English version / 英文版: “Valentine’s Day, White Valentine’s Day,” “Chinese Valentine’s Day. There are so many Valentine’s Days in a year. How many Valentine’s days do you want to celebrate!?” Someone once snapped at me on one of the many valentine’s days in a year I was looking forward to. But as you all are familiar, I am born a hopeless romantic. In recent years, there has been too much chaos bearing down upon us on this island, dragging us down and sapping all our energies. At times like this, I’m proud to be a hopeless romantic. We could all use some excuse to lift ourselves up. So I seize every opportunity to celebrate: Let alone holidays, I even celebrate every reason I can think of: A one-month milestone of not faceplanting, a week of no bruising, no accidents. It’s my way of creating a little fun in life and letting life take a breather from the depressing times. This year’s White Day, I had a romantic encounter with “FUNSIAMO,” so I did an open boxreview while spending an unforgettableWhite Valentine’s Day with my mom.
English version / 英文版: The founder named its brand with creativity, winning my heart at first sight. “-Siamo” is used first-person plural (we) present for “to be (are)” in Italian. So, “Funsiamo” “As the name implies, means “to have funtogether,” which also implies creating unforgettablememories. I just happen to know both the English and Italianlanguages, so my encounter with “Funsiamo” when White Valentine’s Day was just around the corner feels like fate. France is the most romantic country, and “éclair” is a famousdessert in French cuisine. Therefore, for White Day, we did an openbox for Funsiamo‘s DIY Assorted Chocolate Éclair Vanille HomeKit for some romance. “Assorted Chocolate Éclair Vanille” is one of Funsiamo‘s “HomeKit” products that customers can easily DIY at home.

Funsiamo HomeKit繽紛手指泡芙居家體驗盒製作感想 / Funsiamo Home Kit DIY Assorted Chocolate Éclair Vanille Open Box Review:
English version / 英文版: Funsiamo‘s Assorted Chocolate Éclair Vanille DIY HomeKit is straightforward and fun to make. Although the clear instructions and carefully prepared ingredients should result in zero failure rate. However, we are one disabled and one elderly baking, so the result is kind of an epic fail. My mom has a weak stomach. In Funsiamo‘s Assorted Chocolate Éclair Vanille Homekit‘s custard filling making, there is no sterilization process such as heating or other sterilization process in the instructions. We omit this step to avoid a romanticWhite Valentine’s Day turning into a “cramping brown Valentine’s Day” spent in the washroom. This could also be why our eclairs turned out as disabled as me.
