Let mochi sit for 15 minutes; then remove the foil. Cut when cool. Dust cutting surface with starch and flip mochi out of pan onto the starch. Use a pizza cutter or sharp knife to cut. Cut off hard edges and dust each piece of mochi with starch as it is cut. (we are cutting ours into 2" x 1-1/2" pieces - should get 36 pieces)

Mochi (type of sweet rice cake) originated in Japan.

I would not recommend you feed rice cakes to a 9 month old child because they do not break down as easily as a cracker and the child could choke on them.

Both Hain and Quaker brand apple cinnamon rice cakes are vegan, as are Lundberg Brown Rice Cakes.

* Japan * Thailand * China * ? That all i can come up with!
