Fro-yo girl here. While shopping at Mitsuwa I came across a big tub of Japanese strawberry yogurt jelly from Wakayama Sangyo Zao. A 14.11 oz tub of strawberry yogurt jelly was $3.29.
* Strawberry yogurt jelly: The yogurt was soft in texture and it had a mild strawberry flavor with big pieces of strawberry throughout. It tasted like a strawberry yogurt drink. It was a little bland but I liked how it wasn’t super sweet.
Ingredients: Sugar, strawberries, vegetable oil, milk powder, etc.
3.5 out of 5 stars.
You know you love me. X0 X0, fro-yo girl.

Fro-yo girl here. Pinkberry recently came out with Pinkberry Peanut Butter Cup which they describe as “the creamy, blissful texture of peanut butter falls in love with decadent flavors of chocolate. It’s the perfect match of creamy and sweet.”
For some reason I didn’t realize it was a swirl of two existing flavors: Peanut Butter and Hot Chocolate. It’s much lighter than soft serve ice cream. I liked the Peanut Butter better than the chocolate because of the slight saltiness. The two flavors together were too sweet and didn’t taste like yogurt.

Fro-yo girl here. I found another Japanese yogurt flavored candy while shopping at Nijiya. Kanro’s Candemina comes in a sealable pouch and it’s labeled as a soft candy.
The candy looks wavy and is a firm and very chewy gummy. It is tangy because of the sour powder coating but it tastes like a children’s chewable vitamin.The gummy part is sweet. I would like it better if it didn’t taste like chewable vitamins.
Ingredients: sugar, corn syrup, polydextrose, gelatine, dextrin, sweetened condensed milk, whole milk powder, acidulant, artificial flavor, starch, calcium carbonate, acesulfame potassium
One 1.48 oz. pouch of Candemina is $1.99 at Nijiya Market. You can buy it online from jbox.
3 out of 5 stars.

Fro-yo girl here. I found another yogurt flavored popsicle. Akemi ice popsicles are from Taiwan. They’re very pretty with four flavors in one popsicle. Each color is a different flavor. There are eight flavor stripes per popsicle. The green is muskmelon, the red is cranberry, the orange is mango and the white is yogurt. The popsicles are flavored with real fruit juice.
The popsicle is soft and light with a texture similar to Yasso and Yolato bars (or think of fruit sherbet). It’s refreshing and melts in your mouth.
The fruity flavors are distinct but not intense. Mango is the sweetest. Muskmelon sounds exotic but its cantaloupe. The cranberry stripe was my favorite as it had a bit of tanginess. The yogurt stripe was the worst because it tasted like a sweetened yogurt drink (e.g., Yakult) and reminded me of the taste of children’s chewable aspirin.
Ingredients: water, sugar, fructose, milk powder, lactic acid, malic acid, cantaloupe juice, mango juice, cranberry juice, emulsifier, food color, etc.
3.5 out of 5 stars.
