Yet Another Marzipan Chocolate

Review nr. 29!! Hey guys, I know I've reviewed mazipan chocolate before but I swear this one is different! (plus I really like marzipan chocolate... .-.) To start, this brand is cheaper and more common here in Portugal. The marzipan in these is not the usual soft almond paste, but an almond cream which contains alcohol. And finally, this is not a chocolate bar, but little chocolate cubes. (cute and helps with portion control)

Packaging: the chocolate comes in a red cardboard box with the Schogetten logo, pictures of the cubes and of some marzipan. Inside there is silver foil sorounding the cubes.

The cubes: the cubes are made of thick dark chocolate with white/beige almond cream inside. The top of the cube as a cute star/sun design.

The Flavour: I actually preffer the chocolate in these to the fancy one. It's thicker and richer, more noticeable. The cream is really nice, doesn't have as great of a texture as the other one but still good. I really like these, I really do.

Rating: 8,3 out of 10
Overall, really good chocolate. I gave them a slightly higher rating than the other one for the chocolate quality alone. If you like marzipan, pick these up because they're yummy and easier to find.

Cream Soda

 Review nr. 28!! Hey guys remember my first review in this blog? The vanilla cola? Well today I brought something similar to see if it tasted the same: cream soda. This particular cream soda is made with "aged vanilla", both real and artificial, acording to the label.
The cola also had vanilla, but it was just a hint over the traditional Coca-Cola taste. This drink has no cola so it should be different, right? Let us see!

Packaging: The soda comes in a silver and cream/coperish-gold can with the brand "A&W" logo and the flavour in brown letters. It also says the vanilla thing I mentioned before.

The soda: The soda is a golden color and carbonated, it creats a nice foam when you pour it into a glass. From the picture it kind of looks like beer, I asure you it isn't, it's not even alcoholic.

The Flavour: As soon as I tasted this the word that came to mind wasn't "vanilla", it was "caramel" . But not like the caramely flavour of cola, it's not like cola at all, let's get that clear. It's actually a mix of traditional sweet caramel and vanilla. Like vanilla fudge. Really sweet but enjoyable.

Rating: 7 out of 10
Overall, pretty good but just a little bit too sweet for me, I wouldn't be able to drink a whole can. But if you enjoy sweets a lot, go for it!

Kebab Flavoured Chips!

 Review nr. 27!!! I'm back with a salty snack, guys! I haven't done one of these in a while so it's about time I take a break from the sweets. The time I have some more chips, but not just any chips: Oishi (which means delishious in japanese, a good signe), kebab flavoured potato chips!

Packaging: the chips come in a blue plastic bag with a picture of them and of some yummy kebabs. The bag seemed pretty full, unfortunatly it was over half empty....

The chips: the chips are your standard crispy, slightly brownish yellow chips. Unfortunatly I wasn't able to find a single one that wasn't broken, they were all pretty crumbled up.

The flavour: these surprised me. They actually taste like kebabs. You can really taste the meat, the peppers and the onions. This time you actually get what it is advertised (except it was suposed to be a full bag and only half is filled .-.). But, contrary to what you may think, I didn't like this too much, maybe I'm just not a meatty chips fan.

Rating: 6,5 out of 10

Overall, not bad except for the amount of chips, flavour is true to what it says. I didn't like them too much but that's just me. If you like kebabs give them a try!

Strawberry Ramune

 Review nr. 26!! Guys today I bring you something every Japan lover must know, Ramune!
Ramune, for those of you who don't know it, is japanese soda. The thing that makes this so different is that ramune bottles are sealed with a marble that you have to push down to drink! It's fun and refreshing at the same time!

Instructions: Rip the pink "marbel pusher" (?) off, this may be a little hard, it sure was for me. Turn the piece around and press it firmly agains the marbel at the oppening of the bottle untill the marbel drops. Poor into cup and enjoy! After you're done drinking, put the pink piece back in the bottle opening to seal it so it doesn't lose it's fizziness.

Packaging: this ramune comes in a plastic bottle with drawings of pink sheep (maybe?) on the outside, a pink cap and a pink "marbel pusher" (still don't know what to call it). The marbel is clear.

The drink: the liquid is light pink and really fizzy. Its smells like strawberry.

