Family Mart stores have a few Snoopy-themed collaboration items on their shelves at the moment, and this Charlie Brown Chocolate Banana Roll Cake is one of them. Before I even talk about the cake, the packaging itself is super cute, with imagery of Snoopy and Charlie Brown holding a roll cake on a plate. The cake itself has a very fun appearance, with a wavy/zig-zaggy pattern on the top, which is meant to be inspired by Charlie Brown's shirt. I felt that the value for money aspect was pretty good, at only 178 yen including tax -- reviewing it here on City-Cost basically pays for the product, so it's a sweet deal!

It might be a little bit of a stretch to say that the wavy/zig-zaggy pattern on the cake is Charlie-Brown-esque, but I do think that it's better than the donut which really did just feel like a normal donut you could get anywhere. Overall, I think this is a tasty cake for anyone who likes the chocolate and banana flavor combo, and I think the cute packaging and the solid value for money aspect will mean that it sells well. It's only a limited-time thing, so if it sounds appealing to you, be sure to head in to your nearest Family Mart store sooner rather than later!
