Nosh of the Day: black cakes

From Muji (which as I mentioned, sells food in Asian branches). In fact the cakes are black sesame (黒ごま) with something muffins. If anyone can read the second set of characters let me know! Mildly sweet, nutty flavour with small sesame bits in. Not as scary as they look!

  1. Have you already eaten them? What do they like? The second kanji compound means Banboo Charcoal (by google translation)so I'm very interested in the taste.

  2. Thanks for the Kanji help!! The flavour was mildly sweet (not very sweet like Western cake muffins) and it had nutty taste & texture, I assume from the sesame. The kanji translation makes sense, actually, as there was a very slight charcoaly element to it. They were a little unusual but still a nice & very edible cake snack :)
