Lithuanian snacks

I made a swap on Instagram with @lithuaniangirl16  and she sent me these Lithuanian candies and snacks in return of the ones I sent to her. Let’s get started!

  First of all I received this big package of fruit flavoured gummies. They are called Mix and I think Laima is the brand. (@lithuaniangirl16 if you read this post please confirm my guesses and doubts in a comment 🙂 )

The gummies have so real fruit flavour, they are not artificial, and that is the fact I like about them, but the texture is strange, maybe because I am more used to «plastic» artificially gummies than natural ones.

Then we move onto a salty snack. Oho! Snack is a package of puffed wheat with onion, leek? and yogurt? Please, let me know the real ingredients of this ❤

They are so tasty, but the flavour is a little bit strange for me. I actually like them, even they are not crunchy, but the flavour is a strong and litlle bit spicy one, so I still have to get used to it.

Nomeda is a chocolate bar filled with  wafle, strawberry jelly and peanuts I think , but I am not 100% sure . The texture is crunchy and the flavour you feel the most is the strawberry jelly. I had never tasted something similar to this and I am not sure of my feelings, but it is not bad at all, just a little bit oversweet when you have eaten more than 3 bites.

Pupa is another chocolate bar, this time filled with cocoa and coffe «cream». It tastes too much like coffe, and I do like coffe, but I have never liked things with coffe flavour. However, this is not as bas as it could be. I could perfectly ate it all, but still think coffe flavoured things are not my all time favourites.

And last but not least  there is this Manija chocolate bar filled with milk cream, caramel and peanuts. The milk cream part tastes just as Milky Way (have you ever tried them?), and then there is the caramel which I love, but the worst part about this are the peanuts. If this will have made without those big pieces of peanuts it will be perfect, but guess what? I have never liked chocolate with dried fruts and nuts, not even almonds. I like to enjoy the flavour of the chocolate itself, maybe with a little bit of caramel of whatever, but not almonds or peanuts or those kind of dried fruts. In my opinion they ruin the pleasure of eating chocolate.

Of course everyone has their opinions and likes, so I respect everyone of them. Do you like chocolate with dried fruts, or you are just like me and cant stand it? Let me know in the comments please 🙂

Snacks from USA (Minion Tic Tacs, Pop Tarts, Reese´s, Goldfish, Cheetos and Slim Jim)

Today is the turn of more USA candy, chocolates and snacks, are you ready?

I had seen this package of Minions Tic Tacs  so many times on Instagram photos, and why to lie, I wanted so bad. In Spain there is a box of Tic Tacs with minion image in the box, but not drawn on the Tic Tacs itself.

This plus the pop tarts and Reese’s I am going to review later were sent by @mintyxpost  on Instagram because of a candy swap we did.

The flavour of these mints is so so good! They are fluit flavoured but I do think they taste like sweet and at the same time sour lemon, and I like it a lot.

Snacks from Hong Kong (Ahh´, Pop Can, chocolate and green tea cookies)

Hello again guys! I told you in the last post that I had more snacks from @fsw_swap on Instagram to review, so here they come!! And with these we put end to her snacks, but not to China/Hong Kong snacks hahaha

The first one is a salty snack. It is called Ahh’ and it is from the brand Richeese, which I search on the Internet and I think it is from Indonesia. The package also says triple cheese, so I bet it exists this same snack but with less cheese.

Now we get into the test tasting. When you first open it you see an orange bar with lot of cheese smell. When you bite it you see that is a corn snack such as  Gusanitos in Spain but covered with lots and lots of cheese! I couldnt stop eating it and I finish it in just a second! It was so so would, really. Very soft and crunchy. I wish Spanish Gusanitos tasted like this.

Cartoons corn snacks (Minios, Frozen and Time for adventures)

Today is Sunday, so I will review three cartoons corn snacks that I have being eating during this week (I couldn’t it all three in one day sorry hahaha).

First one is a Minions cheesy corn snack. The package is just too cute, and the snacks try to copy the Minions shape. They come with a Minions tattoo inside (it is a surprise gift, so I dont know if it is always a tattoo).

The snacks taste so good, but I do think they are too similar to other cheesy snacks. There cant be so different ones from anothers as they are all made with corn and cheese flavour, so you know, it is a common flavour, but a really good one.

