A convenience store's sweets -Pumpkin taste sweets-

Hi everyone! Autumn has come and the temperature is getting colder day by day. Today's date is October 15th, so in 2 weeks, Halloween will come!! In Japanese convenience stores, there are sales of many kinds of new sweets that use autumn flavors like sweet potato, chestnut and pumpkin. Especially, pumpkin flavored sweets are the most popular in convenience stores. I think the reason is that Japanese people think pumpkin is representative of autumn.

 

Today, I bought a pumpkin cake at Seven Eleven. The price is 250 yen. Look at package of cake. You'll notice a Halloween design: a  ghost, bat and Jack-o-lantern. This is a sponge cake with pumpkin cream. The taste is a nice pumpkin taste and the texture is very fluffy! I like this cake! An amount is enough for me and the price is not expensive, so I want to buy it again. How about trying it if you find it at Seven Eleven? 

I also bought another item, Kinoko-no Yama-Creamy Pumpkin Taste-. This is a time-limited new flavor of the Kinoko-no Yama series. Do you know the Kinoko-no Yama series? This is a very popular confection sold by the Meiji company. This series has another confection series, Takenoko-no Sato. There are made from chocolate and biscuit. Kinoko-no Yama is shaped like a mushroom and Takenoko-no Sato shaped like takenoko (takenoko means bamboo shoot.). The price is 307 yen. The flavor of this is also good pumpkin taste, so I like it, but the amount is a little bit much for one person. I suggest you eat it with someone.

Thanks for reading!
