Chinese New Year (CNY) is all about meeting your one-year-see-one-time relatives and, for the singles, collecting angbaos!
But what’s CNY without feasting on traditional snacks?
This 2021, many brands have taken on the challenge of differentiating themselves through formulating never-before-seen snacks with special flavours.
If you’re still fretting over which brands and snacks to turn to, we have shortlisted a few noteworthy ones so that you’ll be spoilt for choice!
These are our honest reviews on the CNY goodies mentioned! Special thanks to the respective bakeries for sending us their lovely bakes 🙂
