Glico Bisco Matcha Milk グリコ ビスコ 抹茶ミルク


Bisco is a brand that has been around since 1933, they're made by Glico, maker of Pocky and other much loved snack brands.

The packaging of Bisco always contains a child, because these biscuits are primarly for children. This is the latest flavour of Bisco - Matcha Milk or green tea and milk.

 

From the Bisco website, listing the new flavours, strawberry and match milk

Each biscuit is 3.5 cm long and 2 cm wide. It has a layer of green matcha milk cream sandwiched in the middle. The smell of the cream is very strong and very much like matcha. The biscuit is very soft and crunchy and the cream is soft and sweet. The biscuit and cream are a match(a) made in heaven because the matcha is very pronounced and you really get a strong flavour coming through in each chew.

The size of these biscuits means they are great for little hands, but also great for diet control. Each pack contains 5 of these biscuits, and the pack itself is small enough to fit in a lunch box or a zippered part of a backpack or handbag.

I recommend these if you want a small snack or your kiddlywinks like green tea, they're very enjoyable.

That is one Bisco flavor I have never tried. Looks delicious. Will have to pick up a pack or two. By the way, can Haru eat tamago-ball yet? I think it is a great snack for motor skills and for easy eating since they melt in the mouth. Probably something that is not found in Australia too often. I could send some down for you if you like. Take care Kelly and catch up again soon. btw, nice to see you blogging again regularly. jason

Haru has just started solids, puree'd fruit and veggies. What is the youngest that babies can have tamago ball? :) I've never actually seen them here, I'd love to get some from you Jason :)

Oh, I am all about Bisco, and matcha Bisco sounds divine! I hope that my future child will give matcha a chance.

Does anyone know if it's possible to buy these biscuits online? Got addicted while I was in Japan and have serious cravings now!

Patricia, I'm pretty sure these were a limited edition, but you may still be able to find them in Japanese grocers if you have any near you?
Sorry I couldn't be of more help.
