Marquis Matsudaira Mochiaki (松平 茂昭, September 17, 1836 – July 25, 1890) was a Japanese daimyo of the late Edo period. He first ruled the Itoigawa Domain, before being adopted by Matsudaira Yoshinaga as his successor for the position of ruler of the Fukui Domain. Because domainal politics was largely run by the domain's karō and other retainers, Mochiaki was largely a figurehead.

Mochiaki was made a member of the kazoku as a count, and promoted to marquis in 1888.
