Kitkat Sakura matcha (Japan)

The Kitkat Sakura matcha comes in a box and inside there are three packs of two fingers.
They were not too sweet but the matcha was not strong and I couldn't taste the sakura.






Nestle purple potato kitkat (Japan)

Japanese Nestle purple potato kitkat.
Very sugary like white chocolate and the purple potato tasted a bit like playdoh.




Nestle cookies & cream kitkat

Australian Cookies & Cream kitkat.
Quite sugary.




Nestle Kitkat icecream

The new #kitkat icecream cone is basically an #icecream with a kitkat stabbed in!

Beehive shaved seasoned ham

Tried the Beehive shaved seasoned ham with basil, oregano and rosemary.

The ham was juicy, flavourful and tender without being too salty but the only weakness was that I could not taste any of the herbs.

I liked the easy peel portion control packs which allow one portion to be opened and consumed while the other pack can be put in the fridge.



Other options in the shaved meat range:
Honey Baked (100g and 175g), Champagne (100g & 175g), Chicken Breast (100g & 175g) and Milano Salami (90g).

Taramosalata by Orexis fresh foods limited

I love Taramasalata which is a Greek dip made with marinated cod roe blended with breadcrumbs, oil and flavoured onion.


The Taramosalata by Orexis was quite good, it wasn't too salty or fishy which was great with the pita bread.


teapigs birthday blend - jelly and ice cream

teapigs is a famous brand of artisan tea in the UK.
They are now all over the world.
I encountered them a few years ago when they had a stall at the Island East Markets and now you can find them all over Hong Kong and available at most restaurants and cafes.

Time flies and it is now their 10th birthday.

Thank you tea pigs for this lovely box which had the birthday blend and a glass cup and saucer to go with it.


I loved the packaging because it was colourful and the graphics are well designed like their other teas. This is what makes them memorable and outstanding.

On the back of the pack, there is a special message from Louise which I couldn't agree more especially memories of Woolworths pic'n'mix.
Sadly it doesn't exist anymore and lots of sweets and crisps have become extinct and many traditional British meals and desserts are rapidly disappearing or being modernized :(

Anyway, lets get back to the tea.
jelly and ice cream blend is the best way to celebrate because it is fun and everyone likes it.

The ingredients in this tea are: apple, blueberry, orange peel, liquorice root, citric acid, strawberry pieces, vanilla pieces, natural vanilla flavouring, raspberry flavouring, natural cream flavouring, natural biscuit flavouring.

When I took the tea temples out, there was a lovely sweet berries and cream smell and the tea has a pretty pink colour to it with a fine tart taste to it.
