ho ho ho, hope i’m not too late in sharing some holiday joy with you! yes, yes, yes, tomorrow will be the eve of xmas and for those yet to finish their shopping, do head straight down to sunnyhills and grab their xmas limited edition gift set, priced to sell at $ 27, for 10 pineapple cakes and a bottle of pineapple juice, all neatly packaged in a gift bag! not sold? what better excuse is it for you to check out our iconic raffles hotel, which was chosen as their flagship international outpost?! no deal? how about the tranquil setting, of their so called retail space, where you can rest your bass and flaunt your treble after some serious high end shopping. not biting? here they do not pressure you into buying but merely politely enquire if you wish to partake in some tea and cake. eat and drink for free, excuse me?! yes, please! i highly recommend that you ask them for yours to be toasted exactly 3 mins. the best browning to heating timing, for that little extra tan and slight warming touch. then preferably washing it all down with some fine oolong tea, please. but remember the main act, once unwrapped from it’s 2 weeks protective shell, is a gold ingot they call the sunny delight. just the right size, not gone in one bite. neither overly buttery nor messily crumbly. each bite will reveal that perfect ratio of sweet tangy fibrous pineapple fruit paste from the lovingly sun stroked plains of ba gua mountains in taiwan. ho, ho, ho, you will love it so! yes, yes, yes, i’ll be back, oh yes!

Im Raffles Hotel entdeckten wir diesen kleine Café. Wir wurden freundlich begrüßt und neben einem guten Tee gab es noch wunderbaren Ananaskuchen. Die Marke Sunnyhills kommt aus Taiwan und hat in Singapur diesen ersten Flagshipstore eröffnet. Der Ananaskuchen ist deren Spezialität und ganzer Stolz. Der Kuchen wird mit Ananas aus der Region Bagua in Taiwan zubereitet. Die Butter dafür kommt aus Neuseeland, das Mehl aus Japan und die Hühnereier sind bio. Geschmacklich war das wirklich wunderbar und einfach überzeugend. Völlig überrascht stellten wir fest das wir das auch gar nicht zahlen müssen, weil jeder Besucher den Tee und den Kuchen gratis bekommt. Dieser Kuchen macht einfach süchtig und so zahlten wir dann brav für unserer Box die wir mit nach Hause nahmen. Auch eine Tüte Tee nahmen wir mit. Der Kuchen ist längst gegessen, der Tee noch gut versiegelt im Schrank. BTW: Ich merke gerade das man den Kuchen online auch nach Deutschland ordern( ) kann. :-)

ive heard so much hype about these tarts from taiwan but i never get to try them when i was in taiwan. lo and behold! instead of me going to them, they have come to me and opened an outlet at raffles hotel. *woot* place is so quiet and minimalistic. peeping in you couldnt even tell its a tart shop. place wasnt v big but when you step in there is a long communal wooden table with some magazines and coffee books on it. you can take a seat and e staff will serve you complimentary full size tart with some oolong tea. e pineapple tart is one of e best ive had. its not overwhelmingly sweet, no preservatives and e pineapple filling is chunky n yummy and best of all organic :) e crust is made w premium butter from new zealand. e world’s finest ingredients packed into a a little rectangular tart, goodness in every bite. dont trust me? go ahead and give it a try. you can leave without purchase after trying it but that hardly happens to me. always leaving e place w a box of either 5 o 10.
