Tokyo Treat Box Review! ~ August 2020!

Hello my sweet lilac flowers! ~

I'm back on my blog today with another Tokyo Treat Box review, this time it's the most recent one; August! ^^;

They changed their shipping method this time and the box came so fast! I think it took like 3 or 4 business days to get to me which is awesome! :3

This month the theme of the box was Natsu Yasumi which means Summer Vacations! ^^; I was so excited to discover these summer snacks! ~

Here was everything from the box this month! :3

So as usual I'll review them items one by one as I was trying them with the Prince! ^^;

~ Cocoa Bolo Bites ~

It kinda taste like Nesquick cereal but much less sweet and a little bit more fancy? It's very crunchy and the taste of cocoa is very present but it doesn't taste cheap at all!

~ Bubbly Taiyaki: Watermelon Chocolate ~

The watermelon chocolate was very good! The wafer is light and airy, it paired very well with the bubbly chocolate! ^^; A very interesting snack!

~ Ramune Hi-Chew ~

I really love Hi-Chew, it's one of my favourite Japanese candy! ^^; This one had some little bits of Ramune inside of it that would melt as you chew! Both of the flavours were really delicious and the texture was really interesting! :3

~ Setouchi Sea Salt and Lemon Rice Crackers ~

The texture was very interesting and crunchy! The taste of lemon was very faint and a little bit sweet. They tasted very fancy! ^^ The flavour was subtle but really complex and nice! :3 It tasted even better as we ate more, I can't get enough of it! OwO

~ Yaokin Crunchy Brown Sugar Snack ~

I remember having that snack before in another box! ^^; It was light and airy! The brown sugar coating tasted like molasses or very dark brown sugar, much more flavourful than the brown sugar here! The sugar coating was thicker than what I remembered but it was tasty! ~

~ KitKat Salt Lychee ~

The white chocolate was creamy and rich, so good! Lychee is one of my favourite flavours so I was very excited to try these! ~ The lychee taste was out of this world, very complex with the touch of salt in it too! It's not too sweet but it's very flavourful! :3 It may become my favourite KitKat! ^^

~ Spicy Fried Edamame ~

The texture was crunchy and nice, kind of like a peanut? The taste was very nutty and good though! ^^ It was spicy but not too much (and that comes from someone who cannot handle spicy food! XD). I feel like this would be good with a fruity beer! ^^

~ Pure Gummy Pikachu ~

The packaging is so cute omg! ;3; The taste was very summery and refreshing! ^^ It tasted like pineapple and banana mostly, it was a bit sour at first too because of the coating on the gummy... ^^'' The gummy was a little bit softer than what I thought but it was good anyway! ~

~ General Shrimp ~

The taste and smell of shrimp was... Very present... XD; It didn't taste very good because the taste of seafood was too overwhelming... It also smelled kind of bad and weird... XD; I don't recommend this snack lol...

~ Sour Lemon Gum ~

It was so sour!! XD; The gum wasn't very chewy, it was more soft than the gum I am used to... After a couple of minutes the sour taste would faint. ~

~ Soccer Scratch Mints ~

There was just a single mint inside this packaging... It was funny because there was kind of a scratching card inside of the packaging? XD; The mint didn't taste like mint at all? It had a faint taste of sugar but no particular flavour? It wasn't really good and a little boring... ^^''

~ Umaibo Rings Sugar Rusk ~

It smelled and tasted like... Buttered french toast? It smelled so good and buttery! The texture was light, crunchy and amazing! The flavour was really unique, something I never tasted before but it was really an amazing taste! ^w^ Now I crave for more... ;w;''

~ Yakisoba Snack ~

We had this kind of snack in a box before! ^^ It tasted salty but not too much. It also tasted a bit like BBQ sauce? I feel like it's Tonkatsu sauce though... A nice crunchy and light snack!

~ Oranda Rice Cracker ~

The texture was nice, light but crunchy! ~ The flavour of grilled rice was very good! It was a bit salty too. Very yummy! ^^

~ Coca-Cola Vanilla Orange ~

The flavour combo was really nice and interesting! ^^ The orange and vanilla mixed well together and the cola isn't too sweet either! ~

~ Umaibo Tonkatsu Sauce Flavour ~

I already had that type of Umaibo several times before! ^^ The flavour is a bit spicy and tangy, I really like it! And the texture was really nice too, yum!

~ Caramel Corn Snack ~

This one kind of tasted like the Umaibo Sugar Rusk? The flavour was really similar! The sweet and salty taste was so good though!! I wish I could have another bag... ;w;

This time, the Prince and I decided to do a Top 5 instead of a Top 3 because... There was too many things we liked... XD;

Tokyo Treat Box Review! ~ May 2020!

