Collon: Japanese snacks part 2

November 3, 2008 | 5 Comments

Another very familiar biscuit that you will surely see before in your childhood days. Collon is virtually present at all leading supermarkets, so you must be wondering, why did i even bother to do a write-up on this? The typical collon is in the standard, chocolate, vanilla, and strawberry flavours. But this one here caught my partner’s attention as there’s a cheesecake picture on the box. Picture does tells a thousand words after all!

However, the small tiny roll with “cheesecake” cream sorely disapointed us. The taste was very subtle, almost non-existance, more like the normal vanilla than cheesecake. So don’t bother buying this when you see it the next time round at Meidi-ya.

This is a series of posts on Japanese snack, stay tune for the
Japanese snacks part 3!

    Wow, have you recently gone to Liang Court to clean-sweep their goodies. I thought the biscuits are pretty expensive but I used to splurge them when I dropped by NUS co-op.

    Do look out for the green tea biscuits, I can’t remember the name but there are 12 pieces individually wrapped. It is yummy =)

    Oh, if you happen to be at Liang Court, don’t forget to pop by Tampopo Deli… Love their Scoop Cake and Matcha Chiffon =P

    I used to like eating collon but not anymore since I gotta balance my diet ^^; btw, if u were around Meidi-ya, you should try their Hokkaido Ice-cream stall around there. Love their ice-creams the most!

    Is collon nice? I bought a chocolate favour but it was only alright. It’s made in Thailand though.