The flavour: I really liked this one. The drink has a nice artificial strawberry flavour which is sweet but not too much and highly carbonated. Yummy!

Rating: 8 out of 10
Overall, pretty good drink, tasty and refreshing. If you like strawberry stuff and wan't to try something different pick this up!

Pocky: Strawberry Flavour

 Review nr. 25!!! Guy, I'm sad to anounce this could possibly be my last Pocky review, since I can't find other pocky flavours here in Portugal (sad Jessica is indeed very sad :c) But today we still have something, we have Strawberry Pocky!!!

Packaging: strawberry pocky comes in a pink cardboard box with a picture of the pocky sticks and some cute strawberries, plus the Glico logo on the side. Inside there is a silver plastic bag with the Glico logo all over.

The Pocky: the sticks are made of the usual light and crispy pocky bisquit. It's coated in light pink cream with little red strawberry specks. It smells like delicious artificial strawberry.

The Taste: like all types of pocky, these are delishious ok? The bisquit is always yummy and the coating in these has rich artificial strawberry flavour that will take all strawberry lovers to heaven. It's impossible to have just one pocky stick guys, impossible!

Rating: 10,5 out of 10
Overall, not as good as the chocolate ones to me (nothing will ever be .-.) but really freaking good! Pick them up (unless you hate strawberry) and you'll love them for sure!

Pretz : Tiramisu

Review nr. 24!!! Guys, today I'll continue what I started yesterday with another tiramisu flavoured snack! This time it's tiramisu Pretz. Considered to be Pocky's "cousin", Pretz, also made by Glico, are bisquit sticks that, unlike Pocky,  aren't covered in cream but dusted with flavouring.

Packaging: Pretz have similar packaging to Pocky, they come in a brown cardboard box with the Pretz (Double) logo and pictures of the sticks and some tiramisu.

The Pretz: The sticks are made out of the same bisquit as pocky, light crispy, slightly brown, covered in brown powder on one side (unlike with cheeto powder, it does not stick to you hands). They smell intensly of coffee.


Taste: These also don't taste like actual tiramisu to me. To me, they actually taste like a latte, sweet coffe and milk, with a bisquit. Not bad, I actually love lattes, but if you're looking for real tiramisu, this is not it.

Rating: 7 out of 10
Overall, I like them, but I was expecting a different flavour. Still, coffee lovers give it a shot!

Tiramisu Cupcakes

 Review nr. 23! Today guys, I'm bringing you a sweet from a South Corean company, Orion, but with an Italian taste: Tiramisu Cupcakes!
These are soft little cupcakes with cream filling.

Packaging: These come in a brown cardboard box with pictures of the cupcakes and a tiramisu. Inside, the 5 cupcakes are individually packed in plastic bags with a picture of the cupcakes and the flavour (Pretty handy if you ant to take your snack to go)

The Cupcakes: the cupcakes are about the size of my palm, have a light brownish color and a thick yellow cream on the inside. They smell very intensly of coffee.

The Taste: The cake is pretty fluffy and tasty, it has a pretty intense coffee flavour. The cream though...I personally didn't like it, too thick, too sweet, does not taste at all like tiramisu mascapone cream (that yummy mix of the chesee, the coffee and the licour, sooooo good!). To me it has just a slight citrusy flavour mixed with overly seeet cheese cream.

Rating: 7 out of 10
Overall, I do like the cake of these, maybe I'll just take the cream out of them...if you like coffee you can give it a shot but don't expect that traditional tiramisu taste, or you'll be disapointed.

Wasabi Covered Peanuts

 Review nr. 22!! Guys, do you like spicy stuff? Like really spicy? If you do, you must like wasabi!
For those of you who dont know, wasabi is a spicy grean condiment made out of the root of the wasabi plant.
Today I'll be reviewing Wasabi Covered Peanuts!

Packaging: the peanuts come in a green plastic bag , with the flavour writen in a red band, the company's logo and pictures of the peanuts.

The Peanuts: The peanuts are the size of peanut M&M's, covered in a crispy green layer.

The Flavour: Ok guys, I was really scared to try these. Wasabi is known for being reeeeealy spicy and I do like spice, but not that much. I tried this for the blog only (commitment guys! you better apreciate it u.u). Fortunatly, the coating on the outside of these is not all wasabi, it has some corn startch mixed into it for crunch. The result is a pretty spicy peanut, that burns the back of your throath but doesn't make you want to cry. The flavour itself is not bad, salty and spicy.

