てづくりラムネ Tedukuri Ramune (Sweet Tart like candy)

This is another fun DIY Japanese Candy set. The taste is very similar to SweetTarts but not as hard.

But a word of warning first, this kit can get very messy. I wouldn't recommend it for anyone under 7.

The kit comes with three powder packets that essentially form your primary colors palette.

1. You put one tiny drop of water with the provide spoon and you mix the powder very well with your fingers until it gets clumpy. This can take a bit of time. 
2. Once you have all three colors mixed, you can start to make new colors by combining the primary colors. 
3. Afterwards, fill the molds, place the lid of the mold on and press firmly on each mold so that the candy is packed down.
4. Remove the lid, turn the mold up-side-down and pop the candies out. Done!

Kracie TonTon Undokai 3D Animals Candy Kit

Kracie TonTon Undokai Candy Kit

I came across a candy set at my local Japanese market this week. The Kracie TonTon Undokai 3D Animals Candy Kit uses edible Play-doh to put together two animals that compete with each other in a sporting event.

The animal and sporting event is a surprise. Upon opening I found that I got a penguin and a wolf and they are to compete in a track and field race. The animals were easy to put together and within minutes, they were ready to race. Watch the video to see who wins!

This kit is a lot of fun because you get to build it, play with it and then eat it. The edible "Play-doh" feels and tastes like taffy. The animal head and body is a bit firmer and the yellow body pieces are soft and easily molded. The candies actually taste quite good good. For $2.19, it's an awesome deal and a fun Easter basket filler.

I do not see Amazon selling this particular kit, but they do sell ones similar to it also by Kracie. Listed are a few.
