Koko Kringles

Koko Kringles are a popular chocolate bar in the Nancy Drew game series. It is a product of Wickford Snacks, a company that makes chocolate, cheese, and various other candies. From its debut in Secret of the Scarlet Hand, the Koko Kringles became a staple object and one of the most recurring in Nancy's world. Though its primary form is a chocolate bar, Koko Kringles have been made in the form of other chocolate foods, including ice cream and chocolate syrup.

In many later games, Nancy can not only pick up Koko Kringles that she finds, but eat them, too.
