What a great recipe! Sadly I don't have enough time to make them. I wanted to share with you some Chinese New Year Delicacies in Melbourne! In Melbourne in most Asian supermarkets theres a brand called Lucky. Their Chinese New Year delicacies are the best! They have honeycomb, pineapple rolls and tarts, arrowhead, kuih kapet. You have to try their really good. I hauled their Chinese New Year stall at crown last year :P.
