Frequently Asked Questions

All our products are all handmade and we sincerely apologise if our paus sometimes do not look identical to each other. We will always do our very best to provide the best quality pau for you!

We would recommend customers who are not planning on consuming our pau immediately after purchase to get cold pau instead of the hot one so as to not affect the quality of the pau. Our paus are freshly made daily and unless you are purchasing the pau for immediate consumption, we would recommend getting the cold (room temperature) paus and heat it up prior to eating!

If you are planning to consume any of our products over the next few days, please store them in the fridge!

For meat paus, they can last a day outside and up to 4 days in the fridge. If you would like them to last longer, you can store them in the freezer where they can last up to a month.

For sweet paus, they can last a day outside, up to a week in the fridge and a month in the freezer.

For our rice dumplings, they can last a day outside and up to a week in the fridge.

For our baked items, they can last

For our cookies, please refer to the expiration date on the bottom of the bottle.

For our traditional mooncakes, they can last up to 4 weeks in room temperature.

For our snowskin mooncakes, they can last up to 2 months in the freezer.

For small paus, please steam them with a low fire for 8 minutes or until the paus are soft.

For the bigger paus, please steam them with a low fire for 10 minutes or until the paus are soft.

For our rice dumplings, we recommend submerging the dumplings in a pot of water (please ensure there is at least 1 inch of water above the dumplings) and boiling it with low fire. Once the water has started boiling, turn the heat off and let it simmer for 10 minutes

For our tapioca kueh, you can either steam it or heat it up in the toaster oven or a regular oven till warm.

All our paus in our hampers have to be cold so that they do not create condensation on the packing and affect the quality of our products. We are very sorry but we are unable to provide hot pau for any hamper packaging. We highly recommend customers to steam/heat the buns prior to consumption for the best experience.
