Visiting the Melbourne Kit Kat Chocolatory

12 / 24 / 16

Kit Kat Chocolatory Melbourne

I’m something of a fiend when it comes to special Kit Kat flavors, to the extend that there was no way I was going to miss the Kit Kat Chocolatory in Tokyo when I was there last in 2014. When I heard they opened another location in Melbourne, Australia, back in October, I knew I had to make the pilgrimage! Luckily, I had the perfect excuse when I was down for an academic conference earlier this month. Read on for a full report!

New Video: Sweet Potato Candy Tasting

2 / 3 / 16

For the first Apricotsushi Samples of 2016, I’m trying a flavor of sweets I’ve never had before… Sweet potato! Unfortunately I originally recorded this as a Christmas special (complete with festive outfit!), but a dead camera battery meant I didn’t actually end up recording as much footage as I thought I had. Needless to say, I had to do it over. But I’m not complaining – that just meant I got to try them all again!

I will say that after trying a few more of the Kit Kats and comparing them with the original pudding bakeable Kit Kats, I can make out the more “earthy” flavor of the sweet potato. It’s still very subtle, but I think I like the fact they’re not as sweet as pudding ones. If you want to try sweet potato Kit Kats for yourself, you can purchase a bag at Jlist!

I have a lot more candy where this came from, so expect many more episodes of Apricotsushi Samples in the upcoming months!

I’ve been really enjoying brushing off the dust from my 3DS’s this month! On a whim, I decided to finally try Ever Oasis for #ARPGAugust, and I’m really enjoying it so far. It has a really pleasant mix of town building and exploring! Plus, the characters are really cute 😍 the director Koichi Ishii is famous for creating the Mana series, so it’s got a very good pedigree! Has anyone else played this game?
