Kit cut "Sublim Ruby" arrives at the editorial department. Opening the box ......


There was a kit cut individually packaged one by one. This time I bought 10 bottles.


Looking at the name of the raw material, "citric acid" "fragrance" was contained in the back, followed by "chocolate (sugar, cocoa butter, whole milk powder, cocoa powder)", flour, lactose ... It was.


In the box kit pack cut individually.


Opened.


I'm trying to compare it with the regular kit kit cut mini.


So on the left is Sabrim ruby. The color is dark eyes, pink of a slightly dull color. Kit kit mini is a set of 1, the length is about twice Saburimu ruby ​​is kit cut mini.


The thickness is the same.


The cross section looks something like this. The wafer structure inside is the same, both sublim ruby ​​and kitcut mini, the cream that is caught between the wafers looked the same.


When I try to eat it, the taste spreading in my mouth is that rather than berry, it is a fragrant white chocolate. I feel the white chocolate stronger than the so-called milk chocolate. After a while eating, the sourness gradually spreads, there is atmosphere like raspberry, but from the fact that "citric acid" was written in the raw material name, it is whether the acidity is the intrinsic acidity of ruby ​​or the sourness of citric acid is It is a difficult point to distinguish.


The crispy texture etc was kit cut itself.


Compared to the commercial Ichigo chocolate, you can see that the color is quite dark and unique color. Also, Sabrimu Ruby's raw material was written as "fragrance", but there is no artificial berry scent like commercial strawberry chocolate.


The raw material of the strawberry-based chocolate used for comparison included the letters "coloring matter" "pigment", but since the characters corresponding to them were not found in Sabrimu Ruby, the coloring was derived from ruby ​​chocolate I think that it is something that exists.




In addition, Saburimu ruby ​​is 432 yen per tax including tax. The 1-day sales quantity is limited, and the handling of Sabrimu Ruby alone is until January 25 for both store and mail order. Also, from 26th to 31st, on-line sales of "Sublim Valentine Assort" (5 bottles / tax included 1944 yen, 7 bottles / 2592 yen) including ruby ​​began sales, and at the kitcut chocolate stores 2018 It will be handled from February 1st.
