Bourbon Mini Lumonde Crepe Cookies Caramel

Mini Lumonde is the full-size Lumonde reduced to about two-thirds the weight per stick — 4.8 g against 7.4 g — and that changes how you eat it.

The standard Lumonde is a two-bite object that shatters and scatters.

These are a single bite, which contains the damage, and at 24 kcal each they invite the kind of steady one-after-another grazing the big bag format is built around. There are a lot of them in here.

The caramel is the other change.

Where the original Lumonde uses a restrained cocoa cream, Bourbon wraps these layered crepe cookies in caramel cream, and the flavour goes warmer and more buttery — toasted sugar rather than cocoa, with the caramel powder and whole milk powder giving it a milky depth.

A small amount of cocoa powder and cocoa butter still runs underneath, which keeps it from tipping into pure sweetness.

Bourbon describes the effect as kōbashii, the word Japanese uses for the toasted, nutty aroma of things browned by heat.
