Celebrate Raya This Year With Cookies Vibe Premium Cookies

Festival Cultural And Celebration March 29, 2021

Dear All,

Cookies Vibe Offers Attractive Promotions With Their #RAYAVIBES2021 Combo

It's almost time! Yes, we are going to celebrate Ramadan and Syawal really soon, just weeks away now. I believe everyone is in the delighting mood to welcome this festive season since we missed the celebration last year due to the unforeseen COVID-19 pandemic that hit us in the beginning of the year 2020. Right?

Cookies From Cookies Vibe For CNY Celebration

The unfortunate event also happened to me this year where the Chinese community in Malaysia was suppose to celebrate the Lunar New Year during the mid-February 2021, but due to Movement Control Order 2.0, we were unable to celebrate it with our family and loved ones. This was my very first year did not celebrate it with my family at my home town.

Even though we were still in the MCO 2.0 during that time, it doesn't kill our tradition of celebrating Chinese New Year. What need to be done, still need to be done even we were far apart from our family. House spring cleaning, preparing and cooking reunion dinner, preparing angpow for elders and interestingly this year we did it using e-angpow and of course, how can we miss out the cookies, right?

Let me show you what I have for this year celebration; Black Pistachio, Mini Popia, Cornflakes Bite, and Cashew Teacakes.

And choosing the best cookies in town will make you even rejoice when having it. So, I choose Cookies Vibe for several reasons. First, the cookies are made from premium ingredients such as 100% pure butter from the famous brand that imported from New Zealand, Anchor Food Professional and the chocolate from Beryls. These brands are renowned for its top quality in term of their dairy products making them one of the best choice to make cookies.

Black Pistachio - Cookies Vibe

Secondly, the Cookies Vibe is very generous in term of the topping to make the cookies very presentable and delicious. For example, looking at the Black Pistachio, pistachio is not a cheap ingredient but Cookies Vibe put sufficient amount of it that making you satisfy with its taste in every bite. Other examples of the premium toppings are almond, cashew or hazelnut.

Cashew Teacake - Cookies Vibe

Thirdly, since we are purchasing this for Raya celebration, our Muslim friends can have peace of mind since the cookies from Cookies Vibe are all made from Halal ingredients and it is 100% Muslim product. Currently, the team are still in the process of getting the Halal Certificate from JAKIM.

Cornflakes Bites - Cookies Vibe

For Raya 2021 collection, Cookies Vibe has prepared more than 35 type of cookies and snacks for you to choose. If you are big fan of cornflakes in the cookies, you can choose the Malatops Crispy, Ombak Rindu, Cashew Butterscotch, Hazelnut Latte, Cornflakes Bites and Cashew Teacakes because all of these cookies have cornflakes in the ingredients.

I would love to share with you also on the Cookies Vibe's Top 10 premium cookies just for your reference if you not sure what to order from the long list; Ombak Rindu, Malatops Crispy, Chocolate Heaven, Nutty Basket, Almond Chocobar, Royale Cadbury, Black Pistachio, Hazelnut Latte, Velvet Ohana and Crispy Rainbow (Biskut Lidah Kucing).

Mini Popia - Cookies Vibe

Personal Experience

I personally really love these cookies that I got from Cookies Vibe. Like mentioned above, it is made from premium ingredient make it tastes expensive too especially when the cookies melts in my mouth. The balance tastes of the buttery cookies with its flavors are perfectly blend. The texture of the cookies are perfectly baked, not too hard, not too soft. You can taste the cookies were freshly baked too based on the smells when you open it up from the container.

A good mini popia is that it doesn't have the bad-oil odors and I can confirm you that I don't taste it when I have this Mini Popia from Cookies Vibe. Therefore, I believe that all the cookies and snacks from them are all freshly baked and prepared for their customer.

For the first installation in 2021 with the theme of "Everlasting Beauty", this installation actually pays tribute to the classic Wan Shou Wu Jiang (万寿无疆) porcelain design which is often found in the homes of the Chinese families and infused with the inspiration from the popular Chinese floral design, Bao Xiang Hua (寳相花).

Everlasting Beauty With Wan Shou Wu Jiang Porcelain And Bao Xiang Hua Designs

Kwai Chai Hong once again collaborated with Alice to presents a masterpiece sculpture that made from hundreds of porcelain pieces created as an expression of turning waste to adoration, giving it a new lease of life.

The idea came about when Alice saw how a beautiful porcelain plate that has served hundreds of memorable dinners was disposed-off instantly when it was chipped. This was actually based on the Chinese superstition that believed a chipped plate is an omen of misfortune.

"There is no much memory behind these plates that it breaks my heart to see them thrown away. Now, I can give it a new purpose; an art-piece that people can appreciate for a long time. Now, the creation of "The Lady" (小姐) sculpture will sits gracefully at the entrance as a sign of greeting to the visitors as they enter Kwai Chai Hong." said Alice.

The installations and planned display concept is further channeled through the installation of a setup mimicking a traditional fabric-dye factory with colorful textile hanging over bamboo stilts to dry. This is made possible with the help of technology. For this installation, Kwai Chai Hong proudly collaborate with Epson Malaysia and this traditional fabric-dye installation represents how old and dying crafts are innovated and transformed into various forms, including art.
