A Sweet Surprise: The Pikmin x Godiva Collaboration in Japan

I always knew Japan was a Pikmin heaven, and this was further confirmed by the recent Japan-exclusive Pikmin x Godiva collaboration. This launch featured an assortment of fruit-themed chocolates, with each truffle showcasing a red, yellow, or blue Pikmin on its surface. Each chocolate had a succulent, fruity core—especially delicious for spring!

I discovered this collaboration at the Godiva in Chiyoda–Akihabara in January 2025. The storefront was impressive, and seeing a niche brand like Pikmin out in the wild—especially in partnership with a popular food brand—felt surreal, particularly as an American. Sightings like this are quite rare in the U.S.

Of course, I had to get one of each item, including the set that came with three zipper pouches. Since I spent a certain amount of yen, the employee even threw in a free Godiva blanket (not pictured)! But the real highlight was definitely the chocolates.

The chocolate boxes came in two sizes: a small, flower-shaped box and a larger, standard rectangular one.

The rectangular GODIVA x PIKMIN chocolate truffle set featured a solid milk chocolate bar, a red Pikmin truffle filled with dark chocolate, a yellow one with white chocolate, and a blue one with apple and strawberry! All in all, it was a tasty experience, memorable for its cute packaging, fun flavors, and Pikmin theme.

The larger rectangular box also included three adorable Pikmin pouches. Each is a different size and features a unique design. Conveniently, they all have zippers to keep your items secure. What should I store in these cute containers?
