in merely 4 weeks time, we will be celebrating Chinese New Year again! *throws confetti*
there’s 10 individual exquisite packages in a box. and each box is priced at RM 45 (available till January 26th, 2014).
do you know why Gartien only offers such limited quantity? that’s because each and every pieces is handmade with loads of love with absolutely NO preservative and artificial flavouring added! each pineapple cake is compact yet soft. crumbles and melts in your mouth. and the filling.. not cloying to my liking! Gartien uses homegrown pineapple for the filling, and instead of puree, the pineapple was diced, textually contrast with the buttery soft pastry. ooh la la.
Penang is one of the place which is full of FOODs and being a Penangties, I usually buy tau sah pneah back for my collegues and it is like no surprises or just a normal standard things to buy back. This round, I have something special for them not the usual boring Tau Sah Pneah for each and every round I am coming back to Penang. This round I had Gartien to share with my friends and collegue there.
Gartien Pineapple cake is well packed in a classy look where each pack has 10 pieces in abox and it is anytime presentable as gifts or souvenirs. The packing is classy as well as as environmental friendly too where they are using paper boxes which is very nice. Each pieces are well packed and sealed individually in Japanese washi paper in order to preserve its freshness. The best part of it is no preservative is added throughout the process. Because of this, these can only be kept for 1 month at most.
The pineapple is well blend with raw sugar and honey to produce the tangy and tasty taste of it with the juicy pineapple taste which is indeed a great combination for the filing. It is then being baked till golden brown and I am just loving the flufiness of the tarts overall. The overall delights is really heavenly.
