Japanese Fruits Daifuku (Rice Cake)-Melon Flavor

Great texture and sweet melon flavor. There is a marshmallow layer between the mochi and the melon paste.

These Japanese Fruits Rice Cakes are very freshness and the size is good for the value of the money you spend for getting these Japan Fruits in this package still. Sugar content is not that much to worry as it is not a very extremely high sugar content so just right for the amount per each Rice cake to have or eat still. I would not say of this product food item would be very crunchiness but more like a soft chewy rice cake melon flavor but no crunchiness at all. Highly recommended if you like Rice cake Japanese deserts like this! :)

Sooooo yummy !!! 10/10

Not exactly what I suspected, but was still delightful. Basically, bean jam inside a marshmellow inside a powder coated soft gelatin. Not really sweet until you get to the marshmellow layer, but then it becomes very sweet. The melon flavor and scent seemed really subtle to me. Mostly just tastes like a-lot-of-sugar with a hint of rice-flour. It's really-really soft, which wasn't as I expected, but is actually pleasant in a unique way. They aren't the healthiest snack you could pick and they are rather small for how much sugar is densely packed into the center, but it makes for a yummy treat to go alone or along with some hot tea. I wouldn't recommend eating more than two of these at a time, unless you plan on chugging a ton of water to help pass them through your system. I ate three and my stomach feels like I just ate a large sandwich. :s

Edit: 10/16/2021: I've been ordering these a lot and the packaging has always been identifical and the product delicious. But now I just received my order today and it's a completely different brand and packaging. Judging by the other reviews, the product usually is very substandard if you received something that doesn't look like the product photo. I'm wary, but will give theses a try tonight. Reduced my review to 3 stars because I do not like the "bait & switch"...I order something because I like the flavor of *that* brand, not a different one, and I don't like that it can switch and I won't know what I'm receiving. "New" brand/packaging in 3rd photo. Absolutely love this product. I've tried a couple different ones from other places (mostly Taiwan) and although they are good, this one has been the best so far. The melon flavor is wonderful (to my US audience, it's like a sweet Honey Dew Melon flavor) and the inside filling is sweet with a good texture. The whole thing is delightful and I enjoy chilling mine in the fridge before eating so it's a bit firmer and a refreshing dessert for summer. I recommend putting it in a zip lock bag after opening if you aren't going to eat it in one sitting - although I've never had mine "go bad" it does get a little stiffer if it's exposed to air and not sealed (honestly this didn't ruin anything, just a texture difference I noticed). Wonderful price, product, and I will definitely keep ordering! 😀

Tasty So I really like trying foods from other countries. As a huge anime fan I lean more towards wanting to try Japanese foods in particular. A fanfiction ideas mentioned daifuku so I decided to try this. The taste is almost exactly like I thought. Not super sweet (even though it is very high in carbs) but maybe on par with a gummy bear. The melon taste is also not overwhelming. I can definitely tell it's melon though. It has a picture of a musk melon/cantaloupe but the flavor is more honeydew with a hint of the cantaloupe sweetness. I have no idea how to describe the texture. If you are sensitive to mouth feel textures this might not be for you. It's weird. Smooshy but not, sorta gummy like but not. A smooshy soft gummy? A marshmallow gummy? Idk, but it's weird and odd and I like it. There is a slight texture difference when you reach the bean paste filling but not a lot. I almost couldn't tell a difference between the two. There is a slight powder coating, I guess to prevent sticking. It is very thin an not super noticable. Less than what you would find on a Turkish Delight. Overall I would definitely recommend trying it.

Tasty, great quality

Okay...so... American fan of foreign candy and food perspective. I'm going to try to describe these, but honestly, they're like NOTHING I've ever had before. So, imagine a marshmallow, a gummy candy, and a slice of canteloupe all hop into some sci fi fusion chamber. They're super soft, but also chewy, I really don't have anything to compare it to. The flavor is amazing after that first tentative bite. The melon flavor isn't quite as strong as I would like, but the best way to describe it is...a melon flavor, semi-gelatinous marshmallow. You get eight delicious cakes roughly the size of a golf ball, so they're definitely worth the money.
