My Thoughts:


I'm not only a huge candy and snack lover, but I adore Japanese culture. It's always been a dream of mine to visit Japan. Getting the opportunity to savor their treats makes me feel as if I'm fulfilling a long time goal! With Japan Candy Box, you can enjoy a monthly delivery of goodies for you and your loved ones to enjoy. This month, Japan Candy Box took a fun Halloween twist and I can't wait to share the fun with you.


Lotte Toppo Halloween Cookie Sticks-
These were one of my favorite goodies in the box. The cookie sticks are filled with yummy milk chocolate all the way through. The cookie has a nice crispy bite and are lightly flavor which highly compliments the chocolate.


Skeleton Ramune Candy-
This was such a cute addition to the box. The bone pieces have small holes that can be put together to make a skeleton shape. The candy was just as good too. Nice and sweet.


Coris Mizuame DIY Flavor Change Candy-
This was such a fun candy to get in the box. I love DIY projects and this fantastic. The pack comes with three flavored liquid candies in strawberry, soda, and lemon. There is a mixer and a plastic pack as well for holding them. All three flavors were awesome and even better together!


Halloween Caramel Corn-
Tohato has created these soft crisp snacks since 1971. This months flavor was pumpkin pudding in honor of Halloween. I adored these! They had a sweet and salty flavor from the corn puff.


Koala's March Cookies Halloween Edition-
As a chocolate and cookie lover, this was my other favorite treat in the Japan Candy Box. Not only were the Koala's absolutely adorable, but the chocolate filling in the crunchy cookie was nice and smooth. Plus, how nice is the packaging? Very Kawaii!


Halloween Sweet Candy-
This traditional brown sugar snack was so unique. I've never had anything quite like it. The inside texture was fluffy and soft. The outside had the brown sugar that complimented the interesting bite. Overall, an awesome experience!


Halloween Umaibo Snack Stick-
The Umaibo Snack Stick was a great addition to this box to change up the sweet Halloween candies with something savory. This treat was flavored after authentic Japanese corn potage soup. Though I've yet to try that myself, I'd love to have a bowl now. This snack was delicious!


Marukawa Witch Mystery Gum-
This was a really exciting treat to experiment with. The gum has mystery flavors inside and by combining the five flavors, the taste will disappear. It certainly did! Each gum was chewy and bursting with flavor.


Marukawa Witch Color Change Gum-
This awesome gum will change your tongue to red or black when you chew it. It was so exciting to watch. My younger brother enjoyed seeing what would happen. Plus, the cola flavor was fantastic too.



Monster Stamp Candy-
These Monster Stamp Candies were one of the most creative treats I've ever seen. When you lick the colorful shape, it allows you to use them like traditional art stampers. So fun! Plus, they were yummy to eat too!

In conclusion, I could not get enough of the Japan Candy Box. I highly recommend it for children and families alike. Whether you want to treat yourself or enjoy with others, this is the perfect gift to look forward to. Thank you Japan Candy Box for letting me experience the fun.

Included is a guide that explains each treat for the buyer so they can explore the history and unique flavors before taking a bite. Ready to see what April's box had in store? Read on with me!



Don Tacos Grilled Corn Flavor-
Oh do I love tacos! These chips were so savory. There was a dash of salt and a hint of sweetness from the butter and soy sauce mix on the crispy corn chips. One of my favorite toppings is soy sauce so this was perfection. Yum!



Caramel Corn Share Pack-
Sweet, soft, with just a hint of crunch. These Caramel Corn snacks reminded me of the type of texture you'd expect from corn cakes almost. The pack of four makes these wonderful to share with friends. With the flavor not being too overpowering, these were wonderful to curve a sweet craving.



Calbee Plum Seaweed Chips-
I'll admit I was nervous about this one. I’ve never had any type of seaweed before. I was pleasantly surprised, however! The chips had a traditional crispy texture along with a nice thickness to the consistency. There was a good bite of flavor to it that you would expect from an underwater delight. A nice mix of salt too makes these a good match for a seafood aficionado.



Umaiwa Cheese-
Umaiwa Cheese are adorable circular snacks for my cheese lovers out there! They have the perfect corn puff texture and the flavor of the cheese is a little sharp and yet a little sweet. Just like cheese fondue. It reminded me a lot of the onion ring snacks that we have here in America. I would highly recommend them!




