Hi Christina --
Please let us know how it turns out.
Uncle Lani's daughter, Charmaine, told me that this recipe was "similar" to
the recipe they used.
I just did a Google search for Uncle Lani's poi mochi and was pleased to
see they're still around: looks like they're at the Made in Hawaii
Festival in August 2009.

I would like to know where I can come and buy already freshly made poi
mochi.
Preferably in the town area.
