Hong Kong’s most famous snacks

Pineapple bun

Pineapple bun is an iconic Hong Kong food item. The bun earns such name thanks to the chequered pattern on top that resembles a pineapple although there is no pineapple inside it. The crunchy and sugary top is made from cookie-type dough, while the pillowy and soft bottom is made from Chinese-style bread dough. Most places serve it with a piece of butter stuffed into the middle of the bun.

Egg tart

Wife cake

Wife cake is a ubiquitous snack which can be found in almost every bakery in Hong Kong. Traditionally, this is a bun with flaky skin and filled with sweet winter melon paste.
