Candy Japan is a bi-monthly candy subscription. Twice a month, they send you “interesting and delicious” candies in an envelope for you to try. They say to expect 2-6 candies per month. This subscription is $25 a month, so about $12.50 per envelope.
The owner of this subscription kindly sent me their last months shipment in exchange for an honest review.
Here are the 3 items that I received:
Popin Cookin Takoyaki Shaped Candy: Do-It-Yourself candy? This DIY kit is actually a kind of second, improved revision on one that we sent long ago. The biggest difference is that this one is not sweet, but actually very close in taste to real takoyaki.
Anpanman Pero Pero Choco: Anpanman is one of the most popular anime characters among Japanese kids and has been going on in Japan since the 80s to today. The package is decorated with characters from the series and also the lolly itself has character imprints. The name means “Anpanman Lick Lick Chocolate”.
Choco which appears to be chocolate with strawberry covering.
As for the value of this box, I am very confident that these candies didn’t equal the $12.50. But then again, shipping is super expensive, and you are paying for things you can’t get anywhere. So I think it is a matter of personal opinion if it is worth the money. For a candy addict like me, it would definitely be worth it.
