One of the best things about Chinese New Year is for sure the CNY goodies. It’s no surprise that the goodness of CNY bakes comes with a heap load of calories, so we’re here to make sure they go to those worth the calories. We’ve compiled a list of the top best places to get your Chinese New Year goodies that are sure to wow yourself and your guests.
1. Pineapple Tarts Singapore
This rich and buttery snack from Pineapple Tart Singapore has made it impossible for you to just “have one,” but with its delightful melt-in-your-mouth goodness, no one’s really complaining. Super delicious, extremely addictive. One bottle of these pineapple tarts is sure to disappear as fast as you run away from your judgy aunties during the new year.
This award-winning, freshly baked pineapple tarts are homemade using only the finest quality ingredients for all to enjoy. They are baked with butter and this adds a rich taste to the sweet and sour balance of the pineapple filing. The buttery crust adds a good layer of texture and we’re sure you’re going to devour it in just one sitting. Pineapple Tarts Singapore also offers pineapple tarts in many different, unique flavours that add a modern twist to the traditional tarts. Some of these include mala-flavoured pineapple tarts, truffle pineapple tarts and our personal favorite, the cheezylicious pineapple tarts that are parmesan-coated tarts for all the cheese lovers out there.

4. Cedele
Well known for their handcrafted and artisanal healthy bakes, they have many different outlets all across Singapore. This makes it a lot easier to get your hands on their seasonal Pineapple Pocket Pie. It’s a different look and feel from your traditional or ball pineapple tarts that everyone seems to flock for, but trust us when we say these pineapple pockets are just as good. The filling is definitely the one that stands out more as the pastry is a very thin layer, but the pineapple filing is lightly sweetened so it doesn’t make it overwhelming. If you’re looking for a healthier alternative so you can enjoy more without worrying about your OOTD getting a little tighter, Cedele’s Pineapple Pocket Pie is the way to go.
