Din Tai Fung is here to help you celebrate the Lunar New Year
Last year, Din Tai Fung took the food scene by storm with their masked ox buns. Now, they’re back with cheerful tigers. These pillowy, steamed buns are loaded with oozy molten chocolate and lotus biscoff filling. These soft treats are the perfect way to end any celebratory feast, or anytime you need a little pick-me-up.
Din Tai Fung are also releasing Gold Fortune Dumplings, which are designed to look like gold ingots. Each dumpling is delicately wrapped with yellow gold pastry, and filled to the brim with scallop and pork. These dumplings symbolise wealth and prosperity, and will help usher in wealth and good fortune.
Both the tiger buns and the dumplings will be available at all store locations around Australia, and for frozen delivery from January 24.
