Cheap Japanese snack shops in Koenji

Japan has many awesome snacks. They produce different seasonal snacks and sometimes also collaborate with popular characters to create packaging that is irresistible.

I’m a fan of white chocolate and nuts and when I was in Japan during summer, I just couldn’t help but grab a box of this. It says on the box ”冷やしてもおいしい!” (hiyashite mo oishii), which means that it is delicious even when chilled. 

My question was, “Why wouldn’t it be?” 

Haha! 

Anyway, chilled or not, this was yummy. 

I go crazy when I see shops like this in small towns like Koenji (yea, this was in Koenji. haha!). You can often find many snacks you love at very low prices. 

I once bought my favourite Japanese snack at only 100 yen each! My country sells these too, but at 3 times 100yen!

This is the one I’m talking about!

My mother introduced this to me when I was a kid. It was love at first bite!

Kawaii Animal Donuts at Floresta

Yesterday, my boyfriend and I went to check out Floresta at Koenji.

They sell these donuts at 350yen each. They are tiny but filling, and extremely well-made! They were really delicious too~ XD

Not all Floresta bakeries have these animal donuts, and I’m really not sure which outlets have them besides the Koenji branch, but Koenji is pretty worth a visit. They have many cute cafes there for one~!

Of course, Floresta has the usual donuts like these too. They are really yummy as well. They taste healthier than your usual donuts. I think they use some kind of wholewheat flour? The insides are not your usual white pastry.

Floresta Koenji opens from 9am to 9pm.
