For most Singaporeans, the name Ding Bakery needs no introduction when it comes to CNY goodies. Renowned for their pineapple tarts, their bestsellers are all made from scratch by hand with premium ingredients. Each tart comes with a delightfully buttery crust that’s paired with a tangy and sweet pineapple jam.

Available in three options – Award-Winning Premium Melt-In-Your-Mouth Pineapple Tart (Ball), open-faced Nonya Pineapple Tarts, and Melt-In-Your-Mouth Pineapple Tarts (French Butter). If you feel like switching it up a bit, this year, Ding Bakery has also launched an expanded range of tart flavours including salted egg, matcha, mango, pandan, and taro blueberry.

With CNY coming up, so means the indulgence of everyone’s favourite, Bak Kwa! If you’re looking for the perfect spot to head to for this scrumptious delight, look no further as Kim Hua Guan is definitely a stall worth checking out!

Starting off with their signature, the bak kwa is nicely cut into thick slices, giving each slice a substantial bite. There is a good layer of fats within the slices, giving you the perfect amount of sinfulness while keeping it juicy. Flavourwise, it has a good balance of sweetness and blends well with the flavour of the pork.

Another one of their best-sellers, the spicy version is perfect for those who love their heat. As compared to the signature, the spicy version does have more char, giving it a plus point. What makes this bak kwa stand out is that you first enjoy the sweetness of the marinade, followed by a delightful kick of spice that lingers and makes you crave for more with each bite!