Hello my cute and cuddly kittens! ^^;

Last week after waiting for almost 3 months I received my may Tokyo Treat box! XD; I was debating either I wanted to do a review of it or not since it was so late but I really enjoy doing these so here you go! :3

Here was everything that was in the box! ^^; The theme was non-stop sakura party!

As usual I'm going to review each of the items one by one as I was trying them! ~

~ Chicken Ramen Snacks ~

It's quite crunchy and very salty. You can definitely taste the chicken flavour and it's a very natural taste! I often eat dry ramen like that with added powder to it but for this one the "powder" is already stuck to the dried noodles so it's more evenly distributed.

~ Mike Popcorn Soy Sauce & Butter Flavour ~

The taste of soy sauce with the popcorn is really special and unique! You can also taste the faint taste of butter and it doesn't taste as "cheap" as the popcorn from here! It was really good!

~ Frozen Coca Cola Lemon ~

I feel like this coke is less sweet than the coke we have in Canada. I really liked the faint lemon flavour to it! Sadly I feel like it didn't quite froze like it was supposed to but it was good anyway! XD;

~ Sakura Matcha Collon ~

The sakura cream inside was really really good! It really tasted like sakura flowers, so fancy! ^^; It's really soft and creamy and the filling paired well with the crunchyness of the waffle. I am not usually a fan of matcha but the matcha waffle isn't overpowering. It's not overly sweet either. Very good snack! ^^

~ Hello Kitty Sakura Candy ~

Firstly, the packaging is SO CUTE! I only tasted the apple flavour so far and it's quite good, not too sweet and it taste like apple juice pretty much! XD; The Prince had the Orange one and it tasted like marmalade to him! I also liked the little fortune on the candies, that was cool! XD;

*Since then I had the other flavours and I would say that my favourite is the cherry one! ^^ It tasted really like actual cherries, yum! :3

~ Ham and Potato Porickey ~

The flavour was a bit special but it was quite good! I liked the seasoning on the pretzel stick, it tasted a bit like black pepper and it was tasty! The more that you ate them, the tastier it was it seems, haha! XD;

~ Taro Beans ~

I think I already tasted something similar in the past and I really liked it! It taste a bit like corn puffs and the salty seasoning is so flavourful and tasty! I wish the package was bigger, it's so good and addictive! XD;

~ Burger Gummy ~

We have some candies like this here! ^^ The taste and texture was a bit similar, but I feel like the candy was a little bit better and more tasty? I was expecting it to be sour but it wasn't! (I don't like sour candy! XD)

~ Apple Jelly ~

The taste of apple is very faint and not sweet at all! The jelly was very very soft!

~ Nissin Matcha Coconut Cookies ~

The texture was exceptional! So crunchy and nice! There was a thin layer of melted sugar on the cookie which was delightful! The taste of matcha is really faint and didn't bother me! These cookies were a little more sweet than the Japanese cookies I am used to but I really liked them! ^^; I cannot wait to have some with a cup of tea! ~

~ Senkaku Crackers Vegetable Flavour ~

It kind of taste like the vegetable crackers we have here! The vegetable taste is not overpowering and the texture is nice and crunchy.

~ Sakura Mochi Chocolate ~

This chocolate was really good! ^^ I really like these mochi chocolate, I love the unique texture of the mochi coated with chocolate! The sakura and red bean chocolate was really tasty and it wasn't too sweet, a very delightful combo! :3

~ Choco-Taro ~

It had a light fluffy texture that taste like corn and it's coated with chocolate! There was a peanut inside! ^^;

~ Ramune Candies ~

I got the strawberry one! ^^ The bunny on it is so cute! The ramune candies are more powdery than what I remembered! XD; They were very yummy and the flavour and sweetness is very faint! They were a bit sour too!

~ Umaibo Pollock ~

It tasted a bit spicy, like BBQ almost? With a very faint seafood flavour. I liked this one! ^^

~ Sakura Sake Kitkats ~

I remember having those before in another box! The faint sake taste mixed with the sakura flavour is delightful! The chocolate is so creamy also, very good! :3 I think it's one of my favourite flavours of Kitkat! ^^

~ Cabbage Chips ~

The taste remind me of pork katsu sauce! I cannot seem to taste the cabbage at all? But I remember getting a similar one in another snack box before too! XD;

As usual, I like to do a Top 3 of my favourite snacks from the month with the Prince too! ^^;

~ Tomoyo's Top 3! ~

~ Taro Beans

~ Sakura Mochi Chocolate

~ Mike Popcorn Soy Sauce & Butter Flavour

~ Prince's Top 3! ~

Until next time my sweet pink lollipops, be safe and take care! ~

Tokyo Treat Review! ~ February 2020!

