UHA Mikakuto Shio no Hana is a caramel candy with chocolate filling. A tasty caramel comes first, and a chocolate next.
The caramel is made of a selected milk roasted for a long time resulting in rich aroma and delicate taste. In addition, caramel is seasoned with a quality Lorraine rock salt from France, giving the caramel plenty of umami and spicy punch.
What makes this caramel Japanese is it includes shio-koji (salted rice malt). With this traditional Japanese condiment, it provides excellent contrast between sweet and salty tastes as if you are eating a salted chocolate.
