Some type of cracker that has some kinda chocolate flavoring inside :sweat: :sweat:

Can't be more specific then that. :beaten:


If it's got chocolate in it - or even chocolate flavouring- then I need to try it! lol

I'll have to see if I can track some down.

Oh Tu Triky - no need to apologize; I found your joke funny, and wasn't offended at all. :applaud:

It's a good habit Tu-san :)

I've had a few different types of Japanese confectionary: One was a type of small round cake/biscuit with something like blueberry flavering inside. Very tasty. Also some (savoury) wasabi crisps.

Those mushrooms look tasty though.

This was a few years ago...... one of our Japanese suppliers brought some over as a gift. This was before I was so interested in Japan etc. I wish I could remember more. All I remember was they were small, curly, and kinda sweet and hot at the same time.

I'm always happy to see pictures of sweets! :mrgreen:
Those traditioneal sweets you posted look beautiful. I've never tried any like that. I've only tried the modern, popular ones by Meiji, Morinaga, Uha, Glico, etc.


Some more sweets for you to consider - on the left, well it's more a snack; some peas in their pods, cooked with a bit of oil. They are wonderful, and you can't get anything like them in the UK.
On the right, the mighty Hi-Chew; chewy (!) flavoured sweets. I love the lychee ones especially; again, I've never seen lychee -flavoured anything in the UK.Below - very very sour Shige Superkix lemon-flavoured hard chews. These hurt your tongue at first, but they are well worth the pain.

What do wasabi crisps taste like? Am I right in thinking wasabi is hot? (Never tried any).
Actually, I'm not sure I even know what wasabi is... :ashamed:



Here is green tea jelly (picture from the Japanese Kitchen). I'm not sure I'd like the green tea cake pictured earlier in this thread, because I really didn't like this. And the jelly was really sinister looking (albeit beautifully packaged). I've still got some in the cupboard, which I really should get rid of.
