Black Thunder Returns with a Crunch!

Yuraku Confectionery Co., Ltd. is excited to announce the return of the beloved Black Thunder chocolate bar, set to launch nationwide in convenience stores, supermarkets, and drugstores starting August 31, 2026. This unique chocolate bar, known for its distinctive crunchy texture, is receiving a much-anticipated renewal that takes customer feedback into account.

What’s New in Black Thunder?

The revamped Black Thunder continues to embody the notion of a small yet satisfying treat. The new slogan, "Choco-tto de, Chō-Go-hōbi!" (A little chocolate for a big reward!), captures this essence perfectly. The reformulation includes a revised ratio of two types of cocoa cookies that enhance the bar's signature crunch.

A Perfect Crunch Every Time

The key to Black Thunder’s unbeatable texture lies in its two distinct cocoa cookies. With the new adjustments, the balance of these cookies has been finely tuned to elevate the crunchy experience that fans love. Each bite delivers a delightful and satisfying crunch—perfectly combined with a plain biscuit base that complements the chocolate coating.

Flavor Upgrade for Everyday Satisfaction

The chocolate flavor has also seen a delightful makeover. The newly introduced light cocoa mass flavor enhances the harmony between the chocolate and biscuit, providing a gourmet experience that is both rich and light. This dual approach ensures that every crunch is packed with flavor, appealing to both chocolate lovers and snackers alike.

Chocolate-Centric Design Revolution

In addition to flavor enhancements, the packaging of Black Thunder has undergone a transformation. The striking new design highlights the slogan prominently, ensuring it resonates with consumers. Some packages will even feature a limited edition design that emphasizes the reward aspect of enjoying a Black Thunder. Plus, the inner packaging has been modified for easy opening, making it more convenient for on-the-go indulgence.
