adding another year to one's life.
