Typically made from duck eggs, salted egg has infiltrated many of our everyday menus and snacks. Many festive food trends are making its way this CNY but expect to see salted egg anything at probably every household you visit.

Whether you indulge in the classic pineapple tarts or the salted egg version, this snack is probably the main culprit for making your CNY outfits a little tighter.
This rich and buttery snack has made it impossible for you to just “have one,” but with its delightful melt-in-your-mouth goodness, no one’s really complaining.
4) Love Letters
These light, flaky and crispy snacks come in so many different flavours today, coffee, pandan and even butter. Fun Fact: Popular lore has it these biscuits were used as a method for forbidden lovers to pass romantic messages to each other, hence the name.
Their edible quality made it easy for any evidence of a tryst to be quickly destroyed, and consuming the cookies meant the message had been taken to heart. Sneaky, yet clever. Props to them for thinking of such a method which gave us one of the best CNY snacks today.
