As you can see in the picture, these appear to be ice cream cones. And they sort of are... They're almost astronaut ice cream cones. The cone part is just standard ice cream cone, although it's much skinnier (about five inches long, but not even an inch diameter at its widest). Inside, there is... stuff. Hmm. You know, I've been trying to figure out what it is, but as I sit here tasting it, I think it might actually just plain be chocolate, but it's whipped with tons of air, giving it a very light, fluffy consistency. They fill it all the way to the bottom, no gaps, which I appreciate. Although the filling is technically more air than it is food.
A word of warning: This is my second Caplico purchase. This one went great, but my first time (a couple weeks ago, along with the Noisy Lion), I got it shipped from Japan, and it was basically empty cones, with a few shriveled chocolate bits rattling around in them. That is, as I saw other people warn in their Amazon reviews, what can happen if your Caplico is shipped a long way in the middle of summer. These are fragile cuisine! That's why I wanted to try them again, and it is so much nicer to experience them fully functional.
There are 3 flavors in each box of Caplico - White chocolate on top with chocolate down inside, strawberry 'chocolate' on top with chocolate down inside, and chocolate all the way through. I think you get 3 of each flavor. I'm never a fan of mixing fruit flavors with chocolate, but the strawberry one is still pretty enjoyable, and the other flavors are quite good.
So it's good! It's not my favorite item I got, but I am always interested in chomping another Caplico, and each one is a pretty substantial size, unlike most of the other candies. I rate Caplico 8.5/10 Yums.