Rating: 6,5 out of 10
Overall, not bad but not impressive. My parents seem to enjoy them with beer though.

Apple Pie Gum

Review nr. 21!  So, Extra Dessert Delights is a gum brand that does sugar free gum that tastes like actual desserts! How great is that? (specially for me since I'm kind of a gum addict .-.)
So, at the store they had about 3 flavours, but they do a lot more from what I've seen online. I decided to pick up the Apple Pie kind.

The Packaging: The gum comes in a brown cardboard box wrapped in plastic. The box has a picture of an apple pie and the Extra logo.

The Gum: The gum comes individually wrapped in silver foil. It's long and thin and has a light green color. It smells a lot like apple and cinnamon.

The Flavour: This is probably my new favourite gum flavour. I love apples and I love cinnamon and the combination of the two in this gum is just excellent, no one flavour overpowers the other. It really tastes like apple pie, I'm sold!


Rating: 9 out of 10
Overall, really nice gum. If you like apple pie or just want to try something different, pick it up.

Anpan!

Review nr. 20!! Wow guys, 20th review, this is impressive stuff :o
To celebrate this special ocasion I bring you something even I exitated before trying. An old japanese favourite: Anpan. What is Anpan, you may ask? Well, Anpan is japanese bread with sweet red bean filling inside!
I know what you're thinking guys "sweet red bean paste? that sounds gross" well I thought that too but this blog forces me to be brave and take chances, so I did! And what do you know...I was once again surprised...

 Packaging: the place I bough this at sells anpan in simple, individual, clear plastic packages (not very interesting but it gets the job done)

The Anpan: The anpan is made of flaky pastery, with a thick layer of red bean paste inside and some black sesame seeds on top. It's about the size of my palm.

The Flavour: This is surprisingly...really freakin good! I did not see that comming I asure you, but anpan is defenetly on my "to buy" list now! The pastery is nice, light and flaky on the outside and a little hard around the filling. The filling is so good! It doesn't taste like beans at all, it's kind of like a less sweet type of marmalade, really yummy! I, honest to god, ate it all, it takes a really good treat to make me do that, I asure you.

Overall, really good, an amazing surprise. Defenetly worth picking up, I asure you! Don't be scared ;)

Beer Tartlets

Review nr. 19!! Today I'll be reviewing some somewhat unusual Portuguese pasteries: beer tartlets or "queijadas de cerveja" in portuguese. These are traditional portuguese pastries that have beer mixed into the batter.

The Package: you can get these at a cafe in Lisbon, they come in a regular white cardboard box for pasteries, with the cafe logo in blue.

The Tartlets: They come in a hard traditional tartlet shell, the top is crispy and crumbly, but the inside is really moist, like cheesecake or undercooked cake batter.

The Taste: these do not taste like beer at all. For those that eat this knowing there is beer in it you may notice a bitter aftertaste like you get from beer. Aside from that, the moist inside mostly taste like a "pastel de feijão" a white bean based Portuguese pastery, just sweet and rich, really good. The crunchiness from the top and the hard shell give it great texture.

Rating: 8,5 out of 10
Pretty good, not well known but defenetly tasty. Portuguese readers, pick these up!

Store: Queijadas de Belém (also available at the Campo Grande metro station)

Pear Cider

Review nr. 18!! I think by now I'm starting to get a hang of different places for me to buy the food for my reviews, it's not as easy as you think I asure you. For this review I thought of IKEA. IKEA is a very popular store, it exists in a lot of coutries, but I believe not everyone has had the guts to try out the food from the swedish shop. So I went to my local IKEA and bought this, Pear Cider (the non alcoholic kind).

Packaging: the cider comes in a white can with green letters and a green silouette of a pear. The top and bottom of the can are silver.

The cider: it's a really pale yellowish color, carbonated (you can even see the bubbles in the picture)

The Flavour: the drink is really lightly pear flavoured (it's a mix between apple and pear actually...), tart and really efervescent.

Rating: 6 out of 10
Overall, not a big deal but not bad either. Pick it up if you're curious but I wouldn't waste my money on it.

