Orion Choco-Pie is a world-renowned snack originally created by the South Korean company Orion Confectionery in 1974. Inspired by similar marshmallow-filled chocolate treats found in the United States, Orion perfected the recipe into a two-layered chocolate-coated cake with a marshmallow center. It has since become a cultural icon, particularly in East Asia and Russia.
The specific product shown is the 'Vienna Cake' (Венский торт) variety, featuring an apricot filling and chocolate cake layers. This version is widely produced and distributed in the Russian Federation and surrounding CIS countries. While the brand is South Korean in origin, Orion operates large-scale manufacturing facilities globally, including major plants in Russia (Tver and Novosibirsk), Vietnam, and South Korea, to serve local consumer tastes and regional distribution networks.
Today, Orion Corp remains an independent global food company headquartered in Seoul. It continues to dominate the choco-pie market internationally, maintaining its position as the ultimate owner and primary manufacturer of the brand through various international subsidiaries.
