SOYJOY - Apricot

Cravingness: ★★★★☆

Another new flavour, another new SOYJOY collection from Japan! Apricot SOYJOY is not launched in Hong Kong yet, so here I tried my soy bar and share how it tasted like.

The soy bar would not give you a strong immediate flow of apricot smell, but as you started munching on the bar, you could smell the fragrance coming from the bar and spreading into your mouth. In this soy bar, you could find apricot, papaya, raisons and almond along the bar. An interesting fact is this was the most chewy soy bar of all those I had tried out, meaning it is actually quite hard, yet not too hard to chew. Luckily the extra chewiness did not contribute an extra dryness, the soy bar had the same dryness as the other soy bars.

Reading the ingredient list, I often found quite puzzle to see the word 'perfume' along with all those sugar, salt, fruits or unknown chemical names. Is perfume eatable?

Another thing I found annoying about SOYJOY is their colour packaging, which is very confusing, especially in Japan where I had no idea what the japanese words mean. Let me explain where the confusion came from.

Sure, there is a slight different between all the colours, but when you have all of the colours in front of you, you wont be knowing which is which.
