Product information

About

Soft, light wafers made in Japan as a snack for babies from nine months, packed two to a small bag. They melt quickly but keep a light crisp, and plenty of adults eat them too. Buy them if you want a finger snack made for babies from nine months; if you want a snack that leaves no crumbs, this is the wrong box.

On the pack: マンナウェファー (man-na wafer).

What you're getting

  • Fourteen wafers in all, two to each of seven small bags.
  • Between the wafer sheets is a thin layer of milky cream.
  • It is a sweet wafer, with sugar third on the ingredient list.
  • Expect crumbs and powder: the wafers break easily, and a small fist turns one to dust.
  • Allergens: milk, wheat and soy, and it is made on equipment shared with egg. Read the pack's own label before you rely on ours.
  • Also on the label: shell calcium, an ingredient made from ground seashells. It is not a declared allergen, and whether it carries any mollusc protein is not known, so if your child reacts to molluscs, check with your doctor first. The shortening may be made with animal fat.

As with any finger food, give it with your child sitting up and an adult watching, never lying down or while being carried on your back, and keep a drink beside it.

Ingredients

Wheat flour (made in Japan), shortening, sugar, whole milk powder, vegetable oil, potato starch, corn starch, salt

shell calcium, raising agent, emulsifier (from soy), ferric pyrophosphate, flavouring, vitamin B1, vitamin B2, vitamin D.

Our guide

How to eat it

Good to know

  • Give one wafer at a time, with your child sitting up and you watching; never while they are lying down or being carried on your back.
  • Keep a drink beside it: the maker suggests cooled boiled water or barley tea.
  • Open each small bag over a plate or tray: the two wafers are packed tight, and powder escapes as the bag tears.
  • The maker's guide is three small bags a day.

In their own words

What Japanese buyers say

  • Honestly surprised how good this is, even for an adult!

    これ、大人が食べても普通に美味しくてびっくり！

    from monolog, a Japanese review site

  • The kids like it, but powder flies when you open the bag and while eating, so the floor gets messy.

    子供は好きですが、袋を開けると粉が飛び散ったり、食べてる時にポロポロ粉が舞ったりするので床等が汚れやすいのが残念です。

    from monolog

  • A soft, fluffy sweetness, so I end up eating lots.

    やわらかくふんわりした甘みでついついたくさん食べてしまいます。

    from monolog

  • It crumbles like crazy, but it's the only baby wafer snack I've seen, and he's happy when I give it now and then!

    ものすごくボロボロするけど、ベビー用のウエハース系おやつはこれしかみたことないのでたまにあげると喜びます！

    from monolog

  • I want him to practise chewing, so the thickness and length are good.

    噛む練習をさせたいので、良い厚みと長さだと思います。

    from monolog

  • My one-year-old squeezed it to powder; it was a nightmare.

    一歳の子は握りしめて粉々にして大変だった。

    from monolog

  • Lightly sweet and easy to grab and eat, so it's gone in no time, ha.

    ほんのりな甘さで、手づかみしやすく食べやすいみたいであっという間に無くなります（笑）

    from monolog

  • The size is good too; I'd be glad if it were easier to open.

    サイズも良いです もっと開けやすくなったら嬉しいです

    from monolog

  • Handy because it's in small packs.

    小分けになってるので便利です。

    from monolog

  • I bought it as a snack for my 10-month-old, but it's quite sweet even for an adult.

    10ヶ月の子供のおやつに！と買ってみましたが、大人が食べても結構甘い。。

    from monolog

  • There's a lightly sweet cream sandwiched in, and they seem to love it.

    ほんのり甘いクリームがはさまっていて、美味しいようです。

    from monolog

  • Too light for an adult.

    大人には軽すぎました。

    from monolog

  • They went for it like no other snack, ha!

    他のお菓子とは食いつき方が違いました！笑

    from monolog

  • If there were more in it, full marks.

    もっとたくさん入っていたら満点です。

    from monolog

  • I tried one, and the nostalgic taste warmed my heart.

    試食したら懐かしい味でほっこりしました

    from monolog

  • The wafer itself has almost no taste, and there's very little cream.

    ウエハース自体に味はほぼないし、クリームかなり少なめ。

    from mognavi, a Japanese food and drink review site

  • Soft, yet a wafer with a proper crisp bite.

    柔らかいけどしっかりサクッとして食感のウエハース。

    from mognavi

  • I craved it and bought it, but it wasn't as good as I remembered.

    どうしても食べたくなって買ったが　思ったほどではなかった。

    from monolog

  • Like Hai-Hain, a Japanese baby rice cracker, it starts melting the moment it's in your mouth: a soft wafer with milk cream sandwiched in.

    こちらもハイハイン同様口に入れた瞬間から溶けていく感じ、柔らかいウェハースにミルククリームがサンド。

    from mognavi

  • The biscuit felt plain, but the wafer felt like a treat.

    ビスケットは素朴な感じでしたが、ウエハースは贅沢な気分になれた気がしました。

    from mognavi

The maker

Where it comes from

  • Morinaga
  • Tokyo
  • Founded 1899

Morinaga's Manna line began in 1930 with a milk biscuit made as a baby's first snack. The name comes from manna, the food from heaven in the Old Testament.

The wafer is the line's second product, made to melt easily in a small mouth.
