This candy is a play on warabimochi. Traditional warabimochi is an old Japanese jello-like treat made from fern starch and dipped in toasted soybean flour. At grocery stores, you can find these packages of candy versions in different flavors such as peach, green tea, and cola. The one I have here is peach. The jiggly parts were a sweet peach flavor, and the dipping powder was peach also, but very tart. The package comes with a little fork so you can pick up the sticky bits and dip them in the powder. Pretty tasty!
