Omg! I’ve seen these all over Instagram, we’re they really good?

I wouldn't get them again. A bit too much bun compared with filling for me. I was really hungover earlier though so that didn't help as I shouldn't have eaten anything when feeling so rough.

That’s a shame. How are you now?

I have some itsu buns in the freezer. They’re usually ok, but not as cute.

Purple Opal Fruits are not Original Opal Fruits. They were only introduced later, and they don’t count.

Well, I had to go back to bed at 2 and didn't get up again until almost 6. But, I feel fine now and so I can only be happy about that!

I found Tony's milk creamy hazelnut crunch and milk crispy wafer bars in a shop near my house today. I've never seen these flavours before. They are very nice but I love the salty ones the best.

A colleague brought these into work today too and they are lovely. I’m going to have to go back for some for home, and more of the mince pies.

They’re available year-round here. It would probably be more fun if they weren’t.

Are they really? I have to stockpile them as they disappear after Easter. Sometimes I can find not-cross buns but not reliably.
