Bringing Japan’s favorites to your door with TokyoTreat this Cherry Blossom Season, their “Cherry Blossom Bites” box is a real treat, packed & sealed straight from Japan, a real cherry-shing experience! Bite into Japan and let the flavors blossom, releasing March 15th!

From sweet marshmallow bites to savory rice snacks, to everything in between, we tried the full “Cherry Blossom Bites” box filled with pink sakura-themed treats, perfectly petal-powered for the spring season.

Pink packaging? Yes, please! Super Sakura-themed and cute packaging, which Japan does well, it’s truly Sakura-mazing! 

Every product was themed for the new season with a manual discussing the new season ahead, perfect for people interested in Cherry Blossoms, Japan, and getting to know more about the Hanami picnic (which these treats are perfect for, a real picnic).

Did we also hear GIVEAWAY? TokyoTreat is giving away free treats for every buyer, and the instructions and prizes read:

March Contest:

If you snap a photo/reel/video and tag @TokyoTreat on Instagram, X, or Facebook by April 25th, you can win…

Grand Prize (1 Winner) 1x Hello Kitty Tamagotchi (a tamagotchi-tastic prize!) 3-Month FREE TokyoTreat Subscription (a subscription that’s blooming with treats!)

Runner-Ups (4 Winners) 1x Tamagotchi Lovely Pouch, 1 Month FREE TokyoTreat Subscription.

There were more special insights in the box, highlighting spots like Himeji, Hirosaki, and Osaka Castle for historical views, to the sakura-like spots such as Miharu Takizakura in Fukushima and its waterfall-like branches, and Jindai-Zakura in Yamanashi – one of the oldest trees with a HUGE crowd. How to host a Hanami, bento boxes, drinks to try, famous flowers, conbini culture, and more, a real garden of knowledge!

Now… time for the full snack review! So before you buy, you can get a sneak peek of what is in store, a real cherry on top!

Hakata Tonkotsu Ramen 

Vegetarian Friendly? Pink packaging? Yes, please! A creamy pork bone broth from Hakata, Fukuoka, that’s truly ramen-tic. You can add green onion, egg, etc… Perfect for a full warm meal for the spring weather with a punch of salty flavor.

Senbei Spring Mix 

A mix of savory and sweet senbei rice crackers with 7 different flavors! Packaging showcases all 7 rice crackers, a rainbow of rice! Each bite was a new surprise, which added to the fun! Flavors: Sakura Salt, Plain, Sakura Fried Shrimp, Matcha Cream, Honey & Soy Sauce, Black Sesame. A senbei-sational experience!

Sour Plum Salt Crackers 

Vegetarian Friendly. Pink and pretty packaging, imitating Sakura petals, which was a super cute touch, a petal-perfect snack! Crunchy, puffy crackers with a light and sour kick. Shareable and airy, we could finish the bag within minutes! A plum-believable treat.

Sakura Donut 

Vegetarian Friendly. Cute and small packaging, which makes it not stand out, though it was a stand-out treat! Described as crispy and soaked in sakura syrup – blooming good! A sweet donut stick, which I’m surprised was still moist after the long travels from Japan! 

Pistachio & Strawberry Pai no Mi 

Vegetarian Friendly. With a huge cake on the box’s packaging, but don’t be fooled – it’s a puff pastry-like photo with pistachio filling in between. Pistachio and tart strawberry (crispy, pastry, flaky), a pistachio creamed center. Very airy and pastry-like, perfect for snacking.

Sakura Petal Marshmallows 

The cutest sakura pink packaging that makes the marshmallows look like sakura petals. Soft, small, sweet. Great for hot chocolate, pancakes, etc… Your typical marshmallow, nothing too special, but the petal size of it made it extra memorable and fun.

Peach Mochi 

Vegetarian Friendly. A chewy peach mochi wrapped in edible rice paper made with REAL peach juice! Super sticky but worth it for the peachy flavor!

Strawberry Shortcake KitKats

Vegetarian Friendly. Crispy and combines creamy white chocolate with tangy strawberry. Was so good, was my absolute favorite from the whole box. Many KitKats came individually wrapped, great for sharing or on the go!

Onion Puff Snacks 

A super airy puff ball flavored with onion. The flavor kinda gave us a chicken masala flavor, which melted on the mouth perfectly and was super bingeable! An onion-believable snack.

The box also included onion-flavored pretzel sticks, extra savory rice crackers, more cakey treats, and other exciting snacks!

Like what you see? You can purchase the Sakura-themed box on TokyoTreat this Cherry Blossom season on March 15th! Don’t miss out on this blooming good deal!
