CNY hampers Singapore
If the omnipresent dong dong qiang songs weren’t indicative enough, then here’s a PSA: We’re officially entering Chinese New Year season, people. That means planning visits with the fam, queuing up to draw out angbao money, and spring cleaning the house.
And with visitings comes the time to think of a perfect gift for whoever’s hosting. Enter hampers, AKA the fail-safe go-to for door gifts and well wishes. But these 9 CNY hampers come with a chock-full of munchies that aren’t just your usual chicken essence-and-abalone combo. So, if you’re stressing over what to get your boss or relative, take a deep breath and read on:
1. Mdm Ling Bakery – Steps To Prosperity ($148)

Besides an abundance of wealth, let’s admit that we also wish for an abundance of snacks. Mdm Ling Bakery’s Steps To Prosperity is a dish come true for those who are always reaching for the snack jar. Picture this: 12 festive bites housed in an intricately carved wooden box that you can turn into a trinket drawer afterwards.
You can anticipate local recipes like Kopi Siew Dai Cookies, original bakes like Pink Himalayan Sea Salt Chocolate Almond Cookies, and other classics like Pineapple Balls. Literally no crumbs left behind.
Delivery date: From 3rd Jan 2023

2. Janice Wong – Prosperous Bundle ($178.50)
A box with snacks and well wishes to boot.

Among the many CNY greetings we spout for that extra angbao money, “年年有余” (nian nian you yü) is among the greats. “余” (yü) refers to abundance, while “年年有” (nian nian you) poses that we may receive it every year. However, because the former sounds similar to the Chinese word for fish, they are often associated with this phrase.
That’s why this box of chocolate Koi fish will make a meaningful visiting present for even the most traditional of households. Get one for yourself with Janice Wong’s Prosperous Bundle which also comes with Pineapple Flower Tarts, Wholemeal Nut Cookies, and a bottle of Italian red wine to start the year off on a high.
