These were a bit too sweet for my taste, but otherwise they were good.

These were good, but I think I would have liked them better if I had used a different type of rice. The texture was a little too soft for my taste.

I wasn't sure how these would turn out, but I was pleasantly surprised. They were crispy and flavorful. I'll definitely be making them again.

So good! The red bean paste filling was sweet and creamy, and the rice cakes were perfectly crispy. I'm definitely going to make these again soon.

These cakes were easy to make and turned out delicious. I used leftover rice, which made it a great way to use up leftovers. Will definitely be making these again.

I've tried many red bean and rice cake recipes before, but this one is definitely the best. The texture was perfect, crispy on the outside and soft and chewy on the inside. Highly recommend!

Fantastic, easy recipe! The addition of the red bean paste made the cakes moist and gave them a slightly sweet flavor that paired perfectly with the savory rice. My family loved them!
