The description
This product is the new milk white choco pie, and it's a limited time only offering from the Lotte brand. It was purchased at my local independent supermarket for 200 yen.
The good
This is a fun new take on the classic choco pie, and I feel like it's a nice release for the winter season...maybe that's just because the pack has an illustration of a polar bear on it, but hey ;) The inside of the product still has a layer of cream and the cake pieces, but the outer has white chocolate instead of regular ol' milk chocolate. I actually think the white chocolate works really well if you're looking for something a little sweeter! Price-wise I feel like it's pretty reasonable -- not a bargain but not exorbitantly priced, either.
The not so good
As I mentioned above, the white chocolate gives this a noticeable extra sweetness compared to the original choco pie product. I personally liked that about it, but I know some people that aren't big fans of white chocolate because of that. Obviously, don't purchase it if you're not a white chocolate fan! ;) Overall, a fun, tasty, and wintery-feeling addition to the choco pie lineup. Keep an eye out for it at your nearest supermarket or convenience store if it sounds appealing to you. Happy eating, and enjoy!
