5 Best-Tasting CNY Goodies in Singapore to try in 2023!

Chinese New Year arrives soon which means it’s time to start stocking up and feasting on some seriously addictive snacks.

Speaking of snacks, if you are looking to try something different this year, we have got good news – some of our favourite CNY goodies just got extra interesting, flavourful and tempting, and you are going to be spoilt for choice!

Here are some of our must-try picks from this season. We think you’ll love them too!

Pineapple tarts

5 Best-Tasting CNY Goodies in Singapore to try in 2023!

Ding Bakery’s Melt-in-the-Mouth Pineapple Balls

What’s Chinese New Year without these melt-in-your-mouth sweet and buttery tarts?! A uniquely Singaporean delicacy that is said to have originated in Peranakan Chinese households, pineapple tarts are comprised of a buttery biscuit base topped with a dollop of pineapple jam.

If you are looking for the best pineapple tarts in town, let us tell you that the traditional open faced Nyonya Pineapple Tarts and Melt-in-the-Mouth Pineapple Balls from Ding Bakery have long been crowd favourites. In fact, for fans of the buttery pineapple tart pastry, they even offer Pineapple Balls without filling!

This year, they have gone a step further and come up with these six really innovative flavours:

  • Melt-In-Your-Mouth Salted Egg Pineapple Ball
  • Melt-In-Your-Mouth Matcha Pineapple Ball
  • Melt-In-Your-Mouth Charcoal Pineapple Ball
  • Melt-In-Your-Mouth Taro Blueberry Ball
  • Premium Melt-In-Your-Mouth Mango Pineapple Ball
  • Melt-In-Your-Mouth Pandan Pineapple Ball

Do note that these tarts are handmade and homemade, and contain zero preservatives, which make them extra special.

Kueh bangkit

Ding Bakery’s Kueh Bangkit

A Chinese New Year favourite, Kueh bangkit are delicate coconut-flavoured tapioca cookies that literally melt in the mouth.

For a taste of homemade goodness, you’ve got to try Ding Bakery’s version. They also offer unique flavours such as pandan, crispy flower and gula melaka.

If you are a cookie-lover (who isn’t?), there are plenty of other options too like Almond Cookies, Cashew Nut Cookies, and Peanut Cookies.

Prawn Rolls

5 Best-Tasting CNY Goodies in Singapore to try in 2023!

Ding Bakery’s Hae Bee Hiam Prawn

If you love savoury snacks, prawn rolls are a must-try. This crunchy snack is made of thin dumpling skins rolled around spicy dried prawn sambal (hae bee hiam) and then deep fried.

You can get your fill of Hae Bee Hiam Prawn Rolls here.

Crispy Fish Skin

Here’s another one for the spice lovers. Ding bakery’s version is super crispy and fried to perfection, and seasoned with fiery hot mala spice.

Love Letters

Like pineapple tarts, “Love Letters” are also “Made in Singapore”! Also known as kueh kapit, love letters are made from a batter of rice, tapioca flour, coconut milk, sugar and eggs.

Here’s a fun fact behind how this delicacy got its name. Apparently, lovers would roll their secret letters into these snacks and pass them on. The “letter” would then be eaten, destroying all evidence of communication.
