You-ka Maccha Tiramisu Chocolate

These maccha covered almonds reminded of Meiji's and Lottes' chocolate covered almonds.

They come in a resealable bag, all individually wrapped.

There are about 10 inside.

When you unwrap them, it looks like it has been dusted with green tea powder.

It tastes like pistachio initially and then the taste is very buttery and creamy.

7-Eleven Korean and Japanese crossover

Hong Kong’s 7-Eleven Convenience Stores have launched a series of Korean and Japanese ready to eat snacks from March 13, 2013.

These include curry beef with rice, Grilled pork with ginger, oden, pork wontons, Japanese style chicken wings, miso soup, yuzu tea, cold noodles in sesame sauce/wasabi sauce and much more.

The main feature of this event was their ready to eat onsen egg and Hokkaido yeast bun which comes in five flavours: chocolate, coffee, pumpkin, original and cheese.
The onsen egg is the perfect poached egg with a guaranteed runny yolk centre that you just crack open and eat, so when your at 7-Eleven having a noodle, why not crack an onsen egg onto it.
The egg is pasteurized which makes it Salmonella free!

To illustrate how these products can be eaten, they have invited Hong Kong’s Truffle Queen Esther Au to demonstrate how these products can be made even more delectable with truffle held at Donna Dolce cooking studio.

As bloggers we were given first hand experience making pasta for the carbonara dish and we were privileged to try freshly shaved truffle from these huge winter truffles!

There were also other Japanese Korean snacks for us to try which are currently being promoted.

Hokkaido yeast bun with asparagus, Onsen Egg, Truffled Hollandaise sauce, Mangalica Ham and Shaved Black Truffles:

I have tried this yeast bun before and this time it tasted even better because it was toasted which removed the alcoholic vapour in it that was used as preservation.
The onsen egg, asparagus and ham tasted really nice together along with the freshly grated black truffle.
★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★
Tagliolini Carbonara with Egg Yolks, Pancetta, Cheese & Black Pepper:

Again this was such a delicious dish and the texture of the pasta was slightly foamy and springier because it was freshly made.

7-Eleven Korean and Japanese foods:

Yummy snacks that do not seem to taste like instant meals.

Thanks to 7-Eleven for organizing this event and their generous gifts.

Ribon Mini Assorted doughnuts

Got these mini donuts because the box was cute and the size of these donuts are small.

Inside the box, each doughnut is individually wrapped.

There are two flavours: chocolate and original.

The chocolate one tastes nicer and the plain one tastes too sweet.
They were slightly too oily as well.

Limited edition Pink Lemonade Lucozade

Launched in late 2012, this limited edition pink lemonade Lucozade bottle is pink with a silver cap.

The pink lemonade inside is quite sweet but does not taste strong of Lemon.

Melty Kiss Whips Caramel

They tasted the same as the ordinary Melty Kiss but they were not dusted in chocolate.

The caramel was strong and the texture was really velvety, smooth and melts in your mouth.
The smell of caramel is so strong that when you open the wrapper you can smell it instantly.

In the middle, there is some caramel filling which you can visually see.

Other flavours in this range:

Melty Kiss Whips Matcha Tea

GOLDKENN Finest Swiss liquor chocolate

The packaging for these Goldkenn liquor filled chocolates were quite nice.
It comes in three flavours: Whisky, Grand Marnier and Remy Martin.

Personally I liked the Whisky and Grand Marnier.

The chocolate bar has ridges so it is easy to break up.

The only thing I did not like was the formation of sugar crystals in the chocolate and the taste of the chocolate was not very impressive.

Tokuno 8.2 Rum Raisin Flavoured Milk Candy

These sweets had a strong milk and creamy taste, however the taste of Rum was extremely light.

The packaging of the sweets was quite nice, it is a slim sliding tray.

Tao Ti Aloe Vera Hami Melon Drink

Tried Tao Ti's new drink which was Hami Melon with aloe vera.
Hami Melon was my favourite and hopefully I will try the strawberry one too.

The taste was quite natrual with pieces of aloe vera but it is advised to finish it in one go because it does not taste nice after it has been refridgerated.

In this new range, they also have strawberry, green grapes and peach.
