Japanese green tea jelly (real name needed! XD)

 A typical sweet from Japan - the taste is sweet and not very strong. Not every European likes this kind of food. I do, even though I needed some time to get used to it. :)
The box looks very elegant, and I would normally think there are some truffles inside - if it wasn't japanese of course.
 Many of the sweets I tried in Japan were similar to this, so I wasn't too surprised. The jellies were so soft, I had to wait until someone else tastes them first anyways. They were really strange XD
The green balls could be easily mistaken with some fluffy things if you had your eyes closed, and were only touching them. They are covered with green tea powder (not sweet. Just the tea taste)
 The candies are white inside. It's some kind of rice-jelly I think. The taste is sweet. Just sweet. No aromas, nor special tastes. It's a light dessert. Nothing like all the caramel/chocolate/vanilla stuff we are used to. If you'll like it, you'd probably like most of the japanese sweets too :)

Tastino - CARLO CREME



I like cookies with creamy filling :)
Most of them have chocolate or vanilla inside, so it's good to taste something a bit diffent.


These cookies are very tasty. Not as crunchy as I supposed though.
I think they are made of some kind of sponge cake, but it's quite hard for this type.

The filling is not liquid, but quite soft, and full of taste (more chocolate than nuts for me) even though there's not much of the cream inside the cookies.


It's a typical "cheap&tasty" thing. You probably won't say that they are awesome. They can even taste as they aren't 100% fresh, because of the cake type, but they are tasty, and there is nothing to complain about :)
Good idea for parties (not the gourmet type ones ;) )
