Snacks

(1) Instant Matcha Latte

For fans of matcha, MUJI’s Instant Matcha Latte ($6.90) delivers an authentic taste of Japanese matcha balanced with the right amount of creamy milk. All you have to do is pour in the right amount of water, stir, and enjoy the smooth, frothy texture of cafe-style matcha in less than 5 minutes! This will be a perfect mid-day pick-me-up on your WFH days.

(2) Strawberry Chocolate Marshmallows

Indulge in the perfect balance of sweet and fruity! Each Strawberry Chocolate Marshmallow ($1.90) is soft, fluffy and filled with a rich-strawberry flavoured center and coated in smooth chocolate. As a sweet treat for sharing, this will be great to snack on while working or while you are just having a lazy day lounging on the sofa.

(3) Shrimp Bisque

Seafood lovers that are too busy to go through all the prep work for a savoury seafood soup will really appreciate this Shrimp Bisque ($3.30). All you have to do is pop it in the microwave, cut the seal of the bag, transfer it to a bowl and now you will get to enjoy a rich and creamy soup with minimal effort! Ideal for quick dinners after a busy day or a quick, gourmet treat.

(4) Pasta Sauce Cod Roe

Mentaiko pasta has been all the craze lately in Japanese-fusion cuisine but who knew it can be even easier (and more cost-efficient!) to make it at home? The Cod Roe Sauce ($4.30) comes in a sealed packet, in which you immerse in boiling water for 5 to 7 minutes, stir it in with your boiled pasta and there you have it — your homemade mentaiko pasta in less than 20 minutes. If you are in the mood to elevate your dish, top it off with some shrimp and seaweed for a touch of sophistication and you will barely notice the difference from restaurant-quality pasta.

(5) Mini Ramen Tom Yam Kung

Something tomyam flavoured may be the last thing you will expect to see in a Japanese store but hear me out. This Mini Ramen ($1.90) can be eaten in two ways. First, you can eat it raw like a MAMEE snack or you can also cook it like typical instant noodles by simply pouring hot water. Yup, no need for seasoning because the noodles are already well-seasoned with tasty tomyum flavour! Hot tip: add a runny egg to these ramen noodles and it’ll taste almost identical to those Thai MAMA hotpot noodles.  

(6) Matcha-flavoured Mochi Daifuku

If you are ever lucky enough to spot these in a MUJI store, don’t think, just cart it! The Matcha-Flavoured Mochi Daifuku are like a rare Pokemon because we have only seen it in stores once or twice and have been hunting it down ever since. For matcha lovers, they are quite literally the best sweet treat at MUJI. The texture of the mochi daifuku has a cloud-like softness and fluffiness while the sweetness of the matcha complements it perfectly. 

(7) Radish Chips

On a diet and looking for a guilt-free crispy snack to munch on in front of the TV? These Radish Chips ($3.60) are light and crispy, packed with the natural zing of fresh radishes so you can snack away without feeling the guilt that would come with regular potato chips!

Household Items
