No big gatherings, fewer houses to visit, and no shouting of auspicious phrases during lo hei. Covid-19 restrictions sure seem like a real mood dampener this festive season, but one thing the pandemic won’t take away is our love for delicious Chinese New Year goodies!
Pandemic or no pandemic, we still get to enjoy our favorite CNY snacks, and speaking of favorite CNY snacks, the one goodie that no doubt comes to mind is, of course, Pineapple Tarts, a perennial favorite treat that all CNY celebrations simply wouldn’t be complete without.

So, when it comes to making the difficult decision of which pineapple tarts to spend your calories on, it’s a serious matter. But fret not, we’ve got you covered.

1. The Crane Grain (@thecranegrain)
Crafted from a twenty-year-old recipe that has been passed down from mother to son, The Crane Grain’s pineapple tarts will definitely leave you wanting more. The secret behind this tart’s mouthwatering pineapple jam is the laborious work of making the jam from scratch.
Fresh pineapples, hand-grated to yield an unparalleled texture, are simmered over a gentle flame for 8 hours, bringing out that deep, perfectly tangy pineapple flavor.
