Pocky
Special regional-exclusive release uses ingredients from the only sake brewery in the 23 wards of Tokyo.
Maker of Pocky reminds us that life moves fast, but it’s the slow moments that make it beautiful.
Japan’s favorite chocolate pretzel snack is set to add some sweet sophistication to your next occasion to crack open a bottle of red.
This limited-edition flavour tastes just like the matcha you would get at a formal Japanese tea ceremony!
Now there’s a delicious vegetable and two more fruit flavours to add to our Pocky collection.
Known traditionally as “Pocky Day” in Japan, 11 November may become “Good Shopping Day” before long.
Because after a hard day at the office, there’s nothing like unwinding with a glass of bourbon and a chocolate-covered pretzel stick.
Take an inside peek into the production process of Pocky, the beloved Japanese snack which has found its way into supermarkets around the world.
Popular Japanese snack Pocky has had a makeover and they’re now available heart-shaped and in “lucky” blue for a limited time!
‘Tis the season to eat Pocky! Celebrate Pocky Day with these amusing (and tantalizing) tweets from Japan!
You might expect working at one of Japan’s largest candy makers means every day at the office is filled with smiles, sunshine, and sentiments as sweet as the products they sell. But the management at Osaka-based Glico’s mood is downright sour these days, as the company claims rival Lotte’s new product is such a thinly veiled copy of one of Glico’s hits that it’s a slap in the face.
The company is in no mood to let this one slide, either, which is understandable since some say Lotte has been ripping off Glico for more than 30 years.
