 Thanks for checking out this unboxing video. This is the April Snaku and Sorry, I've kind of waited a little bit. I've actually had this for Not quite a week Actually, maybe about a week around I've just been busy can't get to things also I'm recording in my bathroom because I'm having some lighting issues elsewhere that I wasn't having before so Let me know in the comments if this is too distracting and too much of a problem But actually honestly, this is probably the best lighting I can get in my house when I actually look at it Which you know, I guess I could go out and like buy some professional equipment, but It's a lot of a lot of Lotta, you know mula and I don't know quite have the views for something like that But anyway excited to get to this April Snaku always a fan always down to try new food like any food really So yeah, and as people will notice as I open it up Always like a nice wrapping in there This is cherry blossoms because if people know April was the time for cherry blossoms blooming in Washington DC, which my wife really wanted to go to we didn't really get a chance But There you go It's their little card with all the information on the food And then there's the food, but I'll tell you about it as we go And let's open it up and I think I think I figured out From the last the last box I think I figured out that they have on this card They have on this side like the ones I believe what it is is they have this one They say these are popular snacks and then this one is the featured snacks over here So I think these are the ones for the actual month of April and these are ones that are popular snacks Which I actually think are kind of like leftovers that they have from a previous month or the last few previous months or whatever Which is fine. You know, there's no problem with that I just think I figured that out because I had seen these All these available for sale on their website, but that's fine. I mean, I'm always down to try stuff. So All right, so the first thing I'm actually just gonna do this One by one and then I have some water over there and a plate to put the rest on because as we know I don't eat if you've watched any of these before I don't eat the whole thing. I save half for my wife So the first thing is I'm not gonna know exactly what it is until I actually open it up and can match the picture Because unfortunately, I don't know Japanese I go It's very flat so I think it's Sure, oh It's like a shortbread cookie is kind of what it looks like Okay, so this is the satsuma stable. This is what it's called Yeah, it looks like an almond shortbread cookie basically it's like half moon so it says Fuket Sato Fuket Sato has been making these delicate butter cookies since 1919. That's a long time Using only the highest quality local ingredients found in Kyushu This cookie won the 2008 Japan confectionary competition. I didn't know there was a Japan confectionary competition. So See the almond right there It smells really good. So buttery vanillae almani It's got a nice Crunch to it Very nice for texture It's very crispy. It's got a really nice kind of like Roasted flavor to it, you know, like toasted almond kind of Which is really nice actually That's really good almond vanilla butter Not toasty. No, that's really tasty Let's set the rest over there. That's really good It's it's a very like simple snack that I know there are examples of that that type of snack in the United States too, but It's tasty and that's what I care about am I getting tasty stuff in this box, which by the way if I Haven't said it enough in the past episodes or if you are this is the first one you're checking out of me unboxing a Snaku They keep it affordable for these I have the tasting box you can go much larger and pay more but the tasting box Which is just a little bit of everything $15.75 that's including shipping. That's including tax. That's everything So to try new things each month very very affordable and cleanse my palate. I was really tasty The next thing is by Colby These also look like some small cookies. I know some people might want to see the back Oh, these are okay. So these are ones that I believe were left over from Before I believe these are chips But I'll open them up just to be a hundred percent on that Yeah, okay, so It's look interesting So they're like kind of kettle-style chips. They look really dark. They still have the skin on them So I believe they're most likely going to be Sweet potato chips because of the coloration. They're very orange So these are Asu Osatsu potato, sorry, Osatsu potato Kagoshima is famous for producing some of Japan's sweetest and most flavorful sweet potatoes. There you go Enjoy these regional limited edition chips made with organically grown sweet potatoes from the rich volcanic soil of Kagoshima Yes, this was from last month from the March one because that was Kagoshima as the region they were focusing on so Doesn't smell like it's gonna be salty. No, it's not very salty. It's actually very sweet Tastes like sweet potato very very crunchy. It's kind of like Banana chips if people if you've ever had banana chips before they have like this Extra starchy-ness to them and an extra sweetness to them. So it's kind of like banana chips, but sweet potato Very very crunchy If you like sweet potatoes You'll probably like this But it is like straight sweet potato flavor. There's like no salt to it or anything It's just crispy and Sweet sweet potato. I actually think my wife is really gonna like these honestly. She's a big sweet potato fan Not