On March 21st candy company Morinaga is going to begin selling the popular Chupa Chups lollipops in a more bite-size size. The suggested retail price for a bag of 14 is 198 yen (about $2.37).
These little suckers will have a diameter of about 20mm, compared to about 26mm for the regular size. Each bag contains four flavors. You’ll find three each of melon soda, strawberry and grape, while there are five of the most popular flavor, cola. According to the company, you need 30 minutes to enjoy a regular size Chupa Chups, but a mini will only take you 15 minutes.
