Cinnamon Melts

Delicious cinnamon-spiced rolls, topped with yummy cream-cheese icing.

St Honore's bolognaise puff?

In general the bakery at St Honore tastes OK. The bakery is quite westernized.

Saw this poster for the winter series which features a puff pastry, in Chinese the direct translation is Herbs and tomato meat sauce puff.

I wonder if they mean puff pasty with bolognaise sauce in it.

I think I am going to try it.





Morinaga mash

Got this because of the packaging and the misleading translation which stated it had marshmallow inside.
The website for this brand is http://www.morinaga.co.jp/index.html which suprisingly has English, however the English site is not really up to date.

Anyway, the name mash reminds of mashed potatoes which totally cannot be related to chocolates.

Overall it tasted too sweet.



Jacob's Fig Rolls

The fig roll is one of my favourite biscuits filled with preserved figs inside.

As well as the fig roll, Jacab's have a nice marshmallow range too, especially the Mikado with jam in the centre and marshmallows on the side sprinkled with dessicated coconut.

Kimberley
Jacob's Kimberley comprises of two circular ginger based biscuits that sandwich a thick layer of white creamy vanilla mallow doused in sugar. First launched by Jacob's in 1893, Kimberley remains a firm Irish favourite. The distinctive name was borne out of the Kipling African adventures. The importance of Jacob's Kimberley to Irish culture and the affection in which it is held cannot be underestimated and is reflected in its loving longevity in the Irish market place.

Mikado
Mikado dates back to 1888 and like Kimberley, Mikado is a combination of mallow and biscuit. However the flavour variants and design are characteristic of what is the most unique looking of the three biscuits in the mallow family. Mikado is created by inserting ten deposits of mallow atop a vanilla based biscuit with a strip of raspberry flavoured jam, all coated with a coconut sprinkle.

Coconut Creams
Coconut Creams, launched back in 1890 and originally spelt "Cocoanut Creams" is a unique biscuit with an identity of its own. Featuring two variants in a pack, pink and white, the base of the Coconut Creams is circular in shape and is decorated with a large deposit of mallow doused in coconut sprinkles.
All three Mallows products are unique and have their own individual character yet complete a much-loved family of brands.

Malted milk biscuits

Malted milk biscuits are named after their malt flavouring and milk content.
The cow imprinted on the biscuit distinguishes these biscuits as malted milk.
There are three main variations of the design but with so many brands there will be a slight difference.
The main designs are:
Two milk churns and a cow
A cow and a gate
A cow and a smaller cow
Other modified malted milk biscuit include chocolate covered single biscuit and custard creams.

sasatinnie Boysenberry Yoghurt with vitamins

Fruity Yoghurt BonBon (peach+collagen)

Fruity Yoghurt Bonbon (Boysenberry and Vitamins)

Confectionary made by a cosmetic brand SASA, but unfortunately it tasted too sweet despite being sugar free. It tasted of saccharin with a hint of fake berry.