I'm personally not huge on it. They're fine and for what they're going for good, but Stop my thing I'll save the rest for my wife though Next thing which I have two of these is I don't know what this one is Okay So it looks like it's Kanako senpai most likely. Let me get close enough here Kanako senpai Let me let me take it out just to be sure Yes, okay That's exactly what it is. There you go Kanako senpai I mean it kind of looks like a rice cake, but not as But like much more pulverized people have had American rice cakes before so the Kanako senpai S-delicate rice crackers. Oh I think that was a typo. There's an S before delicate delicate rice crackers covered in a soft savory yet Sweet roasted Kanako soy powder. Oh a taste of rural Japan and every bite, okay, it smells Kind of sweet actually. Oh There is a coating on the outside so It's It is like a rice cake It's what it tastes like like it's very like light and airy like a rice cake and you can just like go right through It's kind of brittle The powder on the outside actually kind of tastes like cinnamony kind of like a cinnamon toast crunch cereal a little bit, but it's really light almost because of how light and airy it is and How the the powder on the outside kind of disintegrates in your mouth? It kind of feels like the whole thing when you're chewing it just like melts in your mouth Which is good Yeah, legitimately that tastes like freaking cinnamon toast crunch Yeah, nice and cinnamon-y That's good. That's tasty like a nice like light dessert, maybe Or snack. It's good Like that one Next, we have two of these. I guess I'll do Okay, these are leaf pies. They're soft crispy biscuits Filled with rich Kagoshima potato filling So we have two different ones. I believe ones like golden potatoes and ones purple potato so I guess I'll do both of them Well, I'll start with the first one to see how it goes So the first one which would be the purple potato You can see how you can even see where that's gonna be you can see it in there Because there's a darker coloration to it It's not that thick Yeah, kind of thick. There's like a sugar coating. It smells fried. I'm making a map. Oh, man Yeah, I don't think I'm gonna open the other one right now Let's set that down for now Wow, this is like a like a light fluffy pastry. Can you see like how there's layers in there? like Damn, I'm trying to think of like something comparable that is also a baked good. Oh, yeah, these crumbs over here So I got to the potato I'm not really Getting a lot from the actual potato I mainly just kind of like get like the sugar flavor on from the sugar on the outside and not like really nice like buttery Pastry flavor From the outside of it There's just like a little bit of a starchiness from the potato But there's not a whole lot going on with the actual potato itself. So Here's that layer. That's good. I do like it like it's sugary. It's buttery Like I said, the potato doesn't do like much of anything it just Yeah, it's really nice. That's really nice. It's like very delicate very light tasty Be like an easy dessert or snack if you wanted something like that Okay, next we got two of these I'm gonna have to open a Satsuma choco cookie. I don't even know if that's on here I don't think it's on this. So we might be off the grid with this one I have two of them. I'll put one down Satsuma choco cookie Yeah, I don't believe. No, it's not on the little key that was that and that's that's cool Like you don't have to put everything on. Oh, no, it is it is So on here, it says Satsuma cookie Choco cookie but on the key here it has it as Sakura cookie, which I think Sakura is like cherry blossom I might be wrong correct me if I'm wrong. So you can see there's it's kind of like a white chocolate I guess that's been turned pink if you can kind of see the pink Hopefully I can color correct this with like some chopped nuts on it. It's like very thin Kind of actually looks like a cracker or like a multi-grain cracker So simple light lung lung gay to shot butter cookie. That's a cookie topped with cherry blossom white chocolate So, yeah Does smell floral so Just tastes like white chocolate mainly a little bit of that butter cookie coming through Don't really taste the nuts in there And I do get a little bit of that kind of like cherry blossom flower So comes off a tad bit perfumey, but for me, it's actually not that bad. It almost comes off a tad bit berry like like a really like light kind of cherry Berry like super super light though, you know what usually I'm like Things that make food like flowery like I hate anything with lavender in it Or anything that makes it flowery, but that That's not too much. It's just like the subtlest little bit And it's actually pretty good. I like that. That's good. That's good. I like that All right Valiculants yes Kobe Fugetsudo I'll open this one to make sure what it actually is. I Think there's like a few Yeah, it feels like there's a few like really thin cookies in there Trying to open this so I don't make like crazy mess. Okay, so these kind of look like The construction is kind of like the the wafers of that are covered in caramel for like the Stroop waffles, I guess is what they're called. Yeah, just like Very very thin wafer and you can see there's some sort of filling in there, which it's so hard to see. I Can't even see the coloration of that Because it's so hard to see. So this is Sakura Gouffre Airy wheat wafer filled with Sakura cream So like a cherry blossom flavor cream the perfect snack to enjoy while watching the cherry blossoms