Happy Dōngzhì Festival/ Winter Solstice Festival (冬至快乐）

First of all, I would like to wish all the readers, friends and relatives, Happy Dōngzhì Festival/ Winter Solstice Festival ( 冬至快乐).

This year I decided to blog about the home made tang yuen. Actually it is fun to make tang yuen at home. It is fun when everyone sit down together to make the tang yuen. It's time to sit down and catch up with every one.

Da da da......... following are the tang yuen make by my daughther...........

 After our vacation trip to China, we decided to cook something different from the original tang yuen. We decided to cook the tang yuen with red bean soup.

Our red bean tang yuen dessert.

Lastly, enjoy your Dōngzhì Festival and have fun!

Fact: Gartien uses the freshest pineapple from Nibong Tebal, Malaysia. And then they process it in Georgetown, Penang.

My Verdict of this Pineapple Cakes: This is my first time tasting the Gartien Pineapple Cakes. When I unwrap the pineapple cake wrapping, the buttery aroma fills the air. The pineapple fillings is quite interesting compares to others. As you can get the pure bites of the pineapple textures.
