Fragrant and tangy, the new melt-in-the-mouth Osmanthus Cranberry Cookies are baked with aromatic dried osmanthus flowers and dried cranberries to add a chewy tartness.

A staple for the festivities, The Marmalade Pantry’s Golden Pineapple Tarts are delicately hand-rolled and then slow-cooked to highlight the well-balanced pastry-to-pineapple filling ratio – lightly spiced with hints of pandan and cinnamon, the jammy Thai pineapple filling is enrobed in a pillowy, buttery pastry.

The addictive Sambal Shrimp Rolls is carefully hand-rolled with a flavourful shrimp paste that has been fried with a blend of aromatics such as dried chilli, shallots, garlic, and tamarind paste, before being deep-fried to a crunchy perfection.

Each contained in a brand-new metallic amethyst air-tight canister with The Marmalade Pantry’s olive motif prints and with a gold clamp lock, the trio of the new Osmanthus Cranberry Cookies, Golden Pineapple Tarts, and Sambal Shrimp Rolls form The Traditional Classics Gift Set (S$80+) that comes packaged in The Marmalade Pantry’s premium light pink gift bag with shimmery gold geometric floral motifs.

Also available is the Traditional Petite Chicken Bak Kwa that comes individually vacuum-packed in an elegant and auspicious octagon-shaped box. Produced with no added meat tenderiser, preservatives, or flavouring, the Bak Kwa uses succulent minced chicken thighs marinated with an exclusive fish sauce-based recipe, then put through the traditional charcoal-smoking process to impart a smoky fragrance before being grilled over fire.

During this time of cherished reunions, bonding, and bountiful feasting, enjoy the Spring in Bloom Afternoon Tea Set or Executive Set Lunch – perfect for that long-awaited catch-up with friends, a gathering with colleagues, or corporate hosting.

The Spring In Bloom Afternoon Tea Set (S$78++ for 2 persons) highlights a variety of Chinese New Year-inspired sweets and savouries – featuring dainty sweets such as Citrus Berry Tea Cake, Golden Pineapple Tart, Matcha Swiss Roll, and Salted Caramel Black Sesame Petite Cupcake, the new cupcake of the month, it also includes The Marmalade Pantry signatures like the Cranberry Chicken Sandwiches, Truffle Egg Mayo Sandwiches, and Plain & Raisin Buttermilk Scones with strawberry preserve, orange marmalade and clotted cream.

The savoury selection includes Lunar New Year exclusives such as the Scallop with Pineapple Chutney that is inspired by the ubiquitous Yusheng, the Rice Cracker with Mushroom Fricassee, a nod to ‘Chinese Waxed Meat Claypot Rice’, and the Mini Mantou with Chicken in Lime Mayonnaise – pan-fried chicken tossed in a refreshing lime mayonnaise, nestled in a deep-fried mantou. Each set is complete with two pots of Monogram tea.

With Chinese New Year being only three weeks away, you really should waste no time and get down to snacks shopping pronto. Pineappletart (yes, that’s their name) is another CNY snack website to love. We will be introducing some of our favourites in this post.

PineappleTart.com’s in-house recipes are concocted to please both the young and old. From their traditional Nyonya pineapple tarts to their contemporary flavours, their munchies are 100% handmade with only premium ingredients and zero preservatives.

Be sure to secure your favourite CNY goodies while stocks last. Here are some of their best-selling products that you must get.

AWARD-WINNING MELT-IN-YOUR-MOUTH PINEAPPLE TARTS

With pineapple tarts being a ubiquitous snack during the lunar festivity, one may wonder where to start shopping. But hey, if someone names their shop ‘PineappleTart.com’, get from them, of course! From their name, you can tell they are extremely confident of their pineapple tarts.
These perfectly round, mouth-watering tarts are perfectly buttery. Baked to perfection, the crust is wonderfully crumbly, making every bite so pleasurable. The house-made jam is also sweet with a nice tangy aftertaste.
And what we love best about their pineapple tarts is the very generous filling of pineapple jam.

MELT-IN-YOUR-MOUTH KUEH BANGKIT

Kueh Bangkit is one of the quintessential CNY snacks and one that all generations will love. For the uninitiated, it is a white cookie that is primarily made with tapioca flour.

Over at PineappleTart.com, the folks use premium ingredients to produce their Kueh Bangkit, and the result is a very smooth taste, with a melt-in-your-mouth texture and a fragrant coconut aftertaste.

They are light in flavour and you’ll subconsciously be addicted to it; we kept reaching into the bottle for more!

TRADITIONAL NYONYA PINEAPPLE TARTS

If you prefer your pineapple tarts open-faced, there is the Traditional Nyonya Pineapple Tarts (S$25.90). The flat crust has a cookie-like texture, and is buttery and crumbly. A ball of pineapple jam sits atop the crust. The Traditional Nyonya Pineapple Tarts are slightly sweeter than the Melt-in-Your-Mouth version, and the tangy pineapple jam is really fragrant.

PREMIUM SPICY HAE BEE HIAM PRAWN ROLL

Apart from their pineapple tarts, one munchie from Pineapple Tarts that we absolutely enjoyed is the Hae Bee Hiam Prawn Roll (S$19.90).

Like tiny spring rolls, these bite-size munchies are wrapped with spicy dried shrimps sambal prepared with an in-house recipe. The moreish munchie is power-packed with flavours—sweetness from the dried shrimps and spice from the sambal.

CRAB STICKS CRACKER

CNY or what, deep-fried crab sticks is our guilty pleasure. The Crab Sticks (S$18.90) from PineappleTart.com are marinated with their own seasoning before being deep-fried to a super crispy texture. Every crunch is so satisfying, and we like that they are not overly salty.

