This box of chocolates by Fujiya, called Look A La Mode Chocolate, contains four flavours: coffee, strawberry, almond and banana. There’s a total of twelve chocolates in the package, three of each flavour. They’re supposed to be individual chocolates, but as you can see mine were stuck together unfortunately.

Coffee Flavour
This chocolate had a nice, recognizable, coffee flavour to it, but it’s not too overpowering. Even as someone who doesn’t love coffee; I still enjoyed it because the flavour wasn’t too strong. The filling was slightly creamy and the coffee flavour fit well with the chocolate.

Strawberry Flavour
The filling clearly had a strawberry flavour, which is slightly sour but mainly very sweet. It had a creamy texture and a pink colour, as expected from the picture on the packaging. I liked the flavour and thought the strawberry filling went well with the chocolate.

Almond Flavour
Less creamy than the other fillings, it was a bit more dry and harder than the other ones. It didn’t have a very strong flavour to it, more of a hint of almond rather than an actual almond flavour. The filling was overpowered by the other layer of chocolate. Overall I liked the flavour but I wouldn’t have guessed it was almond. The filling was also a lot less orange than suggested on the packaging.

Banana Flavour
The banana one didn’t have a very strong banana flavour, it mainly just tasted artificial, sweet and a little like there might be a bit of alcohol in it. The filling was white, while I expected it to have a hint of yellow in it as suggested by the picture on the back of the packaging. I don’t think the chocolate went very well with the filling, this was my least favourite one.

For all of these the outer layer of chocolate was the same, which didn’t taste a lot like chocolate at all. It reminded me more of chocolate flavoured fondant, with which you cover cakes. It was very sugary and sweet.
I expected the chocolates to be wrapped, with an indication of the flavour on the wraps, individually, to prevent the melted together mess my chocolates turned into.
