This is an interesting Pocky flavor that has a layer of white chocolate and a layer of vanilla mousse chocolate on a cocoa flavored pretzel stick, so it feels a little fancier than your average pack. If you've ever wished for a thicker chocolate-to-pretzel ratio then this is perfect for that. There's a noticeable, very pleasant vanilla aroma to the product as soon as you open the packet, so I appreciated that as well. I love that you get two individually sealed packets per box, which means that you can either share a packet with someone else, or keep it to enjoy later.

I'm sure some people probably prefer a more balanced pretzel stick to chocolate ratio -- if that's you, then you might find the chocolate coating on this to feel a bit too thick. This pack is also more expensive than your standard Pocky pack, coming in at just a touch over 300 yen. That's pretty pricey IMO, even though it does feel like a bit more of a luxury product -- I don't know that I would say it's that much more satisfying than your regular ol' Pocky, though. They are fun though for something different, and if you like white chocolate and vanilla you'll probably love these! Happy eating!
