Sakura Mochi ?

Hi folks.. that time of the year again. I *think* I have the terminology right. I'm talking about the sakura flavored "jelly" (for lack of better term - maybe soft, pliable rice cake), wrapped in a fresh (important) sakura leaf.

A quick Google search seems to confirm: 桜餅

I've found them all over Ginza while walking around the main shopping corridor. What I was looking for was a venue in Roppongi (prefer near the Hills) which carries them fresh at this time of year. Does anyone know of a source?

Thanks..
