Meiji Kinoko no Yama (きのこの山) 74g — the iconic mushroom-shaped chocolate biscuit from Japan. A crispy cracker "stem" topped with a generous chocolate "cap" that combines rich cacao-forward chocolate and smooth, mellow milk chocolate.
About Meiji
Meiji (株式会社明治) is one of Japan's largest confectionery and dairy companies, founded 1916. The Meiji chocolate range — Milk Chocolate, Hi-Milk, Black, Almond, Macadamia, Apolo strawberry-chocolate, Kinoko no Yama (mushroom-shaped chocolate biscuits), and Takenoko no Sato (bamboo-shoot-shaped chocolate biscuits) — anchors the Japanese chocolate aisle. Meiji also makes the Karl and Curl cheese-puff snacks.
Kinoko no Yama is one half of Japan's beloved "Kinoko vs Takenoko" rivalry — Meiji's two long-running chocolate snacks pitted against each other in playful marketing. Pick a side, or stock both.
What makes it distinctive
- Two-textured bite — light, crispy cracker contrasts with a smooth chocolate cap.
- Two chocolates layered together — bittersweet cacao on top, mellow milk chocolate beneath.
- Cute, snap-apart mushroom shape that's instantly recognisable on Japanese snack shelves.
- Slide-open share-pack box, perfect for desks, lunchboxes, or sharing.
