About Sydney Daifuku Store

Sydney Daifuku Store rolls delicate, fruit-stuffed mochi to order in a quiet Lane Cove hideaway. Patrons come for the fresh chew of traditional wagashi—paired with an iced black bean kinako latte or hot matcha. Tucked inside the Seven H collective alongside a tattoo parlour and collectible cards, this leafy retreat lets you watch each confection shaped by hand before slicing it through with string to reveal fresh strawberries and red bean.

  • Handmade to Order: Mochi skins are shaped and stuffed by hand on-site right when ordered.
  • Seasonal & Classic Fillings: Classic red bean and strawberry alongside rotating blueberry, chocolate, and hojicha.
  • Collective Space: Co-located with tattoo and lifestyle studios in a leafy residential street.

  • Peaceful Tree-Lined Residential Hideaway

    Tucked into a quiet, leafy residential pocket of Lane Cove North, the cafe provides a tranquil hideaway away from dense retail strips.

  • Matcha daifuku

    OMG! I had the best daifuku since coming back from Japan. We had the matcha, grape and strawberry. My fussy kid had the matcha and he ate it all.

Before you head over

Practical advice on timing, ordering, and arrival for your visit

  • Arrive Early for Fruit Flavours

    Popular fresh fruit options like strawberry can sell out toward the afternoon, so plan an earlier visit around midday or morning for the fullest selection.

  • Consider Takeaway During Peak Hours

    Fresh daifuku are rolled by hand to order and seating is limited in the quiet suburban complex, making takeaway a seamless choice during busy periods.

  • Allow Time for Street Parking

    Street parking on surrounding residential roads can be tricky to navigate, so allow a few extra minutes to find a spot when driving over.