There is a wide range of CNY cookies available on PineappleTart.com and some to try are the Salted Egg Popiah Cracker, White Almond Cookie, and Cashew Nut Cookie.

Enjoy free delivery when you spend S$100.

The Marmalade Pantry has launched its classic goodies sets to welcome Chinese New Year, and it is definitely something to be excited about! The Lunar New Year festivities are all about getting together with our loved ones, and in the spirit of celebration, we express our love for our family, we chat, we laugh, and we feast to our heart’s content.

Chinese New Year is always filled with lots of good food, and gifting snacks to our loved ones is a joy on its own. Everybody loves CNY goodies, and we can snack all day at family gatherings, ain’t it?

This CNY, The Marmalade Pantry has prepared three seasonal gift sets—The Traditional Classics (S$60+), The Signature Collection (S$80+) and The Grand Treasures (S$138+). Pick up any of these three when you go house visiting, and the host is bound to love you.

Beat the snaking queues with The Marmalade Pantry’s first-ever beloved snack offering – The Traditional Petite Chicken Bak Kwa. Packaged in a beautiful metallic pink box, these slices of goodness are made with chicken thigh meat, prepared using a traditional charcoal-smoking process and barbequed over woodfire to impart a savoury, smoky flavour.

What is Chinese New Year without pineapple tarts?

The Marmalade Pantry’s hand-rolled Golden Pineapple Tarts (S$24+) feature slow-cooked jammy Thai pineapple filling which is lightly spiced and aromatic with subtle hints of pandan and cinnamon, all encased within an addictive, buttery pastry.

Holding a perfect balance of flavours, each bite brings about a lingering sweetness; one that is rich enough to excite the palate yet light enough to keep the flavour from saturating.

Another popular CNY snack that The Marmalade Pantry is known for is the Sambal Shrimp Rolls (S$22+). These rolls break apart to reveal a fine, savoury stuffing of fried shrimps with a mix of aromatics such as dried chilli, shallots, garlic, and tamarind paste. The piquant shrimp paste is lovingly hand-rolled and deep-fried resulting in a mouth-watering, crunchy snack.

The Marmalade Pantry is introducing two new CNY goodies to the lineup this year—Traditional Petite Chicken Bak Kwa & Honey Mustard Roast Crackers.

The Traditional Petite Chicken Bak Kwa (S$30+) is produced with no added meat tenderiser, preservatives, artificial colouring, flavouring, or MSG and it is individually vacuum-packed for freshness and convenience.

Featuring succulent minced chicken thigh, the preparation begins with a fish sauce-based marinade recipe, followed by a time-honoured charcoal-smoking process to impart a smoky fragrance.

Made with soya bean, the Honey Mustard Roast Crackers ($20+) is deep-fried to golden brown perfection. The soy crisps are then generously coated with a tangy honey mustard seasoning and tossed with a fresh herbaceous garnish of rosemary and chives.

The Marmalade Pantry’s CNY goodies are nicely packaged in three specially curated gift sets that will suit everyone. The gift bags are decked in colours of white, teal and pastel pink, while the gift box comes in auspicious colours of red and white with contemporary illustrations of The Marmalade Pantry’s signature olive stalks. You can also choose to purchase the CNY snacks individually in their own packaging.

Chinese New Year is the best time of the year to pig out, and being the year of the pig, we have all the more reason to do so. Snacking is a huge part of the celebrations and often we find ourselves emptying entire boxes of pineapple tarts, bak kwa, love letters and cookies faster than our arteries can handle.

Sure, these classic favourites hold a special place in our hearts but perhaps it is time to step away from tradition and go for something a little more unconventional this upcoming Chinese New Year.

We explored the streets of Chinatown and found a couple of oddities—some are creative, while some are just plain exotic. Feeling ballsy? Here are 6 unconventional snacks to get this CNY.

UNIQUELY FLAVOURED JELLIES

Roam the streets of Chinatown and you’d find several stalls selling these individually packed jellies—a great substitute for the usual sweets we often see lying around in baskets. Coming in unique flavours such as Cherry Blossom and Coffee, these treats will definitely be a hit among children and adults alike!

GREEN BEAN PASTE PASTRY

Lunar New Year Snacks should not just stop at pineapple tarts and almond cookies. The aforementioned snacks are definitely must-haves in a Chinese household during the festive period, but do also make it a point to try out other pastries such as Green Bean Paste Pastry! Some may shun the idea of it, but we’re sure that this might become a new-found favourite amongst many.

PEANUT PUFF

Also known as Kok Chai, peanut puffs are actually traditional Malaysian snacks that are essentially made with sweet ground peanut encased within a crisp, buttery shell. Shaped like mini curry puffs, these goodies symbolizes abundant wealth for the year ahead and are extremely popular in Malaysia. Try these out this coming New Year!

DURIAN KUEH LAPIS

Love the pungent smell of the King of Fruits and the buttery textures of the various layers of kueh lapis? Imagine the two combined! It may sound like just another a calorie-loaded snack, but this sinful yet decadent cake might just be worth it!

LOBSTER BAK KWA

Feeling like a king? Ditch the pork slices and opt for something more premium to treat both yourself and your guests. There are several stalls serving Lobster Bak Kwa, and while the slices bear a huge resemblance to the usual pork slices, the prices sure speak for the difference in ingredients. 500 grams of Lobster Bak Kwa can set you back by S$40.

EXOTIC FLAVOURED BAK KWA

Yes, our foodie nation is always bursting with creativity when it comes to food trends, but to come up with Crocodile Meat Bak Kwa and Coffee Fusion Meat Bak Kwa is truly #nextlevel.

For the adventurous who are constantly on a lookout for something unconventional to try (or to prank someone), these would be it. To say that these flavours are exotic is truly an understatement!