Hello my wonderful glittery hearts! ~

I'm back on my blog today with something I haven't done in a while, a Tokyo Treat Review! ^w^

Sometimes I forget that I'm subscribed to the Tokyo Treat box and I forget to cancel my suscription for the month and it's kinda what happened here but I don't mind too much... XD; I've got some yummy and cute snacks to review for you! :3

The theme this month was; Share the Love! There was a lot of chocolate and strawberry themed snacks in this box and I'm happy because that's two flavours that I like. ~

Here is everything that was in the box this month! ^^;

So as I usually do, I wrote a little review of my first impressions as I was trying the snacks with the Prince. :3

~ Strawberry Heart Marshmallow ~

The taste of strawberry is faint and not overpowering. The packaging is cute too. It tasted like natural strawberry, not artificial. I liked those and I put some in my mocha coffee too which was good! ^^;

~ Strawberry Softserve ~

The marshmallow part was kinda hard and there was a strawberry filling inside that was very sour… XD; There was also a kind of powder in the bottom which was also sour. The cone part was good though but not very flavourful... ^^''

~ Veggie Hearts ~

There was 3 flavours of chips, the green one was green pepper and spinach, the yellow one was kabocha squash and yellow pepper, and the red one was carrot, red pepper and tomato. The chips were very flavourful but were not salty at all! I think that made the flavour of the veggie stand more. My favourite was the red ones! ^^;

~ Bubby Choco Stick ~

It was so good! Like puffed corn filled with chocolate between the bubbles. The packaging is so cute too! ^^;

~ Strawberry Daifuku Kitkats ~

I feel like it really taste like strawberry daifuku!! You can taste the red bean paste and the mochi too. It isn’t too strong though and it isn’t too sweet. So good!

~ Caramel Corn ~

If you know me, you know that I really love caramel corn!! It’s a snack that is a mix between sweet and salty, it taste like peanuts/peanut butter with a faint taste of caramel. It’s my favourite snack ever!!

~ Caplico Strawberry & Chocolate Hearts ~

The flavour was super light and yummy. The texture is also nice and bubbly. It was so good and creamy!!

~ Koala's March Strawberry ~

The strawberry flavour is so good and the cookie is very crunchy, just as I like. :3 The packaging also was very cute. I love Koala’s March! ^^;

~ Honey and Apple Pure Gummies ~

It was very sour at first but after the first bites the taste of honey and apple taste mix together and the gummy in itself is sweet. I didn’t really like them that much but I can say that it was a nice fancy taste overall. XD;

~ Blendy Stick Hojicha Café au Lait ~

This was kind if like a hot chocolate/instant coffee. It smelled strongly of black tea. It tasted sweet, a bit like caramel. I had it with a bit of milk because I thought it would be yummier. XD; It was mostly like a hot chocolate but in tea form, I’ve never had anything like that and it was very yummy and I loved to try it hehe. ^^;

~ Strawberry and Milk Cream Cake ~

First of all, it didn’t look at all like the picture on the package? XD; It was a bit disappointing... ^w^''

However the cake in itself was delicious! The texture of the cake was nice and fluffy, not grainy. The strawberry filling was sweet but not too overpowering. It was creamy and good. ^^;

~ Dragon Chips ~

These were SO GOOD!! The flavour was butter and tarako (which I think is a type of fish eggs?). The buttery flavour really mixed well with the tarako flavour. The texture was crunchy and good and the shape was fun too! The packaging is also super cute! It’s the perfect snack to me! ^w^

~ Strawberry Choco Balls ~

I feel like I had these before in another snack box? The texture was a bit crispy, there was a little bit of « corn » inside. I couldn’t really taste the chocolate or the strawberry flavour though... ^^'' But the corn inside was good, it tasted a bit like toasted/roasted corn. XD; It was a bit sweet but not too sweet either. I was expecting something a bit more strawberry flavoured honestly. ^^''

~ Uncle Pierre's Roll Cake ~

The texture was nice, the filling was creamy, the taste of strawberry wasn’t too overpowering and it wasn’t too sweet. The cake in itself was very good, it tasted like vanilla and natural. However the filling wasn’t pink like on the packaging and it was… kind of ugly looking. XD;

~ Chocobat ~

This one was weird… XD It was like a stick of bread dipped in chocolate? XD; The texture was very bread-ish too… The chocolate was good though but it was bit disappointing to be honest. XD;

~ Black Thunder ~

This one was impressive! It was like a very crunchy cookie dipped in chocolate. The chocolate flavour was really nice, it tasted like strong cocoa! It was a bit more sweet and flavourful than the other candies from Japan I am used to. The texture was crunchy and it was really nice!

~ Aji Cheese Chips ~

The texture was super light but a bit crunchy. It tasted mostly like toasted corn and very lightly of cheddar cheese. It was good. ^^;

I usually do my and the Prince's top 3 for each box! ^w^
