This is a Peranakan snack made of tapioca flour with coconut milk, sugar and pandan leaf, with different food colours. Steamed layer by layer to get the rainbow effect.
This is one of my favourite traditional Chinese snacks, made of soft and chewy glutinous rice flour, with sweet mung bean or peanut fillings. It is usually molded into a red tortoise shape, to signify longevity and good luck. The ang ku kuehs are placed on traditional colourful Peranakan porcelaine plate.

During the Lunar New Year, a pair of mandarin oranges are exchanged among friends and relatives for good luck. The Chinese word for mandarin oranges sounds like the Chinese word for wealth. Therefore, it is considered an auspicious fruit. Sounds superstitious but this tradition is here to stay. I am all for it if wealth really drops by, .all is good, plus the fruit is tasty.
