Urutoragaru Turns a Halloween Candy Kit Into a Four-Stall Festival on the Desk
The chocolate banana came out best of the four, and the streamer finished the tasting close to tears over a first home-cooked meal.
AOGIRI HIGHSCHOOL — Urutoragaru spent most of a Halloween stream building a festival stall out of a children’s *chiiku gashi*, or educational candy kit, finishing all four treats and calling the chocolate banana the best of them.
The streamer said there had been no plan for the day until that morning. With the camera unable to move to the kitchen, the kit was chosen because it could be made at the desk using only water. The box held four items: a chocolate banana, shaved ice, a corn on the cob and a candy apple. The streamer opened with a joke about playing the vendor and began with the candy apple, since the instructions listed it first.
“Science is amazing.” — Urutoragaru, as the chocolate sauce came together
The desk soon took the strain. Powder spilled while the apple mix was being poured, the blue shaved-ice syrup skidded toward the edge as it was tipped over the ice, and later in the stream something spilled on the desk again. The corn candy took two tries to coat in its sugar beads, and the shaved ice needed about 100 stirs before it turned flaky. The banana mix gave off such a strong banana smell that the streamer said it carried across the room, and when the chocolate sauce formed from a dry powder, the reaction was “science is amazing.” All four were done a little before the 1:19 mark.
In the tasting, the shaved ice tasted like crushed ramune and the corn was a grape-flavored coated candy. The apple was gummy-like. The chocolate banana had the texture of a sponge cake with no powdery taste, and the streamer said it was the best chocolate banana they had had. The streamer then recalled making a pot-au-feu for a grandmother as a first dish, and said the memory brought tears.
Chat answered the powder spill and the syrup near-miss with jokes, and a burst of applause filled the screen when the sweets were finished; three Super Chats came in. The streamer said dinner that night had been fried chicken from KFC, and that the kit might become a go-to snack because making it takes about an hour and a half. The streamer said a repeat in 2027 is possible and that one more stream was wanted before the day ended, with nothing yet decided.
