JAPAN PART 2 - SWEET COURTESY







it is a japanese tradition to bring gifts to the house you are visiting.
therefore, since my mum and i were visiting my grandparents house we decided to pick up a few gifts!

the white box was senbei for my grandpa. senbei is the japanese name for rice cracker! japan has some of the best senbei, so if you're into rice crackers, go all out in japan!

 the tokyo banana is a soft cake filled with a banana custard. people all over go crazy for this treat! this treat was flying off the shelves at narita airport. 
be sure to get you hand on these bad boyz when you be hittin up tokyo.

my fav treat however, was the strawberry cake from ginza.
this cake is filled with custard and strawberry cream. the cake is very fluffy and it works perfectly with the custard+creme (melts in yo mouth). it has an itsybitsy strawberry imprinted onto the cake like seen in the fifth picture above!

give these treats a try, they were delicious!

-happy gift giving
