Cherry Blossom Mochi with Petals

When I tried making some Kanto-style sakura mochi I ran out of cherry blossom leaves! Suddenly I had a brainwave and I made these very pretty sakura mochi instead. They look good for Girl's Day as well.
The cherry blossom petals will be quite salty so make sure to rinse the salt off well. Think carefully about where to place the cherry blossom petal in the batter (the centre is not a good place). You should place them somewhere where they will appear near the edge of the roll. Recipe by Smuchi