So well, I'm doing it too late for that, but super light Airy like it said Yeah, I get a little bit of That kind of like floral note actually a lot more of a fruitiness in this one versus the last one That actually comes off like cherry like actual cherry in there Once again, a really nice easy light snack You can better see the cream in there now Which obviously the cream is what gives it almost all the flavor really and the outside of the wafer Like I don't really get anything from the wafer except just the crunch Which is fine because it's a textural thing like I like to have good texture when I'm eating stuff But all the flavors coming from that filling the feeling is really good like like I said like the slice a little bit of floral and A decent amount of like an actual cherry. I taste good. I like that. That's really tasty I like that quite a bit All right See this one for last. So this one Now this one will probably have to be for less. So actually I'm not gonna do this This is just kind of an extra. I did this on one of the other Unboxing so go back and look. I think it was the very first one. I did was February. Yeah, and so this is just like a strawberry Like a milk and strawberry hard candy basically that has like a filling to it Really tasty. I did it on that one if you want to see it. So I'm not gonna do it right now It's just an extra Actually, I'll do that one last and then this is the big one. This one is the Boucher Cherry blossom See Kobe Boushi So I guess it's made in Kobe you can see all the cherry blossoms on there Yeah, and it says masterpiece of sweets flavor born in Kobe So the card says Kobe Fukutsudo is one of the most famous premium Japanese snack makers And has been making Japanese snacks for over 120 years in the Cosmopolitan City of Kobe It's a long time these bouchis are made with pillowy Sakura infused puff pastry sandwiching There needs to be some punctuation in there But I'll reread that these bouchis are made with pillowy Sakura infused puff pastry Sandwiching a Sakura and apple cream filling Sounds good. The snack maker describes these bouchis buns as quote a masterpiece of sweets Flavor born in Kobe. We couldn't agree more. Well, I mean This thing's like big Oh, they have one of these like silica packets in there to keep it fresh keep moisture out. Oh my gosh Yes, like I can already like look at this. So it looks like like Whoopie pie or moon pie as some people would call it in the United States I can already feel like I'm not putting a whole lot of pressure on this But I can already feel my fingers kind of sinking into it. It is very soft. It is very pillowy to the touch Yeah, I Can smell I can actually smell the apple coming out But I can smell that cherry blossom like the little bit of a floral note with that actual like kind of cherry Smells good very sweet. Oh man is so soft like Look at this You see like my teeth just cut right through. It's like no effort Whatsoever I can taste that apple in there. I like this. This is good As my computer decides to do weird stuff hmm Yeah So the cream is is kind of like buttery. It's like it comes off as kind of like a butter cream type cream in there and the um Yeah, I get a little bit of that kind of cherry note a little bit of that floral I get a decent amount of the apple actually Actually not as much as I would think because I would think that apples even Typically, it's a flavor that kind of like asserts itself even more But in this case, it's a little more rained in which I'm good with because you want that the cherry blossom flavor to kind of shine through but um Yeah, super super pillowy super soft pretty good No, let's go All right, so Overall, excuse me pick this up very very happy with this. I have the one thing left. That's Cider candy. Okay. Interesting. This is an extra one So just kind of recap you can just take a look and then I'll do this final one So looking at it and point out what my favorites were Uh These not so much my wife will really love those. These were really tasty, but I can get stuff similar in the united states This also pretty tasty, but you know, I can just eat like You know cinnamon toast crunch These were quite good. I love like that flaky pastry on the outside Don't really taste much of the actual uh sweet potato But I really like that flaky pastry on there. These are pretty solid. They're like nice buttery These are decent as well and these are really good. Um, I think my favorite Uh, actually the leaf pies just because I love that like flaky buttery pastry taste. So I don't know All right, so I'm gonna try this I might just lick it a few times because it's Feels like it's a hard candy. It's it's cider candy. So I guess apple would be my guess And cannot read any of that but let me take a drink Okay, open up this cider candy. Oh wow, that's interesting welcome So it's blue. It's like a like a light baby blue Yeah, and it's just like a hard candy actually tastes like soda actually tastes a lot to me like, um Sprite Or like seven up Yeah, yeah, it's got the lemon lime It's interesting that it's called cider candy. Um Yeah, it's lemon lime like it tastes like sprite or soda very bright Yeah, just super vibrant vibrant flavor That's good. I really like that I could um since that was like an extra I could be very happy if we get that as an extra again in the future But I know it's kind of gross but like since I had it in my mouth I'm just sending it over there and then just gonna one of my wife gets home be like here Lick this a few times so you can get a taste of it.
