With Chinese New Year approaching in less than a month, have you started shopping for festive goodies? I got the opportunity to try out the Keuh Lapis and signature cookies from Yang Yang. If you are looking for cookies that are not too sweet and in par with home made version in term of taste and quality, Yang Yang cookies will be a choice for you.
陽陽餅鋪 (Yang Yang Cookies) is the gathering of a collection of traditional, authentic Chinese cookies and pastries recipes from the Yang family passed down through the generations for more than 50 years. Yang Yang is a home-grown company that produces quality Chinese New Year pastries most well-known for their PINEAPPLE TARTS, GREEN PEA COOKIES, ALMOND COOKIES and KUEH LAPIS! The products are made with all natural ingredients, and no preservatives are included.The cookies are Halal Certified too.
From clockwise: Kueh Lapis, Almond Cookies, Pineapple Tarts & Green Pea Cookies
Kueh Lapis: I love the fragrant and moist texture of the Kueh Lapis. The Kueh Lapis is not as sweet and oily as compare to others. It really taste like home bake cake. This make me want to have another serving of Kueh Lapis without being too guilty!
Kueh Lapis: 1kg for $52 and 0.5kg for $32
Pineapple Tarts: With a thin layer of buttery pastry, the pineapple filling is not too sour compare to some that I had eaten. Bite size pineapple tarts that you can conveniently pop them into your mouth. The price for a bottle of pineapple tarts cost $28.
Green Pea Cookies: Fragrant of the green peas and the crispy texture of the green pea bite make these cookies very delicious. A must try! The price for a bottle of green pea cookies cost $18.80.
Almond Cookies: The almond cookies are one of my favorite cookies from Yang Yang. I love the texture of the crunchy chunky almond bites. Love the aroma of the almond too. Warning: These cookies are very addictive too. The price for a bottle of almond cookies cost $18.80.
The cookies are not too sweet and fret not; this does not compromise on the flavor and taste of the cookies. I guess this is due to the quality ingredients that Yang Yang used in their bakes.
Yang Yang cookies are available at Takashimaya CNY Fair (B2 Atrium) and Vivo City CNY Fair (Level 1 outside Tangs) from 22 January 2015 – 17 February 2015 and 27 January 2015 – 17 February 2015 respectively. Alternatively, you can order online through their website.
Happy Shopping Everyone!
