Tiramisu Toppo

Something BETTER than POCKY? NO WAY. After reading the latest review from Pocky Watch, I just HAD to try out Lotte Toppo. I dropped by the local T&T later that night and checked out the shelf with all the glorious Pocky treats. Naturally, I’ve tried all of the Pocky flavours available there :P. I tried looking for the basic chocolate Toppo, but couldn’t find anything besides strawberry and tiramisu. I grabbed the tiramisu package thinking it would be more like chocolate, and headed home, anxiously waiting to try out what could be BETTER than Pocky.

Tiramisu Toppo in a Cup

I eagerly ripped open the package and bit into the Toppo-y goodness. The outside tastes much more like a pretzel than Pocky, there seems to be more salt and the texture is harder than Pocky’s soft, easily broken pretzel sticks. The filling was much more powdery than expected, but I think that’s due to the fact that it’s tiramisu. Overall, it’s not bad, the pretzel part of the sticks are pretty good, but the tiramisu flavour doesn’t compare at all to Tiramisu Pocky. I’ll have to hunt down a chocolate Toppo sometime so I can compare properly =).
