In Singapore and Malaysia, pineapple tarts, symbolising wealth and prosperity, are popular pastries that encourage sitting down together for communal baking with your family before or during Lunar New Year. The buttery melt-in-your-mouth treats can be stored and enjoyed over a few weeks of festivities.

What will we cover?

  • Ingredients and method to make your own pineapple tarts

  • Making the filling and pastry

  • Tastings

Due to the size of the oven in the classroom, we will not be able to bake the tarts during class, so please bring a container to bring home the moulded pastries, with instructions on baking.

Anther will bring in finished pineapple tarts for students to taste.

What should I bring?

Please bring a food safe container to take the pineapple tarts
