When you look at the sweets shelves at convenience stores, there are many products that have "melting" in their product names. It has a texture that ranks among the most popular among many, so it may be that each company is developing a melting product by competing with each other.

So, at the time of writing the article (a certain day in December 2016), I ate and compared the 6 "melting" sweets that were lined up at the convenience store. Let's evaluate the degree of melting on a scale of "★"!

◆ Comparison of eating "melting" sweets

1. 7-ELEVEN "Melting almond tofu" Cupped sweets "Melting almond tofu" sold at 7-ELEVEN (154 yen, tax included, same below). It is a simple almond tofu without any mixture.



It's so fluffy that it keeps its shape when it's scooped up! With just a little pressure on the upper chin, it liquefies and flows into the back of the throat. Creamy but modest in sweetness and refreshing aftertaste. The handmade texture and the apricot kernel scent are authentic.


Melting time ★★★★ ★ (almost liquid!)

2. Lawson "Melting Eclairs" Lawson's chilled sweets "Melting Eclairs" (140 yen). The fragrantly baked choux pastry is filled with cream that combines custard, milk, and whipped cream using "Kiyora egg". The surface is coated with bitter chocolate.



As you know, the dough doesn't melt (although it's good to melt in the mouth!). The cream inside is melting. When you bite into it, plenty of Toro Toro cream overflows into your mouth. The mellow richness blends with the bittersweetness of chocolate and is delicious!


Degree of melting ★★★ ☆☆ (The dough does not melt)

3. Lawson "Melting Tiramisu" Another from Lawson, "Melting Tiramisu" (280 yen). Hokkaido mascarpone, cream cheese, tiramisu cream made with cream using Hokkaido milk, and biscuits soaked with plenty of coffee are layered. It seems that a little Marsala wine is added to the aroma.



Not only the fluffy cream, but also the biscuits that have been soaked in coffee are the best! Each layer melts and the sweetness and bitterness melts and spreads in the mouth with a time lag. Specialty store level deliciousness.


Degree of melting ★★★★ ☆ (Biscuit melts in your mouth)

4, Famima "Big Melting Tiramisu" From FamilyMart, a family-sized "Big Melting Tiramisu" (598 yen) is an entry. Tiramisu mousse made with Italian mascarpone and biscuits with coffee syrup are layered. Plenty of cream and cocoa toppings.



You can feel the bitterness of cocoa and coffee and the richness of mascarpone. The overall impression of creams and biscuits is more "fluffy" than "smooth". Compared to Lawson's tiramisu, Lawson's biscuits are more enthusiastic and may melt in the mouth a little faster.


Degree of melting ★★★★ ☆ (closer to “fluffy”)

5, Famima "Kiln-roasted melting pudding" FamilyMart "Kiln-yaki melting pudding" (150 yen), which is popular for its simple and basic taste. The pudding made from pure fresh cream from Hokkaido is carefully steamed to prevent uneven baking.



Only the surface layer is baked slightly hard, but the pudding just below it is loosely trotting! I tried drinking it without chewing and it was easy to drink. The egg flavor remains strong in the aftertaste.


Degree of melting ★★★★ ☆ (like custard cream)

6. Famima "Horoniga Coffee Jelly" The last one is "Horoniga Coffee Jelly" (198 yen), a sweet supervised by FamilyMart's RIZAP. We picked up the subtitle "Melting Cream " of the product name and added it to the lineup.



There is plenty of fluffy cream on the top, and the first bite does not reach the coffee jelly. When I hurriedly spread only the cream, it disappeared softly in an instant. It's definitely Toro Toro!

The coffee jelly with moderate elasticity is Churun! It's refreshing and refreshing. Firmly bitter, the moment when it mixes with the mellow cream in the mouth is blissful.


Every time it melts ★★★ ☆☆ (Cream melts!)

◆ Conclusion

This victory will be ... 7-ELEVEN's "Melting Annin Tofu" !

Most of the other sweets had melted cream, but since cream is a liquid in the first place, I decided that Tofu's almond tofu was quite excellent even though I didn't compete there. If you want to melt, please try it.