Disney princesses cheesy corn snack!

Hi! Happy Saturday everybody! Yesterday i found a new candy shop near my house and I enter to see what they had. And great surprise, they had hundreds of different candy and snacks, spanish products i had never seen! And as you may imagine, i bought several things to review 🙂

Today i wanted to try for the first time this corn snack with cheese flavour. In the past, i tasted lots of snacks similar to this one, but you know, it has Disney princesses on the package and they are heart shapes, so it is long better than the ones i have tasted hahaha.

To be honest, the flavour is the same as other cheesy corn snacks, but i have to admit i like them a lot. The texture is perfect, crunchy and soft. They have heart shape which is a positive point and the packaging is just awesome.

It included a surprise gift that turned out being a princess ring (Cinderella to be precise). I will give the ring to the daughter of my Japanesse penpal, she is 3 years old and loves disney princesses too much! If i ever buy them again will let you know if the gift is always a ring or they haver different things.

The bag weights 28g and is gluten free.

I put some photos for you to see the snack and the gift.

Today the review will be about candy! 💗

Popcorns covered with chocolate and strawberry.

Hi! Today is Thursday, so it is review day!
I went buying some snacks for the next 3 reviews and today I was into the mood of tasting those you see in the photo.

They are two popcorn packages from the company Tosfrit from Spain. The special about these is that they are not normal popcorn, one is cover with strawberry and the other with chocolate and hazelnuts. Athey are calles Caprichocos and it is the first time I see them here.

The strawberry one is sooo good! I liked it very much! It is so soft and fresh and the flavour is amazing. Whereas the popcorn is not real popcorn like the ones you have at the cinema or make in the microwave. They are like corn snacks with yellow colour.

On the other hand, the chocolate one is not so good. It tastes good, but it is not too tasty. I have tried another brand of chocolate popcorns that are better (I will give you the brand in the future as I dont remember it now).

Each bag is 30g weight and they are gluten free.

So after all of these, I will make my scores:

• Packaging Factor: 7
• Flavour Factor: 6 (chocolate) and 8 (strawberry)

Fritos – corn snack with BBQ flavour.

Fritos are a corn snack from the company Matutano, from Spain. They are strips made with corn and with salty and BBQ flavour, but it is not a stong flavour, actually it is really soft and nice.

They are gluten free, something very important these days due to all the celiac people and each bag weights 42g and has 229kcal.

They are very crunchy and addictive, once you taste one you need to eat the entire package, and that is exactly what happened to me.

The packaging design is quite simple, but the colours make you to think about BBQ sauce. I like Matutano’s logo a lot! It is quite funny 🙂 This company has lots of different snacks, and I am sure I will be reviewing some in the future.

I can’t wait to get some international snacks that are travelling to my home, and to be honest I am veryyy excited about trying japanesse candy! They are so strange to me, but at the same time really cute, and I am dying for trying new flavours!

Hope you like these reviews, and stayed tuned for upcoming international candy.

Pretzels from Tiger

Hello guys! Today I tasted for the first time these Pretzels from Tiger shop.

I bought them here in Spain, but I do think you can find them in every Tiger shop from all over the world.

Well, as you mostly know, pretzels are origanally from Germany, and there they have hugeeee ones!

The ones i have bought are pretty good! But be aware that they are extremelly salty, so have a drink with you!

They are crispy salty cookies with a very special flavour and loop shape and you can find salt licks on them.

The original ones that are made in Germany are bigger and with bread texture, no crispy one. I tried several ones of them in my last trip to Germany on the month of July.

Curritos – puffed rice with ham flavour

 Curritos is a package of puffed rice with ham flavour. It is a Spanish product of Aspil brand.

It weights 12g and has 55 kcal per package.

Rice has been baked with sunflower oil and it’s gluten free so you don’t have to worry if you are celliac.

This one is included in the salty snacks category, and here is my review:

The flavour is just awesome, I personaly love it! The texture is a little bit crunchy, but soft at the same time and it  only has one bad thing, you finish them too fast! As the bag is not too big.

The desing of the package is quite childis, but I do love childish things, so that makes me to like more the product.
