Hi-Chew is a candy so popular, it is not only known and loved in Japan but also in the United States. Recently, little crunchy bits have been added to the classic fruit chew and of course, a special strawberry edition can be enjoyed throughout spring.

Flavorful strawberry cream in a shell of crunchy biscuit, coated by pleasantly bitter cocoa powder – such is the strawberry version of the easy to snack sweets called Pack’n Cho by Morinaga, available for 146 yen (tax excluded).

Glico’s Caplico is a classic sweet that, as it has a cone just like ice cream, is especially popular as a to-go treat. Its strawberry version offers creamy milk chocolate inside strawberry chocolate, reaching down to the very bottom of the cone and thus promising spring flavored deliciousness until the very end. One cone is available for 100 yen (tax excluded).
Ka-Julia Strawberry

Another seasonal treat by Glico is Ka-Julia strawberry, which promises both the sweet sourness of fresh strawberries, as well as the typical crunchiness of potato chips. The bite-sized strawberry snacks are actually fruit chips, a baked confectionary of fruit pulp powder, coated with a fruit pulp cream – that’s a proper strawberry snack for you! The crunchy crispiness just adds to the rich, sweet and sour strawberry flavor with every bite. One pack is available for 180 yen (tax excluded).

The gently baked biscuits by Tohato called Harvest do of course not miss out on the strawberry spring season.

This milky pink strawberry candy by Sakama was born as early as 1970 and thus is a real classic when it comes to spring’s strawberry sweets. Ichigo Miruku is the perfect harmony of the subtle sourness of strawberries and the gentle flavor of milk, all contained within one small candy. Besides the delicious flavor, the wrapping paper with tiny strawberries printed on it is also very characteristic and the symbol for spring sweets for many a Japanese person. Available for 200 yen (tax excluded).
Koyuki – Powder Snow Strawberry
![Koyuki – Powder Snow Strawberry](https://rimage.gnst.jp/livejapan.com/public/article/detail/a/00/01/a0001042/img/en/a0001042_parts_58a69590db03f.jpg?20170605122751&q=80)
Brought to you by Lotte, Koyuki – Powder Snow Strawberry for 216 yen (tax included) is made with 6% of flavorful strawberry juice! The core of the candy is filled with strawberry-flavored powder that’ll melt in your mouth like the powdery snow the sweet delicacy is named after. There are two kinds of packages, and when laid down next to each other, they form a little strawberry heart. Close your eyes and enter a world of strawberry snow!
Petit Bouche – Fragrant Strawberry
![Petit Bouche – Fragrant Strawberry](https://rimage.gnst.jp/livejapan.com/public/article/detail/a/00/01/a0001042/img/en/a0001042_parts_58a695a349126.jpg?20170605122751&q=80)
Lotte’s Petit Bouche is bite-sized, making feasting on them particularly easy and convenient. Generally, this sweets creation is filled with a soft chocolate mousse, but Lotte released a Petit Bouche – Fragrant Strawberry” version for 237 yen (tax included). The cocoa cake goes wonderfully with the sweet and sour flavor of strawberries – our recommendation is to chill the little delights, which will make the chocolate particularly crunchy.
Custard Cake – Fragrant Strawberry
