Recently I decided to create an online shopping site for others who love these goodies but cannot find them where they live. Now it's easy to acquire all your Oriental favorites right through this straight-forward page.
Simply click on the items you're interested in and you can browse a world of wonderful tastes.
I love Japanese candy and hope this page inspires you to try some, yourself.

Unique Sweets
Here is a Japanese candy "primer" to help you know what you might enjoy.
Pocky (or poche) Sticks are a type of baked dough stick coated in flavored yogurt, typically chocolate and strawberry, although many other varieties are available.
Botan Rice Candy is a small lemon-flavored solid gelatin cube wrapped first in a flaky sheet of rice paper, which gets eaten, and then in plastic.
Other popular items include green tea macha balls, fizzy sour candies, fruit flavored gummies, and unique varieties of chewing gum.

Kasugai Japanese Gummy Candy, Kiwi Flavor, 4.76-Ounce Bags (Pack of 12)

Kasugai's Kiwi Gummi is my all-time favorite Japanese candy. It is fresh, juicy, full of fruit flavour. Very refreshing.
Spotlight On: Lotte Ume Plum Gum
Ume Plum Chewing Gum
Amazon Price: $2.09 (as of 06/02/2012)![]()
A unique flavour not available (as far as I know) in western confections. I loved the novelty idea of this unique product as well as the taste.
