Sorry person who answered this question before, but!.!.!. it's not Dango!. xD Dango don't always have filling and are rice balls on a skewer, covered in a sweet syrupy sauce (and there are different variations of it)!.!.!.

What you're describing is Ohagi!

And a not as pretty picture, but better description of it here: http://japanesefood!.about!.com/cs/dessert!.!.!.
On the contrary, this is what Dango looks like: http://japanesefood!.about!.com/od/japanes!.!.!.
Now I want some Ohagi! lol!. I'll have to settle for Mochi though!.!.!. it's all we have at home right now!. Then again, they are basically the same, just switched inside out xD
Good luck buying your Ohagi! ^___^ So yummy~~Www@FoodAQ@Com