Choco Banana DIY Kit-
A good DYI kit never disappoints and these were so much fun to make! Such an enjoyable kit for children and family alike. Included is the chewy banana treat, chocolate cream, as well as a colorful topping to put into the plastic container. To avoid mess there is even a toothpick included to insert your treat into. The Choco Banana texture is soft and chewy. The chocolate has a rich and decadent flavor while the topping as a hint more sweetness to the mix.



Umaibo Teriyaki Burger-
The Unaibo Teriyaky Burger is shaped so uniquely! I really loved the large size along with the light and airy texture. The flavor is extremely savory! There’s no doubt that you are enjoying a teriyaki treat as if you were really in Japan!



Gudetama Candy-
These cute candies melt in your mouth for you to enjoy! Inside is a hidden orange sauce that adds perfectly to the yogurt flavored sweet candy. The sweetness wasn’t too overpowering and was well balanced with the orange sauce. Plus who wouldn’t love the adorable Gudetama faces on the wrappers?



Pakkuncho Disney Custard Pudding Biscuits-
I'm a huge Disney fan and the Pakkuncho Custard Biscuits wear one of my favorites in this month's box! The fun Disney packaging mixed with the airy crunch of the basket was delicious! The custard pudding was like an added bonus. It was rich and flavorful just like a bakery dessert.



Colorful Seeds Soft Candy-
Welcome to flavor paradise with the Colorful Seeds Soft Candy! They reminded me a lot of jellybeans. The flavors include grape, orange, and ramune. With a pang of taste it makes it even more fun to mix and match flavors. A little sweet with a little tart is the ideal experience! The bag has a nice Ziploc on it as well.



Healthy Snacking Squishy Lemon Gummies-
If you love lemon these are perfect for you! The Lemon Gummies have a thick texture and a powerful zing. They are a bit hard to chew so I would recommend letting them melt in your mouth.



Kyoro-chan's Custard Pudding Snack-
There are three unique textures to these snacks. One is the soft outside layer of white chocolate. Upon biting deeper into the egg shaped treat, you get a dash of crunch almost like a biscuit or cookie. Lastly comes the sweetest of the pudding inside as well. Another favorite of mine from TokyoTreat! 



Easter Banana Kit Kats-
I'm a huge fan of traditional Kit Kat Bars. My entire household loves them. I was excited to get the opportunity to try a new flavor! They reminded me a lot of banana pudding with wafer cookies, one my favorite desserts! The taste of the banana seemed very realistic, unlike many banana flavored treats on the market. Within the Kit Kat is everyone's favorite light crispy wafer and that was the perfect addition. 



Baby Bear Gummies-
I'm a sucker for anything cute (or Kawaii since we're discussing Tokyo, Japan) and these Baby Bear Gummies were just that. The design was absolutely adorable. The flavors of the treat is what you'd expect from a gummy bear. Since these are my little brother's favorite, I gladly shared with him!



Afternoon Tea White Chocolate Milk Tea-
The perfect way to finish off the TokyoTreat experience is with a delicious drink! This White Chocolate Milk Tea is perfect to share with your loved ones or enjoy solo with any of the included snacks in your box. The flavors were quite rich and smooth. I'm a huge tea fan and was pleasantly surprised how much I enjoyed this beverage! The bottle design itself was also very unique, sculptured to look like a real piece of white chocolate.

Our Thoughts

When you switch to eating a cleaner diet, most of the stuff you once enjoyed are off the table. Candy, cereals, frozen foods, and more are usually not an option when you make the Organic switch. There are some companies who are offering alternatives, though, and Go Organic is one of them. 

I had the opportunity to try a variety of candies from the company, including gummy, chewy, and hard candy. I have to say that I was overall happy with what I received. The hard candies had plenty of flavor (in fact, sometimes it was a bit much and I had to limit it to a piece or two), and the gummy candies were good as well. In fact, I think I overall liked those better.

Of the different varieties of the hard candy, I would say the blood orange and honey lemon were the best. They had a nice flavor, melted nicely in my mouth, and were actually pretty soothing for my throat. I sing a lot, so it tends to get really scratchy here and there. Eating one of the hard candies helped to keep that under control. 



The gummy candies were really good as well, but the chewy ginger candy was my favorite. It had a rich taste that kind of reminded my husband and I of tootsie rolls. I'd say these are a really good bet if you're craving something sweet, but don't want the extra ingredients that the majority of candy has.
