KitKat Wasabi: An import from Japan, this KitKat has a (overly sweet) white chocolate exterior covering a wasabi-cream wafer. The spicy flavor is surprisingly palatable, but the white chocolate dominates. 2.0/5.0

Divino Apulian peach gelato: The cubed package contains a palm-sized peach filled with gelato on the inside. After waiting about 10 minutes for the dessert to defrost, you separate the halves of the fruit and can scoop out the gelato with an included miniature plastic shovel. The gelato is very good, with a fresh, concentrated peach flavor. The peach itself is slightly tart and not very sweet, but eaten together with the gelato, the entire dessert is well balanced. From Southern Italy. 4.0/5.0

Barbara's peanut butter puffins: The box says "tastes like dessert," and I would agree. Crunchy, large corn "pillows" that are good as a snack on its own. Substantial and filling. Is not vitamin enriched like many children's cereal but is non-GMO certified. 3.5/5.0

Ginza Tokyo Sugar Butter Sand Tree cookies: Japanese sandwich cookies with a dense, crunchy exterior (somewhat flaky when you bite through it) and a cloyingly sweet icing in the middle reminiscent of cereal milk. Nice packaging, but disappointing flavor. 2.5/5.0

Dancing Deer Baking Co. traditional gingerbread dessert bites: A seasonal treat that's substantial and moist but not overly dense. Like a nugget of spiced cake. Good ginger and molasses flavor, though the extra sugar crystals on top are unnecessary. Contains 4 servings for a little over $3, which is a good value for the Leanbox. 3.5/5.0
