Then there are those of the Taiwanese variety, which come in a rectangular block and are considered more pineapple cakes.
ICYDK: Pineapple tarts are eaten during Chinese New Year as a symbol of prosperity. The Hokkien phrase for pineapple is ‘ong lai’, and is a homophone of the Chinese phrase ‘wang lai’, which roughly translates to “the arrival of wealth and luck”.
