Surprise! Kinder is finally set to release its popular toy-filled chocolate eggs in the US in 2018, after completely re-designing the tasty treat to meet the FDA's 'choking hazard' regulations

• In January 2018, chocolate brand Ferrero will launch Kinder Joy in the US
• The chocolate treats are a slight variation on Kinder Surprise - an egg-shaped chocolate that features a toy inside
• Kinder Surprise is currently banned in the United States, as it is considered a choking hazard per FDA regulations
• The treat is so popular that it has developed a sizable black market for collectors in the United States
  
  

  Chocolate lovers rejoice, because the incredibly popular Kinder Surprise is at last set to hit shelves in the United States, after years of being banned.

  Kinder Surprise, more casually known as a Kinder egg, is a hollow chocolate egg which contains a toy at its center; presently, more than 3.5 billion Kinder Surprise eggs are sold around the world each year.

  However the United States has remained a notable exemption to those sales statistics, as the wildly popular treat is currently banned. FDA regulations consider the toy nested within the egg to be a choking hazard.

  Since 1938, the United States has upheld a ban on all candies with embedded toys. 

  Now, a slight variation of the Kinder Surprise will allow the treat to bypass these regulations with ease and is set to go on sale in the US in January 2018.

  The updated treat, called the Kinder Joy, features two individually packaged halves: one half contains chocolate cream and crispy wafer balls, while the other half contains the highly-coveted toy. 

  This version of the treat is already being sold in India, China, and Korea.

  Though Kinder Surprise have been outlawed in the United States since their 2001 debut, that hasn't stopped Americans from attempting to get their hands on the prized candy.

  Even a cursory Google search reveals a slew of forums discussing complex import tactics for Kinder Surprise eggs, and websites willing to defy customs and ship the eggs for a hefty fee. 

  Though the chocolate is quite literally fun and games, US customs appears to take Kinder Surprise violations quite seriously. The Independent reported that when one of its staffers was caught with the eggs in their luggage, they were fined a total of $12,000 for 10 eggs.

  Ferrero SpA, Kinder's parent company, presently sells many of its other products in the United States, including Ferrero Rocher and Tic Tacs.  

  Judging by many of the enthused social media reactions to the Kinder Joy news, fans of the toy-filled chocolate have been awaiting this day for some time.

  With Kinder Joy, Ferrero will likely be adding a crown jewel to its bevy of popular products - and a hefty increase to its already astronomical $10 billion in year profits.
