KRACIE'S NARU GUMMY IN GRAPE.

this is a restock of the popular kit,

this kit makes a vine that you twist and twirl in to a special mixture and the end result are tasty gummies,

these are easy to make and prepare and even easier to eat ,

fun to make and taste good,

MEIJI FRAN IN CHOCOLATE CREAM.

these are a pocky like snack.

made from real butter,and whipped chocolate cream.there are 3 packets of Fran and 3 large cookie sticks.

KOALA NO MARCHIN CHEESECAKE.

cute Japanese biscuits these are so good these biscuits i have yet to get a flavour i have not liked ,so this cheesecake filling is sweet but creamy and very Moorish.impressed again.

POLINKI IN CURRY MESHI,

curry mesh is a piece of rice and is a mascot for Japanese curry,

the triangle corn shaped crisps these are curried polinki.
we loved these and they were so addictive they didn't last 5 minutes,

FITS DRAGONBALL,

a Japanese popular chewing gum ,this is a dragonballz edition, inside is stick  gum the flavour is kumehame Hawaii,(tropical flavour).

the has built in fresher and only found in japan,

OREO BITS IN MATCHA LATTE,

these oreos are only being released in japan at present ,the matcha latte flavour is a great filling sandwiched between the original oreo biscuit,

then put into tiny bite size pieces.

perfect for travel or on the go ,i found these strong,as I'm not a matcha kind of girl,

WATA PACHI IN RAMUNE SODA,

this is flavoured with ramune soda a great traditional soda found in japan,its unique in that the candy has popping cotton candy inside that turns to gum,wata means cotton if you was wondering,

pachi is Japanese for popping,

these were really nice and i liked they texture and taste of this product.

UMAIBO CREAMY CHOCO BITES.

these are a traditional classic, 

umaibo are chocolate corn puffs.

and as you eat it the texture changes to a creamy mix and they really taste nice.

think corn crisps but in a dry chocolate form,

FETTUCCINE IN PEACH.

peach flavoured gummy candies.these are shaped liked fettuccine pasta,they are chewy and really tasty ,the peach is fragrant, great for all candy and gummy lovers,these jelly gummy sweets are always so tasty , real fragrant peaches,

TWINBOW 

a different type of gummy in that they are split into two flavours,cola and lemon.or soda and grape.

each together of singles or mix and match them up for new flavours.

those taste sour and fizzy , but a great flavour combo,

GASHAPON.JAPANESE CAPSULE TOY.

gashapon capsule toys are epic popular over japan ,they have branded goods in them and even big name merch inside.

there are now even gashapon stores lines floor to ceiling popping up over the country as people clamber to collect them and find limited edition and rare finds,these are high quality products not like the ones found in the machines found outside sweet shops since the 70's in the UK.

so a good box this month for April, a good selection and the only thing not keen on was the matcha latte,

i love gummy sweets and gum and candy ,i also love anything with  grape in which is so not cool in the UK.

looking forward to the may edition to arrive now, good value for money and it took a week to ship and arrive in the UK, no customs issues like normal either, all well packed in a box,

i also love the added gashapon now days in the box its fun to see which one we all receive and collect on instagram,

but a fun and good product.

GANKO AGE.

so the oyatsu box is a great  monthly box,we got a load of special limited editions this month,i still like this box a lot and it slightly differs from others,so i can't wait to see what April brings to us,

value for money is great again and not so easy to grab these snacks in the UK especially if you don't live near a city to go to the Asian supermarkets.

MY BOX.

UNBOXED,

POCKY DEMITASSE.
a brand new flavour of pocky for 2015,this small box has cocoa sticks covered with dark rich luxury  chocolate.
these are limited edition and only available for a limited time in premium places.

these are quite strong and very rich in taste ,i like the texture and they still have that moreish biscuit love.

KABAYA PANDA COOKIES,
cue cute mini panda biscuits, crispy biscuits with a chocolate cream topping,kept fresh in a foil bag .
each biscuit has a different panda expression.


these never lasted long ,tasty panda cookies ,buttery and sweet with a chocolate  covering.

MEIGUM RAMUNE.
meigum is the Japanese leader of soft candy,
these are chewy sweet  bars ,with the iconic ramune soda flavours.

these are soft gummy bars that are so sweet but have the best flavours ,i love ramune soda,

NINJA MESHI. MOUNTAIN GRAPE 
so we got a packet of ninja food ,ninja meshi is cool packaged candy,the ninja wears a suit and a tie ,Japanese call this salary man,
these candy are soft and chewy with a great grape flavour,

so these are like a flat jelly bean with a harder shell ,inside is a chewy softer centre that is quite sharp not sour but sharp,i happy its grape flavour as i loved these even more for that reason.

KOIKE POLINKI,SWEET CORN FLAVOUR.
OK so these are a real Japanese treat,, these triangle corn puffs are light and fluffy with a real sweetcorn flavour,the flavour has been refined over 3 decades to perfect the best yet,

right back in the 80's in the UK we have corn snacks called skips crisps, and they are prawn cocktail ,but back then they brought out a sweetcorn flavour,this reminds me of those crisps,the flavour is so good ,the crisps are crispy and crunchy and worthy of being put in such a large bag for one person to eat.

GASHAPON JAPANESE CAPSULE TOY,
a real capsule toy full of high quality real McCoy Japanese merchandise,
these machines are found all over japan,includes toys or stationary,accessories,
this month is a figure from one piece roronoa zoro,

CHOCO KINAKO MOCHI,
a traditional Japanese chewy candy,this DIY kit lets you make an instant version of the classic,each piece then can be covered in kinako(sweet soy bean flour),and chocolate.

SIMPLY follow the pictures on the back of the pack and its easy to do ,then simply eat,

PETIT MATCHA.
chocolate chip matcha cookies.this is a long tube with loads of mini cookies.21 actually,these are infused with matcha tea and chocolate chips,

these were not as strong as the chocolate is ,so the cookies were nice to eat,i crumbled the majority into a biscuit base though and made a chocolate mousse and poured it over , the matcha tea base went so well with the rich chocolate mousse,

NIGATA DEEP FRIED SENBEI,
deep fried rice crackers,with a hint of soy sauce,a traditional snack eastern all over japan.

these are slightly salty rice crackers ,but so crispy ,they were very tasty and Moorish,

PURE FRUIT GUMMY -YUZU ANS MIKAN,
Japanese gummies always taste of authentic fruits, the pure range is up there in the top3 brands for this reason.
yuzu and mikan are citrus and sour flavours, they taste like lemon and lime,

shaped like mini fruit segments these are sour but sweet and fragrant seem to over ride the sourness ,these are very soft gummies that melt away in the mouth, very sugary on the outside,

MAGICAL TWIN POP COMBO GUMMY,
with over 11 flavours to discover these candies are a great way to play and make flavours up.
all can be combined to invent new flavours,
eating a lemon and a grape gummy will give you a cola gummy,

I really had fun testing these out and no other way to pass the time while getting a long tattoo done is by inventing new flavours to keep you going,
i had some real funny flavours but they all worked in one way or another,

so overall i really liked the products in this box ,it felt nice and jam packed with goodies .11 products in total ,and me and my son enjoyed eating these ,for value for money shipped to your door ,it works out cheaper for me in the UK.we get a good range of products every month, sometimes it candy orientated others is savoury snack, ,generally its a mix of the two that makes a good all round box, 

check back my previous reviews on boxes and i will see you next month for the march review,
