Have a Nibble of Chocolate Professor Layton

Ever fancied having a nibble of Professor Layton? Well, alongside tasting his popular catalogue of games on Nintendo DS and 3DS, there's now a chance to grab the Level-5 mascot in delicious chocolate form.

The popular adventure series has been compacted into two different flavours from the makers of Pocky, Glico. Fans can sink their teeth into chocolate gateau or an oolong tea chiffon cake variety, each wrapped with characters from the series. It'll be available across Japan from January 15th till the end of March.

After munching through and sharing the chocolate treat with others, fans can also work through an included riddle card for the upcoming Professor Layton and the Azran Legacies game on Nintendo 3DS.
