Many flavors - Sweet Singapore

in #travel7 years ago

Anyone who has visited Singapore or live there, meets these goodies often.
The meals are multi-source based on Malaysian, Chinese, Tamil and Indian cuisine.
I'll show you a few basic tastes of sweet, commonly found on the streets or food stores.

Hunt for sweets

You will find beautiful ornate desserts of European type in the Singapore. I was attracted by the untraditional flavors of macaroons.

Squid ink and salmon.
I was warned in the store that there was a real slice of fish in the macaroons, but it tasted good to me. =D

Jelly attack

Before I came to Asia I hated the jelly, but the jelly has a completely different meaning here. Now I adore jelly. ♥

This "yummy" also appears in ice-cream cups. I tasted this in the Marina Bay foodcourt. yeah I know ... sometimes the forms are infantile =)

My favorite is using matcha tea or green tea in the jelly or cakes.

Green tea cake

In the china town area I found this traditional jelly sprinkled with coconut.
Called Ondeh ondeh (I think ...)

Stalls with fruit, where they prepare fresh drink, you can usually see a rainbow lapis and agar agar.

Pandan cake - green-colored sponge cake.

Ice Kachang - made of ice and red beans...It's more ice with flavor than ice-cream, ice cream can be bought in a cup or different type.

Drinks

There is also a cheaper alternative to sweet refreshment - Sugarcane juice !
It's type of grass ( peeled sugar cane stalks), which is crushed in a milling process to produce liquid cane juice.
