'Black Thunder bite-sized THE Vanilla' pre-tasting review, combining the crunchy texture of Black Thunder with the scent of vanilla - GIGAZINE

Yuraku Confectionery's 'Black Thunder Bite-sized' series will be releasing ' Black Thunder Bite-sized THE Vanilla,' a new product themed on the popular combination of vanilla and chocolate in sweets and ice cream, on Tuesday, April 9, 2024. The editorial department received a new Black Thunder with a light texture that combines crumbly butter cookies and crispy

feuilletine , and a scent of Madagascar vanilla, so we tried it first.

'Black Thunder Bite-sized THE Vanilla' came in a box like this.

The packaging features catchphrases such as 'Enjoy a soothing moment with fragrant, rich vanilla' and 'Satisfaction in every bite.'

In addition to chocolate, other ingredients include 'feuilletine' and 'vanilla sugar.'

The calorie content is 236kcal per 43g bag.

When I opened the bag, there were seven bite-sized Black Thunders inside.

'Black Thunder Bite-sized THE Vanilla' (left) is slightly darker in color than the regular '

Black Thunder Bite-sized ' (right), and features a rough surface made from butter cookies and biscuits inside.

If you cut it in half and compare the contents, you can see that the 'Black Thunder Bite-Size THE Vanilla' uses finely crushed fiantines, biscuits, and butter cookies, and is very different from the regular Black Thunder, which is a base cocoa cookie and has a dark center.

For comparison, we will start with the regular Black Thunder. The regular version has a crunchy texture and the sweetness of the chocolate is enhanced by the bitterness of the cocoa cookies.

And the new 'Black Thunder Bite-Size THE Vanilla' has a vanilla scent that spreads the moment you put it in your mouth, while the sweetness of the chocolate remains in your mouth, while the bitterness is quite modest. The crunchy texture of Black Thunder is intact, but the rich sweetness has been increased, so it's not only good to eat it as a snack, but also to prepare tea or coffee and use it as a companion to tea time.

The suggested retail price for 'Black Thunder Bite-sized THE Vanilla' is 149 yen including tax, and will be available exclusively at convenience stores nationwide from Tuesday, April 9, 2024.