Peanut Mochi!

 Reviw nr. 17!! Today Im continuing my mochi journey! This time I found a different mochi brand with other flavours, such as this one: Peanut Mochi!
I really like peanut based stuff (made a batch of peanutbutter cupcakes a couple of days ago...soooo good! *o*) so I figured I would like these.

Packaging: the mochi comes in a cardboard box with a picture of mochi on the front and some stuff written in chinese. Inside there's an orange plastic bag and inside that there's a wite plastic tray with 6 mochi balls in cute little yellow cupcake cases. (much better packaging than the other mochi I had before)

The Mochi: The mochi is covered in crumbs (maybe shredded peanut, maybe bread crumbs?) and inside the rice paste there's a (much bigger amount than the other ones', my complaints have been heard!) peanut paste.

The Flavour: These little peanut balls were the answer to my mochi prairs! These are not only fun to eat but also delishious! First of all, the peanut felling is great, sweet but salty, really yummy; the amount of it is just right, not like the other ones' that had too much rice paste and not enough jam. The rice paste is nice and gummy like and the crumbs give it a nice texture.

Rating: 9,8 out of 10
Overall, one of the best asian things I have ever tasted, I'm totally addicted to these and I'll surelly be buying more! Pick this up if you like peanuts, you won't be sorry!

Lychee Drink

 Review nr. 16!! Hey guys, ever had lychees before? They're a fruit that comes in a small roundish, spicky, hard shell. Inside the flesh is white and that's what you eat. They're pretty common in asia and I like them a lot. Today I got a lychee drink!

Packaging: The drink comes in a white metal can with a drawing of some lychees and the name of the beverage in french (yes that did seem suspicious to me but it's made by "cock brand" which, dirty jokes aside, is chinese)

The Drink: The liquid is not carbonated. It has a ligh yellowish color and it smells really sweet and lychee like.

The Taste: The drink is pretty sweet and at first you taste lychees, as you keep drinking however, it startes tasting more and more like an 8 fruit Bongo, a juice I used to drink as a child.

Shrimp Crackers

Review nr. 15!! Hey guys! Today I have something else I got at the asian supermaket: Shrimp Crackers!
A couple of months ago, emmymadeinjapan (one of my favourite youtubers and my main inspiration for creating this blog, if you've never seen her videos check them out) made a video where she ate this. She loves them, so I decided to give them a try.

Packaging:  the crackers come in a red plastic bag with a picture of the crackers and a nice little shrimp.

The Crackers: These corn starch based crackers kinda look like Cheetos, but instead of the radioactive orange color, they are a light brownish yellow color. Once you open the bag...I'm not going to lie, they smell reeealy fishy, like those fish food flakes for goldfish? Yeah...

The Flavour: These don't taste as fishy as they smell, thank god, first they have a very light shrimp flavour and after the first too you just taste the corn goodness. They are quite light and addictive!

Overall, pretty yummy, if you like seafood give them a try!

PassionFruit Chocolate

 Review nr. 14! Since this blog is read by people outside of Portugal, I decided to also review some portuguese products that are a little unusual (so I can show some of our culture to foreigners and still keep my portuguese readers interested).
So, Regina is a portuguese chocolate company, amongst the traditional chocolate flavours, it also produces a range of fruit flavoured chocolate bars. My favourite one is the Passion Fruit flavoured one. And that's what this review is going to be about!

Packaging: The chocolate bar comes wrapped in purple plastic with the Regina Logo and a picture of some chocolate and some beautiful passion fruits.

The Chocolate Bar: The chocolate bar is thin, devided into 4 squares with little stripes in the center. It's all chocolate, it has no kind of cream in the middle.

The Flavour: The bar is plain milk chocolate with a strong, but not sickening, passion fruit flavouring. Regina chocolate is pretty high quality, sweet and rich with a creamy texture. It mixes perfectly with the passion fruit to the point where you can taste both flavours without one overpowering the other. It's so yummy and decadent, a real treat I offer myself when I'm feeling down (yes I eat this when I'm sad, don't judge :c)

Rating: 9,5 out of 10
Overal, really good, if you live in Portugal give it a try (Regina also makes strawberry, orange and pineapple flavoured ones) don't be scared of the different flavours, if you like passion fruit you'll love it.

