Choco-Pie

When I lived in Japan a few years ago, I discovered these things called custard cakes. I called them "Japanese twinkies". They were these sponge cakes filled with cream, and I loved them. I can't really stand Twinkies, but Japanese custard cakes, I will eat an entire box, in an afternoon.

They have something similar here in Korea, but I can't really tell what flavor they are [this is where being illiterate can make life difficult!]. We did, however, discover Choco-Pies. These are a chocolate coated sponge cake with a marshmallow filling.




And if you'll note, the photo above matches pretty closely to the photo on the package. And yes, I ate this for breakfast today. With a glass of cola to chase it.
