    Original Pocky Flavors

    1. Original Pocky

    These extra-thin Pocky are a take on the original Pocky but are, you guessed it, much thinner. They’re the same flavor as the classic Chocolate Pocky, but the thinner biscuit allows you to enjoy more of the chocolate coating without being weighed down by the biscuit.

    3. Cacao 60% Bitter Chocolate Pocky

    The Almond Crush Pocky is one of the best-selling Pocky, probably because it’s delicious and has a pleasant texture! The original Pocky biscuit is coated in a luscious milk chocolate coating and crushed almonds. It’s a fan favorite on Japanese Taste!

    Seasonal Pocky Flavors

    You may already know that Japan is the land of seasonal flavors, so it only makes sense for there to be a ton of seasonal variations of Pocky. Seasonal flavors of Pocky are only around for certain periods of time, maybe as short as one month. If you happen to come across a seasonal flavor of Pocky when you’re in Japan, it’s definitely worth snatching up and trying for yourself.

    A similar option to the Heartful Strawberry Pocky is the Heartful Blueberry Yogurt Pocky.
