LOTTE’s classic candies such as Koala’s March, Toppo, and Pie no Mi—sweets that everyone has eaten at least once—have now collaborated with Sanrio characters! The realistic design is so convincing that you might mistake it for an actual candy box. Let’s check out these playful items filled with fun.

Hello! This is Sekai, a virtual reporter for Perfect World Tokyo!
Today, I’m introducing pencil cases that are a collaboration between popular Sanrio characters and LOTTE candies. Familiar candy packages like Koala’s March and Pie no Mi have transformed into pencil cases! Notice the unique design that adds the cuteness of Sanrio characters to these well-known designs.

Hello Kitty × Koala’s March
First, I’m introducing a pencil case inspired by “Koala’s March,” famous for its hexagonal prism-shaped package. With a design that perfectly recreates that distinctive shape, this is just too cute!

On the surface, chocolate biscuits and Kitty-chan are designed. If you look closely, you’ll find one of the koalas wearing a matching ribbon like Kitty-chan’s! I absolutely love this kind of playfulness!

The sleek, vertical form stands upright on its own, so it doesn’t take up much space in a bag or on a desk. Since the design looks like Koala’s March from every 360-degree angle, it catches the eye just by placing it casually on your desk. It’s also fun to feel like you have an actual candy sitting there. Size: 16cm × 8cm × 7cm

Kuromi & My Melody × Ghana
Next is a design inspired by “Ghana Chocolate,” famous for its red package of chocolate bars. The detail where the packaging corner is peeled back and you can see a glimpse of the silver foil and chocolate is so realistic and cute!

The collaboration characters are the duo of Kuromi and My Melody. Is this a sweet chocolate time during relaxing home hours? Kuromi with her tongue out is absolutely charming.

The back is also printed with a cute atmosphere filled with hearts scattered all around.

The pencil case opens and closes in a wide C-shape, making it easy to take things in and out. The vivid “Ghana Red” really stands out, so it’s recommended to use it not just as a pencil case but also as a pouch. Size: 9cm × 20cm × 3cm

Pochacco × Toppo
Next, I’m introducing another design inspired by “Toppo,” another thin box-type candy. While faithfully recreating the actual package, it has a more subdued color palette than the previous two items, giving it a clean impression.

Floating in a sea of chocolate is Pochacco, the collaboration character. The “everyday” scene of tearing open the inner bag inside the box to get to the Toppo is so relatable, it makes you chuckle.

It’s the same box-type style as Ghana, but the key difference is the position of the zipper. Unlike the Ghana pencil case which opens widely on the long side, this one is a vertical box type, so the top opens widely.

The sides have accordion folds, so it opens wide and you can see all the way to the back. With the vertical design, pens are less likely to go missing, and it’s recommended for those who want to use it neatly and smartly. Size: 19cm × 10.5cm × 3cm

Cinnamoroll × Pie no Mi
Finally, here’s a design inspired by “Pie no Mi,” that tempting candy you just can’t help grabbing. The ribbon band with the text “Baked crispy and crunchy!” is also meticulously recreated, showing real attention to detail.

The collaboration character is Cinnamoroll. Reading while eating Pie no Mi—how sinfully delightful. I think I’d go through a whole box!

The back also features a large illustration of Pie no Mi. The dream-sized abundance makes you feel excited about unlimited snacking!

Like the actual package, this box-type pencil case has substantial thickness, so you can store not just pens but other stationery items too. With a double zipper that opens wide, you can easily see the contents and take things in and out. It’s also perfect to use as a makeup pouch or small item storage. Size: 11cm × 14.5cm × 5cm

This time I introduced the Sanrio × LOTTE collaboration pencil cases, and every design had such high reproduction quality that people nearby would definitely do a double-take. Why not choose your favorite from these four based on your favorite character or candy? Be sure to check them out!
