April’s Bakery Young Coconut Lava Mochi Review: 7-Eleven’s Sweetest Surprise

While the Ham & Cheese Toastie gets all the fame, the refrigerated dessert aisle holds some of the best hidden gems in Thailand. Today, I’m reviewing the April’s Bakery Young Coconut Lava Mochi. Priced at 39 Baht, this snack is a hybrid of Japanese texture and authentic Thai tropical flavor. If you are looking for a high-quality dessert to end your 7-Eleven Snack Mission, this green-and-white box should be in your basket.

Texture & The “Lava” Center

This isn’t your average supermarket mochi. Because it’s kept chilled, the experience is much more refreshing.

• The Skin: The mochi dough is ultra-soft and has a great “pull.” It’s topped with toasted sesame seeds which provide a nice nutty contrast to the sweet filling.
• The Filling: Inside is a liquid “lava” made from young coconut cream. It captures that specific Nam Hom coconut aroma—floral, sweet, and creamy.
• The Surprise: You can often find tiny bits of real young coconut meat inside, which adds a premium feel to this convenience store snack.

Why it gets a 4.1/5

I’m giving this a 4.1 out of 5. It is significantly better than the Ezygo Spaghetti Carbonara (which I only gave a 2.5), but it falls just short of a perfect score.

• The Good: The ingredients feel fresh and the flavor is authentic.
• The Catch: It can be a bit too sweet if you eat all four pieces at once. Also, the “lava” center can get messy if the mochi isn’t kept perfectly cold.
