Number 1
Suika Bar (made by Lotte)
"Suika" means watermelon in Japanese. What's summer without watermelons!? This popsicle really looks like a slice of watermelon. The secret of its popularity are the little seeds made of chocolate. 60 yen.
Number 2
Aisu no Mi (made by Glico)
"Aisu" means ice and "Mi" means fruit or nuts in Japanese. Put the two together and you have 14 bite-sized cubes of ice in a package that costs 100 yen. Not only that there are lots of flavors to enjoy. They are really cute looking and you can eat as much as you want when you want. It comes in a blue and pink package.
Number 3
Giant Cone (made by Glico)
This is the king of ice cream cones. The combination of peanuts and chocolate is really delicious! There's also strawberry and chocolate-cookie flavors to choose from. 100 yen.
New Papico (made by Glico)
Break the end of the tube and suck out the flavored ice. You get two to a package so you can buy one and share it with your brother, sister, or friend. It comes in two varieties. The picture shows the chocolate-coffee flavor but there is also the white sour flavor.
