Disclosure: I received a sample box in exchange for an honest review. All opinions are my own.
I am in the midst of planning a trip to Japan with my family this summer, and I can’t wait! Although we will miss the cherry blossom season, the March Tokyo Treat Sakura Snacktastic box is full of Japanese treats that put us in a Japanese springtime mood.
As you can see, each Tokyo Treat box comes packed a fabulous assortment of unique Japanese snacks. I particularly liked the variety, which included candies, potato chips, cookies, a mini can of soda and package of ramen!
The full color booklet is such a fun read. It contains a detailed description of each snack, including common allergens. This is especially helpful since most of the packaging is in Japanese. The booklet also contains interesting facts and cultural references that both kids and adults would appreciate. Below are some of the snacks that stood out in the March 2024 Tokyo Treat box.
KitKat Matcha Latte
This bag of Matcha Latte KitKats definitely caught my attention. I love that the packaging features cheerful cherry blossoms and cute matcha latte art.
I was impressed/surprised that the package included ten KitKat bars! These would be perfect little surprise to share with friends.
My family and I have been into matcha lattes/green tea anything recently, so these KitKats were an instant hit. The matcha flavor + creaminess + crispy wafer are the perfect combination.
Pai no Mi Mini Pies Pear Tart
I am not sure what association squirrels have with pears, but they are a cute addition to the packaging of these mini pies. The crust is airy and delicate, and the filling is lightly sweet.
Again, I like how there is enough product to share with others. These morsels would be delicious accompanied by a hot cup of tea.
Mitsuya Cider
I have never heard of Mitsuya Soda, but according to the can it has been around since 1884? It has a sweet carbonated flavor, but I cannot describe it any more than that. The mini can is just too cute. I am sure my son is looking forward to all of the vending machine drinks when we go to Japan!
Pure Potato Honey Butter & Rock Salt
For those with a more salty tooth, these potato chips will satisfy your cravings. These chips have a natural potato taste that is missing in many of the chips we have here. The honey butter flavor is not overpowering. I can imagine bringing these chips on a picnic.
Sakura Mini Cookies
