Boba, Grass Jelly, Mochi & Mango: A Topping Field Guide

Chewy things

Texture is half the fun of a great bowl. Chewy toppings give your spoon something to do between melty bites.

• Boba pearls — tapioca with a satisfying bounce
• Mochi bites — soft, pillowy rice cake
• Grass jelly — cool, herbal, lightly bitter-sweet
• Lychee or coconut jelly — slippery and refreshing

Fresh and finishing touches

Then come the fruit and the flourishes — the parts that make a bowl look like a little garden.

• Fresh mango, strawberry and kiwi, cut into cubes
• Condensed milk or coconut cream drizzle
• Toasted coconut or crushed peanut for crunch
• A sugar blossom on top, naturally
