Kirby Of The Stars ChocoL Choco Collaboration Gets Box And Strawberry Shortcake Types
The release leans on the packaging as the product: the inner bag ships with a stage illustration and enough wrapper designs for buyers to arrange their own scene, which is the part that carries a candy tie-in beyond the chocolate itself.
Reporting from 1 source: Inside.
ChocoL Choco will release "Kirby of the Stars ChocoL Choco BOX" nationwide from October 19, with the single-piece type "Kirby of the Stars ChocoL Choco <Strawberry Shortcake>" at Seven-Eleven stores sequentially from October 22. The BOX has four box designs and 24 wrapper designs across two flavors; the single-piece type recreates the shortcake from the games and has 10 wrapper designs.
The BOX type is priced at 324 yen (tax included) for 12 pieces, and the single-piece type at 48 yen (tax included). Box designs total four: Kirby's inhaling, chewing, and smiling expressions plus Waddle Dee's face. Wrappers total 24 designs inside the box, covering Kirby, King Dedede, items, and star blocks, and the inner bag prints a stage illustration so the wrappers can be arranged into a scene.
The two BOX flavors are the standard biscuit and a crunchy strawberry with waffle crunch. The Strawberry Shortcake single, which recreates the cake from the games, has 10 wrapper designs including Kirby, Waddle Dee, King Dedede, and Meta Knight. Sales on the ChocoL Choco official online shop are scheduled to start October 19 at 12:00 noon. The single-piece type may not reach every store and ends when sold out.
