This is Shimi Choco Corn Milky Red Bean snack!
They’re Little star shaped puffs dipped in some sort of chocolate and dusted with red bean powder.
These have a much softer texture than a traditional corn puff which I think is due to the chocolate coating on the snack. It gives them less of a crunch and an overall more delicate bite. The chocolate itself is creamy and tastes kind of custard like which is super yummy!
The red bean flavor is lightly dusted on and very subtle thanks to the strong chocolate flavor. You get the subtle earthy notes without feeling like you’re eating spoonfuls of azuki beans. As someone who’s not huge into red bean paste, I loved this! It was just enough that I could enjoy the taste and enjoy I did o(^▽^)o
These are VERY sweet so I would probbably not make them a daily snack, but I could see myself eating them as a treat now and then!
Do you like azuki?

It’s the holiday season and I decided to try this Christmas Edition of Shimi Choco Corn! It comes in cute packaging with a snowy Christmas tree on it!
The snack itself is a star shaped corn puff soaked in chocolate!! It’s wonderful! They’re slightly less crunchy than a normal corn puff due to the chocolate coat, but it still has a fairly nice bite. You taste a little of the corn but it’s mostly a chocolate flavour which is delicious! It’s just a really yummy airy chocolate that’s not overly sweet thanks to the corn. On top of that the star shape is super cute and very fitting for Christmas!

I would really reccomend this snack! Chocolate coated corn puffs get an A+ in my book.

Today’s sweet is LOOK Chocolate in purple sweet potato and chestnut.
Based on the package, I thought it would be one big bar with squares you can break off, but it’s not! It’s actually small individual squares of chocolate in a box like bonbons.
First I had to try the purple sweet potato since I personally love the flavor.
So I did. And all I got was chocolate taste.
It was kind of dissapointing
But I moved on and tried the chestnut.
Also, just chocolate.
I was really confused. There was a diffrent colour inside. Why could I only get the chocolate taste and not some of the other flavors?
Then I tried them a diffrent way. I put one in my mouth and let the chocolate melt. This time I got to taste the actual flavor!
Purple sweet potato was yummy! Subtly and sweet but really good!
Surprisingly though, I loved the chestnut. It was nutty (duh) with the kind of roasted flavour like peanuts with a yummy caramel on the top.
The only downside was that you couldn’t get the taste just eating the chocolate pieces. If there was less chocolate and more potato and chestnut it would be way better!
Do you like these flavours?

I have a short one for you today
This is a Sweet Sake Kit Kat
It’s a white chocolate Kit Kat wrapped in super elegant gold wrapping.
This one is sweet and delightful. At first it tastes like white chocolate which is allready good, but then you get the nice warmth that comes with alcohol which was surprisingly good! It dosent have any of the burn of liquor, just the warm after feeling.
Honestly I’m a huge fan! I don’t know if this one contains actual alcohol (They have made kit kats with trace amounts before) so tread cautiously if you prefer not to have alcohol in your life, but if that’s no factor to you, I would highly reccomend trying these
