MINI MOCHI is a playful, delectable, variable display font with a little bit of *stretch* and a little bit of *flavor.* Each letter is like a mochi-shaped cube engraved with pudgy counterforms that squish and mutate in response to three variable axes (“stretch” and “flavor,” plus “slice” which turns all curves into straight lines). While originally inspired by the anonymous tofu-shaped glyphs that appear when a font is missing a character, Mini Mochi evolved into something of its own. (On a side note, the flavorful glyphs also look kind of like rotten teeth. Don‘t eat too much sugar or you might end up like these letters!)
