About Chocopie

Chocopie is a popular confectionery snack originating from South Korea, often enjoyed worldwide. It consists of two soft, cake-like layers sandwiching a sweet marshmallow filling, all enrobed in a chocolate coating. Though considered a treat, it is energy-dense, providing 342 calories per serving (approx. 64g), with moderate fats (12.9g) and carbohydrates (57.1g), ideal for quick energy. However, it lacks significant micronutrients like vitamin C or D, contains only 1.43g of fiber, and is relatively low in protein (2.9g). It remains a culturally iconic snack best enjoyed in moderation.
