Where to get the best Pineapple Tarts:

Kele Singapore

Opened in 1983, Kele has been in the pineapple tart business for more than thirty years and is frequently voted as “The Best Pineapple Tarts in Singapore.” They sell out of pineapple tarts every Chinese New Year, which is the most popular time to eat them.

Ang Ku Kueh (Red Tortoise Cake)

This Red Tortoise Cake, called Ang Ku Kueh in Hokkein, is a hugely popular snack/dessert among Chinese people and is often eaten at celebrations like birthdays or Chinese New Year. This popular Chinese pastry is usually round or oval-shaped. The outer layer is soft and sticky, made with glutinous rice flour, and is usually red in color. Different colors correspond to different sweet fillings in the center. The pastry is molded to look like a tortoise shell, thus the name Red Tortoise Cake. It sits on a square piece of banana leaf and is so popular in Singapore that there is a cartoon character called Ang Ku Kueh Girl. As tortoises have a long life and represent longevity, eating these cakes represents good luck, fortune, and having a long life.
