Three different JJBA Godiva chocolate sets will be produced in limited quantities. All three sets will contain chocolates featuring the series’ major characters printed on them, with both plain and filled versions of each character’s chocolate. Jonathan Joestar, Joseph Joestar, and Jotaro Kujo will be printed on pieces of dark chocolate. Meanwhile, Josuke Higashikata, Giorno Giovanna, and Jolyne Cujoh will be shown on milk chocolate morsels. For the filled chocolates, Jonathan’s will have a dark chocolate filling, Joseph’s will have a cherry filling, and Jotaro’s will have a coffee filling. Josuke’s will be filled with custard, Giorno’s with caramel, and Jolyne’s with milk chocolate. In addition, one of the sets will also contain chocolates shaped like items that play key roles in each of the anime’s parts. You can check out each of the sets below.
The first set will cost 4,320 yen (~$29) and include twelve chocolates. A Stone Mask, Red Stone of Aja, hand mark, anchor mark, ladybug emblem, and butterfly emblem will be included in the set. All six item-shaped pieces will be made of white chocolate, with the hand mark being blood orange-flavored, the anchor mark being lemon-flavored, and the butterfly emblem being purple sweet potato-flavored. The filled versions of the character chocolates will round out the set.
The second and third chocolate sets will contain only the character chocolates. The second set will cost 1,620 yen (~$11) and have the filled chocolates, while the third set will cost 864 yen (~$6) and have the plain ones. Only the third set will be sold at convenience stores.
