'Can you tell the difference?' I tried eating the 'Black Thunder Excellent' that appeared and checked the difference with Black Thunder



Yuraku Confectionery's ' Black Thunder Excellent ' will be released on Tuesday, April 22, 2025, with the claim that 'you can enjoy the gap between the appearance of Black Thunder and the sweets, but the difference when you eat it.' It has the same crunchy texture as Black Thunder, but you can enjoy the absolute chocolate feeling, so I actually tried this product sent by Yuraku Confectionery ahead of its release.

This is 'Black Thunder Excellent'.



The ingredients include semi-pure chocolate, whole wheat flour, cocoa butter, and cocoa cookies.



Each bottle contains 118kcal.



I took it out of the bag. It looks just like the familiar Black Thunder.



The back looks like this.



Compared to the regular Black Thunder (right), the Black Thunder Excellent (left) is slightly darker and has a smoother surface coating.



I cut it in half and looked at the cross section, but there was no significant difference.



When I actually tried it, the taste was completely different, with Black Thunder Excellent having a stronger chocolate flavor and a bitter taste like chocolate cake. Regular Black Thunder has a flavor and texture of about half chocolate and half cookie, but Black Thunder Excellent is about 70% chocolate and 30% cookie. If you want to try a rich and bitter chocolate flavor, I recommend Black Thunder Excellent.



The price of 'Black Thunder Excellent' is 95 yen including tax. It will be sold in limited quantities at 7-Eleven stores nationwide from Tuesday, April 22, 2025.
