TokyoTreat & Sakuraco create monthly snack boxes to let you experience Japan from the comfort of your own home with seasonal and limited edition snacks and drinks. We’ve teamed up with them to show you what’s inside so here’s a look at the current boxes which are available now. They’re perfect for sharing and gifting this Christmas and look out for a special discount and Black Friday offers below!
TokyoTreat – Very Merry Snackmas
Imagine waking up on Christmas morning and unwrapping TokyoTreat’s fun and exclusive snack box filled with Japanese treats for the holidays. They’d also be perfect for pulling out of a stocking or an advent calendar, or to fill everyone with festive cheer at your Christmas party. There are 14 different sweet and savoury items, including a full size bag of KitKats, drink and instant noodles, plus a colour booklet. 6 items aren’t suitable for vegetarians.
Emma’s Favourites
- Fudgy Festive Choco Pie – rich, fudgy, and the perfect sweet treat for when you crave something chocolatey.
- Ghana Holiday Truffles – dark and delicious smooth ganache perfectly contrasted with a crunchy biscuit centre.
- Caramel Corn Puffs – I love the mix of salty and sweet and the combination of caramel popcorn-style corn puffs and peanuts really work well together.
- Sesame Crackers – slightly sweet crackers with a sesame flavour are the perfect match to an evening drink.
- Yakisoba – super easy to make and the ‘sauce’ has a slight smoky flavour, so it’s reminiscent of the taste you get when it’s been made fresh on a teppan grill. I topped mine with roast pork and spring onion.
Sakuraco – Holidays in Hokkaido
Experience the tastes of Winter in Japan with a Sakuraco subscription box celebrating the warmth and essence of snowy Hokkaido. It’s perfect for sharing and gifting this holiday season with locally made, traditional, authentic, and artisan Japanese snacks. This month’s box includes 13 different food items including full size bags and extras of some snacks, plus 2 Hokkaido Genmaicha tea bags. The exclusive homeware piece is an elegant Shonzui flower dish. 3 items are not vegetarian (all are senbei).
Marceline’s Favourites
- Hokkaido Milk Manju – a whole bag of soft little cakes made with condensed milk and filled with a sweet white bean paste.
- Hokkaido Melon Cookies – crisp and crumbly cookies with a subtle and non-artificial melon flavour.
- Mt Fuji Senbei – individually hand-baked rice cracker with sugar icing ‘snow’ for a pretty salty-sweet treat.
- Honey Apple Mochi – lovely soft and chewy mochi with sweet honey and apple flavours.
- Hokkaido Milk Danish – soft and fluffy pastry made with Hokkaido milk that’s even better toasted.
