TokyoTreats Snack Box Review

Authentic Curated Japanese Snacks Shipped Right to Your Door

Japan saw a tourism boom in 2025. And no doubt, many foreign travelers are back at home, reminiscing about their amazing Japan travel experience.

Reliving those unforgettable memories of dressing up as a Geisha in Kyoto, eating the freshest sushi in Tsukiji Outer Market at the crack of dawn, and awing at the majestic Mount Fuji from Hakone.

Some, like yours truly, are still wondering if it’s a golden turd on top of the Asahi Beer Hall or foamy beer as intended. And which offers a better view of the Tokyo skyline, the much taller Tokyo Skytree or the shorter Tokyo Tower?

Or how about that time you and your friends and family raided a konbini for snacks found only in Japan?

There’s nothing more tangible than holding an actual direct from Japan treat in your hands to fire up the ol’memory synapses.

And that’s precisely what TokyoTreat’s Japanese snack subscription does. Their mission is to put Japanese snacks on every doorstep. And put a smile on your face.

Tokyo Treats Review
I received my snack box in a week

From the Land of the Rising Sun to the Land of Smiles

Full disclosure, TokyoTreat reached out to me about writing a review in exchange for a box jam packed with 15 authentic Japanese snacks. You’ll get an honest and unbiased review. Gonna be upfront, though it’s a box of sweet treats. It can’t go wrong.

If you don’t know by now, I live in Bangkok, Thailand.

Receiving international deliveries through the Thai post office is a crap shoot. I’m talking about three card monte on the streets of Paris, odds. Okay, I’m exaggerating here. But I have lost international packages.

I didn’t tell the lovely person who arranged the exchange about this. I didn’t want them to worry about something that might be about nothing.

Besides, there was a 70% chance it would arrive at my doorstep. Those are still pretty good odds.

And a 15% chance this snack box ends up at a random Thai postal employee’s niece’s birthday party. At least somebody would have an unforgettable birthday.

The point is, TokyoTreat got a box delivered to me. So their delivery system is on point.

First impressions

Just Like Receiving a Gift Box from Friends

Okay, I don’t have friends, so I never knew what that felt like until now.

My TokyoTreat box was in excellent condition. All snacks inside are still in their original packaging. Whoever packs boxes at TokyoTreat should get a raise. Everything’s so neat and orderly. I wonder if they had to go through some training.

I think ICHIGO Inc., the company that owns TokyoTreat, has put lots of thought into its overall packaging. I checked around and saw different boxes for different seasons with unique designs. Some boxes even contained fizzy drinks.

But Wait, I Can’t Read Japanese

Everybox has a nifty, info-packed, colorful booklet describing every item inside the box in English. Plus, you’ll learn about Japanese culture and festivals. For this instance, it was about Japan’s summer season, Matsuri! Each box is delightfully themed by season.

Nothing ever will break that jolly mood more than handing that special person a box of snacks that could potentially cause anaphylaxis. If this ever happens, apologize and promise never to do it again.

I am speaking from experience.

Because packages are written in Japanese, those with severe allergies may wonder if this is the snack that can potentially unalive them.

Fortunately, TokyoTreat is one step ahead. The handy booklet not only describes the product contents and flavor but also includes allergy warnings.

It was a bit stale… but I ate it all

How are the Treats?

I didn’t try everything inside the box, but I gotta admit, it’s pretty cool to share these snacks and treats with some of my Thai friends. Thai people love all things Japan. If you ask ten Thais how many of them want to travel to Japan, twenty will answer yes.

Also, at my age, some of these snacks, like cotton candy, will put me over the edge on the way to diabetes. So I stayed away from that. Instead, I ate the dried edamame covered in wasabi, and I loved them. I ate all the rice cracker snacks, too.

Even the doughnut, which I have to admit was stale, I still ate it all.

The box was empty within an hour.

TokyoTreat Pricing
TokyoTreat Prices

How much is a Box of TokyoTreat Goodies?

If you’re only ordering one TokyoTreat snack box, it’ll set you back $37.50. If you pre-pay six months or twelve months, the price is discounted to $33.50 and $32.50, respectively.

They ship worldwide; however, the price of shipping is not included. If you are interested in ordering, you can find the shipping cost before payment on TokyoTreat. I checked around, though, and I think the shipping price is around $12.

I also want to remind you to be aware of your country’s import laws. I am active on eBay, so I am aware that certain countries will add a sales tax for items shipped internationally.

I was reminded of this by my contact at TokyoTreat. In any case, this is something out of TokyoTreat’s hands.

Edamame bites are awesome!

Who’s TokyoTreats For?

I travel to Japan once or twice a year. Not saying that’s a lot. Just saying, while I’m there, I load up on a lot of delicious snacks. Also, there are quite a few Japan-centric stores in Bangkok selling Japanese snacks too. Not the same stuff but… It’s still Japanese candies and cookies.

That said, I think these make great gifts for Japanophiles with severe aerophobia. Or for grandparents looking to surprise their anime-loving grandkids with unique Christmas gifts.

Also for husbands who desperately need to rack up serious brownie points. Again, speaking from experience.

In conclusion, yeah, TokyoTreats is a terrific gift idea for every occasion, especially for husband who forget their wives’ birthdays.

And the look on my little one’s face says it all. She hasn’t been to Japan yet, so she’s the perfect TokyoTreat customer.

Cotton candy is her favorite

Is it Worth it?

I think it is. Not only do you get an eclectic snack assortment that you may never see or find. There’s just something about receiving a package from halfway around the world with a surprise in it.

And it must bring a little joy to know that a specially packed box of mystery Japanese goodies is waiting for you at your doorstep. And you can’t wait to tear it open to see what’s inside. And yeah, I like that.
