Chinese New Year is that special time when the family group chat gets louder, the snack table gets fuller, and everyone starts exchanging “huat ah!” wishes like it’s a sport.
For CNY 2026, Old Seng Choong is leaning into the Year of the Horse energy with a festive collection that’s big on gifting, bold on flavours, and packed with nostalgic favourites (plus a premium new bak kwa you’ll want to keep for yourself).
What’s new and worth trying first
1) Applewood Bak Kwa (New, premium highlight) — S$68.80
This is the headline act for the Year of the Horse: Applewood Bak Kwa, smoked over applewood for a fruit-forward, refined smokiness, with slices individually vacuum-packed for freshness.
Old Seng Choong’s bak kwa lineup (480g box):
-
Applewood Bak Kwa — S$68.80 (new)
-
Traditional Bak Kwa — S$45.80
-
Truffle Bak Kwa — S$48.80
2) Egg Rolls (“love letters”) — S$9.80 (New)
A CNY staple gets a fresh update. Old Seng Choong’s Egg Rolls come in multiple flavours on the official CNY page, including:
-
Pandan Egg Roll — S$9.80
-
Coffee Egg Roll — S$9.80
-
Sea Salt Egg Roll — S$9.80

(Perfect for that “one more piece” snacking spiral.)
