NANDEMOBOX may edition.



 This box is a PR SAMPLE .

good evening its been a while ,
tonight i am bringing you a box that was sent to me for reviewing ,
when i first came across this box it was just setting up and the first box was being sent out, so i thought i would try it out, 
i love my subscription boxes and love candy boxes from around the world so WHY NOT.
so NANDEMOBOX is a company still freshly sprouted and gaining a name on social media sites. you can never have enough companies that ship worldwide especially as the UK and Europe seem to miss out enough on loads of treats.
NANDEMO translates  to mean anything. NANDEMOBOX  is located in Osaka japan.
the box cost $25 .00 and ships worldwide ,buy here snack box
each box contains a pound in candy ,dummies,chocolate and such and each box always has 1 DIYkit to make.
payment is done with paypal for piece of mind.
my box arrived in under a week,


so the box is a deep well packaged and filled cardboard box,and is sturdy for international postal services, 
my box had no issues with customs  and arrived in the UK by royal mail,

the may theme is TO NEW THINGS,
in japan may is when students graduate ,workers start new jobs and settle into new environments,
also the weather gets hotter,

my box,



unboxed.




menu info card,





LOTTE'S CHOCORANTON PEAR FLAVOUR,
i love these having tried an toffee apple flavour, this is the pear version and yes wow,these are all individually wrapped ,
they are so crispy,almonds and pear dipped in chocolate,this is kind of  like a Florentine biscuit from Europe but the sharp pear cuts through it and has such a sharp flavour.





PUCHI OKOMEAGE.
okameage is fried rice ,these are crispy crunchy rice crackers.these are snack size so they are great for on the go,
these are tasty and are great to munch on.



LIMITED EDITION  KOALA NO MARCH.
this is the spring summer flavour ,rich creamy cheesecake flavour, the crisp outer biscuit blends well with the smooth creamy custard filling,
you don't need to each many of these and they last well, a great box of snacks,
we love the cute pictures on the biscuit shells with these boxes.



THE MAY MAIN ITEM,
FRUIT MIX POPCORN,
to celebrate may with bright colours this fruit flavoured coloured popcorn does the trick at brightening the month up.
this fruit popcorn is made in NARA PREFECTURE,the purple is grape the red is strawberry and the orange is orange and yellow is indeed lemon flavoured, 
totally a different type of flavour than we get in the UK.







SHERBET PERO GRAPE FLAVOUR, 
a grape flavoured sherbet dibdab with a lolly that you did into the sherbet.
a great combo..



SEIBUTSU ZUKAN,
these are sealife gummies with a cola flavour and fruity flavour.
inside is a collectors card as well, 
these come in a plastic mould and you peel them out to eat , tasty and didn't last long.






CANDY BOX,
four fruit hard gummy sweets they have a hard shell but soft and chewy inside ,
a popular kids sweet in japan i can see why, we shared the flavours out and they don't strongly flavour sweets and candy in japan ,these were very delicate.





PEKO CHAN'S CHOCOLATE PENCILS,
peko chan is a cute and popular character in japan ,she has a cute sticker pack included ,these foil wrapped chocolate pencils are great for sharing ,
the chocolate is not like european chocolate as its not overly sweet.






CHOCO DE PUZZLE,
i got the bear edition, this is a DIY kit making set.it makes cute chocolate bear faces , simply follow the you tube video or pictures on the back .


PUCCHO BANPEIYU 
these are great chews to eat ,soft candy and you will eat the whole pack in one go,the flavour is banpeiyu which is pomelo, an orange and grapefruit hybrid fruit ,they are huge in size, and very dry tasting.
inside is small pieces of juicy gummy sweets.



 
ok so this was a good first box for us and we really enjoyed it ,it contained a great selection of sweets and candy, and minimal chocolate a bonus, this is a great value box and extremely fast shipping,we look forward to going forward with this company,well worth trying this box out if you like your candy and subscription boxes ,
check out their kawaii box they sell as well.




this box was sent for reviewing purposes and all thoughts were mine and my sons, we were not influenced in our overall feelings for this box ,we have been truthful and all photos were taken by myself,we have not been paid for this post,

this month it is  a calm down month after all the December candy.




So the January box laid out

this is a giant icecream cone.filled with chocolate.
made with a wafer, with fluffy chocolate,this is a limited edition chocolate bomber that also  has 2 layers of white chocolate and milk chocolate ,then covered in a hard dark chocolate shell, 
this was really tasty and the size was huge that me and my son  shared it.
it was an interesting  taste not creamy more dry, and the consistency like an aero chocolate bar found in the UK aerated, 


the packaging has popular anime and youkai characters. found in japan these are as popular as pokemon.





TOHATO CHOCOBI.
chocobi is tohato's most well known snack, made famous by the crayon shin- chan anime series,
these are crispy star shaped choco corn snacks.
these are very tasty ,crispy and the box does not last long.





































POCKY MIDI STRAWBERRY.
these are pocky sticks but they shorter and fatter than the regular sized ones, 
they have more chocolate and double the amount of strawberry chocolate, 
these are sweet ,and quite sickly, i couldn't eat one of the mini packs in a session ,great for sharing,
id love to try other flavours of the midi collection.




PARIKORE GUMMY PEACH AND GRAPE .
Kano makes these are they are not the usual soft gummies, they have a unique crunchy outer layer.the inner is soft and chewy.
porikore comes from the name when you bite into it.
these have a mix of peach and grape flavours.
the texture was strange not a hard shell not a soft ,it had a crisp fine layer coating then a gummy underneath.





MORINAGA RAMUNE SODA CANDIES.
the traditional ramune bottle is filled with ramune flavoured candies,not hard candies as such they melt in the mouth , 





GASHAPON JAPANESE CAPSULE TOY,
these are going to be added each month and vary from box to box ,

i received a keyring this month.




HANAKAPPA  DIY JELLY,
OK this is a make it up kit,  the candy kit is for jelly ,hannakappa is a Japanese kappa river creature.with a flower growing on its head.

this kit was easy to set up and make,
fill the cup with the powder and add with water tot he red line and stir  as it grows in size in the cup then place int he fridge to set  for 10 minutes.





HI CHEW MINI,
chewy candy with 4 flavours ,apple,grape.lemon,strawberry.

this is a special edition made from strawberries from kumamoto,
the 2 types inside are creamy milk strawberry and fresh strawberry.






DON KOEDA CHOCOLATE 
well this is a chocolate bar features fashion celebrity don - konishi.
its made of chocolate biscuit ,rice puffs,almond,
can't tell you if it was nice never tried it ,




found empty in sons bed , he says it was nice , a chocolate rice krispie bar.



so i like that this months box has a different appeal after the December box ,of which we are still finishing off.
for value for money and the fact in the UK we don't have many stores to buy this type of snacks from it still works out cheaper to buy a monthly box.variety is always good ,the choice is always mixed sweet and savoury,we liked the box this month for many reasons, the only thing uneaten so far is the pocky strawberry ,
roll on February's box .
