The first was Premium Taro Jelly Roll ($6.95). The taro flavour is light and the 'jelly' has a bit of squidginess without being too gelatinous to overpower the cake. The cake has a nice fine texture. I quite liked it and it makes for a nice snack.
The Honey Cake is described as "Soft and tender cake with rich honey, irresistible taste everyone like." and costs $2.40. I can't speak for "everyone" but I did indeed like it. Like the taro one, it too has a fine texture. It's somewhat sweeter and has a recognisable honey flavour - I think it would go nice with some hot green tea. I'll have to try remember that for next time as I gobbled it up pretty quickly.

How much: Premium Taro Jelly Roll was $6.95 and Honey Cake $2.40
I do love taro but it's grey-purple colour can often be offputting to people. The honey cake sounds delicious!
ReplyDeleteGood point Helen - not everyone seems to like the look of taro foods, it somehow doesn't cross my mind when I'm eating it cause I like the taste :)
