(They did manage to remember I asked for a snack and brought back several bags of flavored nuts.) Not exactly the type of snack I wanted. I had asked for some Jujube flower snacks, maybe some Tang Yuan if possible, or even one of those snacks that looks like a frtter with fruit. Does anyone know if you can purchase any Daoxiangcun cookies in the USA or if they are available for purchase online? Thanks!

I hope that makes me extra-humane. I love the phrase "cake carnage"!! Dude, I never gave up the afternoon snack, personally. I hope that makes me extra-humane. I love the phrase “cake carnage”!!

Chinese pastries were not my cup of team, so I never bothered to see what they were selling. Now I have a better idea of what these pastries are like & would probably buy them back for my Singapore friends. ^^ Hi Christine, thanks for trying these out and describing how each of them tasted.

My favorite so far is 凤梨酥 (the pineapple kind), but I haven't had all the ones you tried. I just discovered Daoxiangcun a few months ago (how had I missed it for so long?) and love it!

I like the pastries on grass. nice touch! hmm, I've been thinking about hosting a tea tasting as part of our Grand Opening festivities and maybe i should have a tea tasting with these pastries, i mean Chinese confections... how informative and lovely. reminds me of a line that made quite an impression on me and that was seared into my mind from this recent trip: “wouldn’t you like to try a japanese confection?” printed on a sign. reading this post made me think ” wouldn’t you like to try a chinese confection?”
