Highlights of Taiwan Travel Souvenirs: Hello Kitty Pineapple Cakes & Almond Crisps

By MOOK Scenic Editorials

In addition to selling Taiwan souvenirs, the store also features the unique “HELLO KITTY Ice Bar,” which offers famous red bean milk ice and delicious KITTY toast sets, allowing you to fully enjoy a HELLO KITTY-themed meal and atmosphere.

A popular Lunar New Year souvenir item, the “HELLO KITTY Almond Crisp Gift Box,” comes in an exquisitely designed paper rope-packaged box. Red Sakura uses twice as many almond slices as typical commercial almond crisps. Each bite delivers a rich abundance of almond crisps and crispy wafers, with a delicately baked hint of creamy milk aroma—sweet but not greasy, and delightfully crunchy.

“Red Sakura Foods” originally specialized in pastry arts and in 1992 pioneered the “Butter Flake Cookie.” Within just five years, they preserved the traditional taste while adhering to modern “health-conscious” standards by specially using imported New Zealand butter, free from preservatives, to bake fresh, delicious, soft, and melt-in-your-mouth cookies. Another must-try is the delicious “Taiwan Q-Cake,” made with carefully selected red beans from Pingtung boiled into a paste, combined with fragrant salted egg yolks slowly matured in red clay soil, and layered with savory meat floss to create a rich, multi-textured flavor. The unique sweet-and-salty taste makes it perfect for both gifts and personal enjoyment—it’s your best choice among famous Taiwanese specialties.
