When the summer heat rolls in, Korea delivers a sweet and refreshing escape with its limited-edition seasonal snacks, and Orion never disappoints. Known for reinventing classic treats with creative twists, Orion continues to charm taste buds with its summer-exclusive releases. This year, we're diving into Orion's 2025 Korean summer snack lineup. 2025 features two returning favorites and two exciting new arrivals.
Whether you're a longtime snack lover or a curious foodie, these summer-only goodies are perfect for beating the heat with flavor and fun. Here's everything you need to know.
Orion's Watermelon Choco Pie: A Juicy Twist on a Classic
First released in 2023, Orion's Watermelon Choco Pie blends the rich, fluffy layers of the iconic Choco pie with the refreshing sweetness of watermelon. The marshmallow center is subtly fruity, surrounded by a cake that's both light and spongy, coated in a crisp watermelon-infused chocolate shell. And don't worry, the "seeds" in the snack cake are actually chocolate chips.
Why It's Worth Trying:
Bright, summery flavor profile
Refreshing without being overly sweet
Fun and vibrant pink-green packaging that screams summer
💡 Snack Tip: Chill it in the fridge before eating for an extra cool bite!
Orion’s Melon Choco Pie: Creamy, Dreamy, and Perfectly Melon

Soft, melon-flavored filling with a hint of vanilla
Balanced sweetness
