    "okashi"

    has the more "sweet treat" kind of nuance.

    "oyat(s)u"

    is used more for savory snack foods.

    There are two Japanese words relating to "treat".

    One is "Gotisou". This is polite and rather formal word used when a treat is given from elder or superior to younger or inferior. Or between not yet intimate friends.

    The other is "Ogoru". This is rather casual and informal words to be used among one's peers.

    Give me the reward, please!
