Finest Pineapple Delight
Regular price $65
Two of our most beloved pineapple treats in one box; it's a pineapple party!
The word pineapple shares the same phonetic sound as the word prosperity in Taiwanese Hokkien dialect, making these delicious treats the perfect gift for prosperity and abundance.
Our traditional Taiwanese Pineapple Cake is a culinary symbol for the island of Taiwan. These golden cubes of pineapple goodness are made with sweet and tart pineapple jam encased in a soft buttery pastry.
The Pineapple Linzer is our interpretation of the traditional Taiwanese pineapple cake. It has been a beloved tearoom staple since we opened our doors in 2015. The cookie is made with two hazelnut shortbreads and filled with pineapple jam with a sprinkle of lime zest and sea salt.
Whether you are a purist looking to satisfy your craving for a classic pineapple cake or an admirer of the modern pineapple treat in linzer form, we think this box is made for you.
