Nuii ice cream bars

Australian macadmia and salted caramel / coconut Indian mango.
Loved the crackling chocolate coating.
Nordic berry was my favourite.




M&S new sushi range reviewed

Marks and Spencers have done it again, this time with sushi featuring the trending onigiri.
Some which you can see working like the Caesar.
I got the Tuna Onigiri, sriracha prawn taco, chicken caesar dragon roll and Bang Bang surimi burrito.
The damage £15.35.
Starting with the best was the caesar chicken which obviously works.
Savoury chicken and cheesy sauce with sushi rice.
Onigiri spicy tuna.
It was quite exciting to see M&S have this but the filling is your bog standard spicy tuna, not as exciting as caesar chicken.
It would have been nice for something savoury like the new ginsters marmite beef filling.
The burrito and taco were similar, both had pickled cabbage.
The surimi burrito was the least favourite because it was mainly pickled that you barely taste or see the surimi which is quite bland originally flavoured by flavourings like tofu.
Overall I recommend the Caesar chicken.


Japanese Muji fried radish chips

Colourful and crispy.
Made in China with Japanese Radish from China.
You get the same disappointing taste that is sweet with all Asian savoury snacks.


Tanpopo Japanese food to go

This brand has been around for years.
Finally tried their onigiri last year bought from a uni canteen but never posted it.
Then yesterday bf got me a salmon and dill one from Amazon fresh so I decided to write it up.
Overall, love onigiri and the texture of the rice was soft and sticky how it should be.
Both on the sweet side though but clearly salmon and dill works as this other onigiri joint in Shepherds bush has this too.




NEW Kitkat hazelnut sharing bar

Very tasty.
Loved the hazelnut paste.
This was free from the KitKat Blockbusters pop up.


The real seafood co crayfish tails

Unfortunately these were bitter.



Frost bites cafe Latte [freeze dried snacks] bought at £3.99

Spotted these and had to try them; they have other options like ice cream and fruit, but I opted for the latte since I'd already tried freeze dried ice cream.
The texture was similar to freeze-dried ice cream, and while it was nice, the taste was akin to coffee creamer powder with a bitter coffee flavor.
Despite this, the concept works, and I'd love to see other flavors like Earl Grey tea, Thai milk tea, or matcha. The packaging claims they're viral on social media, but I couldn't find much about them.
At £3.99, they were on the pricier side considering the content.
