Strawberry Pocky

Pocky is a Japanese biscuit stick coated in chocolate. There are many different flavours of Pocky in Japan including Strawberry Pocky which made its debut in 1977. This is my favourite Strawberry Pocky and is called tsubu tsubu strawberry. It is strawberry flavoured chocolate with pieces of dried strawberry. It has a light sweet taste and is very addictive. I enjoy the sweat taste of the strawberry sometimes as opposed to some of the more bitter chocolate varieties.

Tsubu Tsubu Strawberry Pocky


This is what it looks like. You can see the pieces of dried stawberry.

    Thanks AdelaideBen, sounds like you need an iced cold VB.

    Thanks Lina, Pocky and Fran look similar in appearance but there are some differences. Pocky is made by Glico while Fran is made by Meiji. Fran is thicker than Pocky and uses chocolate mousse. The flavours are also different and in some cases I do prefer Fran over Pocky. I will write about Fran very soon.
