As Onigiri Gekijou explains in a Tweet and an easy to follow making-of video, the rice ball artist uses a combination of seaweed, sesame paste, dried bonito flakes, different types of sesame seeds, and nori seaweed in crafting the feline rice balls. As the video shows, they very carefully knead each ingredient into the ball and even use tweezers to delicately apply each detail.
