52 Japanese Candy and Snack Okashi Set with original Japanese Candy Ninja sticker

I've bought a few different dagashi/okashi boxes before, and this is the best one so far. Mine came with two of the Popin Cookin style boxes, two kit-kats, and a few treats that are familiar to these Japanese snack boxes, plus a lot I had never seen before. You get a fantastic variety, with both sweet and savoury. A lot of flavours will be kind of weird, particularly the savoury ones, but even more will be delicious and enjoyable. Some highlights were: -Almond flavoured chewing gum -Melty powdery sweets that almost feel fuzzy in your mouth -The "lipstick lollipop candy" that totally looks like a tampon -a melon flavoured biscuit -SWEETS THAT WERE ALSO STAMPS??? You lick it and then stamp it down. Edible in name only, but extremely fun. I stamped them on the delivery slip. I now have a sticky red pumpkin on my delivery slip. I loved it. 10/10. -a lightly fish flavoured jerky type thing? I think it's nori/seaweed -a completely unidentifiable rice??? thing??? I have no idea. It came in a fun triangle packet. Some were fishy, some were a little spicy, and some just had herbs on them. It does not come with a guide, you will have to either jump into the depths of the unknown or get busy translating it for yourself. A pro-tip, the Google Translate app allows you to take pictures and it'll use OCR to help you. I found that I had to use the handwriting function on that as well. Honestly, it's pretty fun not knowing. It does take a while to arrive. I ordered mine on the 13th of March, and it arrived on the 4th of April. Just remember that it's travelling a long way, and is definitely worth the wait. I will definitely be looking to this specific product next time I fancy some Japanese snacks, as this was the best one.

This is the second time I've ordered one of these boxes and I think they're fab! For someone that's wanting to see what a Japanese snack and sweet experience is like without having to have a subscription box I would say that these are great for exactly that. You get a decent selection of items and on both occasions I've had one of the Kracie Popin' Cookin' kits (tip: you might have to look up the instructions for these on line because the boxes don't come with an English instructions translation) and on a piece-by-piece basis there's often one or two items more than the given number (I had a couple of pieces more than the 52 in the title in the boxes I bought, which is brilliant). These boxes would make a brilliant present for older children that are interested in Japanese foods and sweets or adults (like me!) that are young at heart, but I'd think twice about gifting to younger children because of the possible choking hazard of some small pieces. There's always a little thank you note and little origami sculpture in the box too, which make it feel that little bit more personal and conveys that the seller is really grateful for your custom. If you don't mind waiting a couple of weeks for it to arrive - it's got to come from Japan, after all and some postal systems are still messing about, which is in no way the fault of the seller or Amazon, I would wholeheartedly not hesitate to recommend these. The only thing I could think of that would improve them any - and I undertand why it might be that this doesn't happen (it would probably bump up the cost) - is to include a list of what's in the box. A lot of the time you can see into the packaging or make sense of the picture (like on the squid jerky strips) and occasionally there's some English text on there and the list really only is a suggestion,so it's not really a biggie. But yeah, I *love* these boxes and will continue to order them.

Purchased for daughter's birthday so won't be delved into until the end of January. However on taking a sneak peak it looks great and I know she'll love it! I bought a different package for Christmas and she loved that one, still has a few pieces left. Obviously not everything is liked but it's fun trying and we have discovered some lovely pieces too. This is a bigger parcel than the last one so should last a while (thought I have also ordered another different box from another seller in case one didn't turn up in time!). If I can (and remember) I will update this review after the package has been opened properly. Oh and delivery was quick.. ordered on 2/1/20 and arrived 14/1/20 : )

I was so excited to get this! It took a while to get to me and the company were really helpful and offered a refund if it didn’t show up. I was quite impressed with the range although a little put out I got a lot of the corn stick things (although in different flavours) but we got a such a variety of sweet and savoury it more then made up for that. I didn’t get a kitkat but did get one of the little play cookery candy sets which I’m looking forward to eating with the kids. It’s definitely value for money when you consider the cost compared to a lot of subscription company and I’ll definitely be ordering again in the future. I especially enjoyed the tiny Katsu curry crispy thing in there and their savoury selection has definitely made me a fan. If you can’t read Kana it would be handy to grab the google translate app which has a camera function, which helped us out loads when we got to stuff we couldn’t understand (although it is great practice!).

Didn't have the ninja sticker, kitkat or DIY candy in it as stated. Delivery was supposed to be between 17th-27th December, so I thought it was more than likely to be delivered in time for Christmas... It turned up on the 28th December, typical! This isn't the fault of the seller though, as was dispatched in the timeframe stated. However, it is still amazing, includes so many unique candies and my partner who I bought it for absolutely loves it!

I've had two of these now and will probably order another! They have a good variety of sweet and savoury treats, and each box is slightly different so if you order a couple you won't get a bunch of the same stuff. Fairly high price if you consider how cheap these items would probably be in Japan, but worth it for the experience. I will say that there's no sheet or booklet telling you what you're getting, so if you're not into the idea of eating mystery food these may not be for you! My housemate got quite a shock from an unexpected wasabi snack, and I was shook by a beef tongue Umaibo, but I think that's part of the fun!

Absolutely fantastic value, we had such a fun time going through the box and seeing what goodies we had! A wide range of sweet and savoury items, and some recognisable brands such as kitkat too. I chose the free shipping option, and the box arrived in about 2 weeks, actually before the estimated delivery date. So impressed with this box - if you like sampling different sweets and snacks, it’s amazing value. I looked at doing a subscription from one of the ‘big’ Japanese candy box companies and it worked out to be almost twice the price per month compared to this box. For £24 and free international delivery, it’s an absolute bargain and we thoroughly enjoyed rummaging through our treats.

I started watching anime a while back and whilst watching them I picked up on foods I wanted to try so I went on Amazon and came across this item, so I brought it. I am very pleased with this item! The foods were amazing and I love how you don’t know what your eating unless you can read Japanese. However I would say it takes a little while to come and I wouldn’t recommend buying it if you have food allergies unless you contact the seller since it doesn’t come with any descriptions of what is in the box! The seller also put a sticker and a little oragami swan in my box which made my day cause I love the little things! I will definitely buy this again for me or a friend when I can!!!!

Buoni, molto sfiziosi e particolari

Didn’t get mine so wanted one as well didn’t get delivered found out couldn’t get through Australian customs

Beaucoup de produits salés et sucrés. Une belle découverte de produits particulier.🤗

Me ha encantado. La chica que me lo ha enviado ha sido muy amable. Hay mucha variedad de productos, algunos más ricos que otros, pero la gran mayoría están genial y ha sido muy divertido comérmelos junto a mis amigas.

Era da un po’ che volevo provare ad ordinare dolcetti giapponesi in ricordo del mio amato Giappone e devo dire che il pacco ha soddisfatto in pieno le mie aspettative!!! Sapori tipici orientali alcuni molto particolari!! Ottima idea regalo per chi ama l’Oriente