Banana Pocky!

 (Un)luck 13th review! So, if you read my last Pocky review you know how much I like it (more like love/am obcessed with/ would sell a kidney for it... .-. this may be part of the reason why I'm single...) This time I'm reviewing another Pocky flavour (which is my mom's favourite, actually) Choco Banana Pocky!

Packaging: Choco Banana Pocky comes in a yellow box with the Pocky logo in black, pictures of the pocky sticks, an adorable monkey and some yummy looking banana slices with chocolate syrup. Inside there's a silver plastic bag with Glico (the company that produces Pocky) written all over it, it contains about 12 sticks (the banana boxes are smaller than the chocolate ones)

The Pocky Sticks: The choco banana pocky sticks are as long and thin as the chocolate ones. They're made chocolate biscuit covered with a banana flavoured cream.

Flavour: The chocolate in the stick is not too sweet and noticeable, the banana, on the other hand, has an intensely sweet artificial banana taste. Pretty freakin good combination guys!

Rating: 10,5 out of 10
Overall, not as heavinly delishious as the chocolate ones to me (my mom does not agree, she loves these above all other flavours of Pocky) but still one of the best things you'll ever eat. Pick these up, for sure!!

Aero Mint Bubbles

12th Review! So I'm sure most of you have eard of the Aero chocolate bar, right? The Nestle chocolate bar with air bubbles which help it melt in your mouth? Yeah that one! It's pretty common, we have it here in Portugal. However, we do not have Aero bubbles, nor mint Aero. So I had to try the Aero Mint Bubbles. 

Packaging: Aero bubbles come in a small green plastic bag with the Aero logo, an image of the actual mint bubbles and the calorie amount per bag.

The Bubbles: The bubbles are the exact size of Maltesers and they're half brown and half green. Inside they are all green and have the traditional Aero bubbles. 

Taste: These taste exactly how they look, like milk chocolate and mint. I wish the mint taste was a little stronger (I'm a big After Eight fan) but for those of you who don't like strong mint flavours, these are pretty good. I enjoy these, I'm not gonna eat the whole bag, but i'll eat like two at a time. 

Rating: 8 out of 10
Pretty nice, I enjoy them most for the novelty, but the have a pretty good mild mint taste. Pick them up!

Sweet and Sour Chips

Review nr.11! Since I ate this today (and crushed most of the chips by accident because they were in my bag .-.), it's only fitting that I review them, the other chips I got at Lidl: Vitasia - Sweet and Sour Chips!

 Packaging: the chips come in a black plastic bag with a picture of the product and some steriotypical chinese things (the sweet and sour sauce in the cup with the asian style spoon and the red dragon background). The bag also advertises the chips as having a "tasty and crunchy chinese style".

The Chips: these chips are not made of actual potatoes, they're made with corn startch, as so, they are thicker than the average chip and have a crunchy not crispy texture. The top os these chips is covered in a redish powder with darker spots (maybe black peper?)

The Flavour: These really have an interesting flavour, sweet like ketchup but with the bitterness of vinegar and a little spicy. I've been told they taste like Doritos...(I don't know, I haven't ate Doritos in a reeeeeeally long time .-.) I like them and they are highly addictive,you can't have juts one.

Rating: 8 out of 10
Overall, pretty good chips, they're one of my favourite chip flavours. I recomend! Pick some up, they're a nice snack.

Mini Jellow Cups

 10º FREAKIN review!! (omg I'm so proud of myself guys, I'm still commited to this blog *.*) To celebrate I went to an asian supermarket a friend of mine told me about (thank you Arthur :3) and got some stuff for the blog and some ramen noodles (if you want me to review the different ramen flavours please leave a comment, I would be happy to do it :3).
So, today I'm bringing you something I found at the supermarket that I used to eat when I was little and I didn't even know it was asian or that it still existed! Mini Jellow Cups!! My mom used to buy these for me and I loved them so much! You don't even know how happy I got when I saw these (I did a happy dance in the middle of the store, not even kidding .-.) So, on with the review!!!

Packaging: The lil babies used to come in a big plastic bag when I was younger, but now they come in a plastic pig with a hat that can latter be used as a money box (how freankin cute is that?) Inside the pig there are several little jellows in plastic containers.

The Jellow cups: The jellies come in several different flavours ( I got green apple, strawberry, mango, pineapple and grape) each one specified on the lid of the jellow cup and identifiable by their colour. The jelly has fruit cubes inside ( not the fruit they taste off, since all the cubes are white, I believe the cubes are lychee, they don't taste like anything, they're just there for texture)

Flavour: The flavour of these is exactly how I remember them. Sooooooo good! Strong fruit flavour, amazing texture, super fun to eat too! I just love them, and not only for nostalgic reasons.


Rating: 10 out of 10 :3
Overall, great treat! Either you had them as a kid or not, just buy them, you'll like them I'm sure!

Cookies 'N Cream Bites

 Review nr. 9! (can't believe I almost made 10 of these :o) This time I found something called Cookie Dough Bites, never eard of something like that before (we aren't even big on cookie dough ice cream here in Portugal) so I picked a box up. These ones are Cookies 'N Cream flavour, which I think is like oreo flavour...? (I don't know guys, it looked yummy, that's all I needed to know to buy it).

Packaging: These come in a blue cardboard box advertising the flavour of the cookie dough bites (it looks like oreos and milk right?). Inside the box there is a clear plastic package with the bites.

The Cookie Dough Bites: The actual cookie bite is a white chocolate or cookie dough (I'm not sure, I even asked for second opinions and nobody knows) ball with pieces of oreo cookie, they're uneven on size and shape, like they're hand roled.

The taste: The white stuff (I'll have to call it that since I don't know what it is...don't start thinking dirty things u.u) has a sweet, vanillay taste and the cookie bits just taste like oreos. The cookie parts are really small though, so the oreo flavour isn't very noticeable. They're pretty sweet though so don't think you'll eat an entire box of these, one or too is enough. On vanilla ice-cream they would probably be good though. Plain, they're not bad but not specially good.

Rating: 5 out of 10
Overall, too sweet for me. Not bad but nothing special, Give it a try if you're curious.

Chocolate covered Marshmallow Egg

 Review nr.8! Hey my lovely readers, today I'm bringing you something slightly different, a treat for children (I'm still a kid inside so it's ok u.u): a chocolate covered marshmallow egg!
This Easter themed sweet comes from South Africa and to me it shows how ridiculous (yet cute) the "chocolate egg myth" is.

Packaging: the eggs come in individual packages which, aside from the white and blue stripes at the bottom, have different colours. The package also shows a picture of a cute bunny next to a chocolate covered egg. Theire slogan, "Let the hunt begin!", is also quite adorable.

The Egg: the egg has a flatenned out oval shape of fluffy white and yellow marshmallow, covered in a thin layer of milk chocolate.

The Taste: The chocolate in these is pretty decent, standard milk chocolate. The texture mix of the crackling chocolate with the marshmallow is not bad at all. However, the marshmallow in there...is absolutely disgusting. Seriously, I like marshmallows, but this are soooooo bad :( they have a wierd taste and an even wierder after taste. Totally don't recomend. Even a real chocolate covered egg wouldn't be this gross!


Rating: 1 out of 10 :(
Overall, just terrible. I took a little bite and I could hardly swallow it. Just don't buy it, for the love of your taste budds.

Mochi: Mango Flavour

 Lucky nr. 7! On my seventh review I'll continue my mochi tasting saga! Last time I tried Melon Mochi and it was pretty good, now it's time for Mango Mochi.

Packaging: This pack of mango mochi (like the melon one) has 3 mochi balls in a plastic tray, covered in clear plastic with orange tips, a drawing of a little mango and something writtens in japanese (still no japanese skills sorry :c)


Appearance: the mochi is a orangy yellow, covered in flower and shaped like a squichy ball. Like the other one, the inside has a white substance that I still haven't figured out what it is (eating unknown substances...not safe kids) and mango jelly.

Taste: as with the melon ones, the rice paste is flavourless and startchy. The jam doesn't taste like real mango though, it tastes like artificial/candy mango, which makes the flavor sweeter and more intense then the melon one. Still, the ratio of jam and rice paste is off.

Rating: 8,3 out of 10
Overall, pretty similar to the melon one but, since the flavour is a bit more intense, I like this ones a little better. If you prefer mango to    melon, pick this ones up and give them a try.
