What to consider when buying pineapple tarts

Your choice of pineapple tart will depend on whether you’re buying the snack for personal indulgence or festive gifting purposes.

If you’re gifting the CNY goody, presentation is key. You might prioritise premium, artisanal bakes and aesthetic packaging.

However, if you’re buying pineapple tarts for yourself, personal taste will carry more weight. For those who are health-conscious, you may consider a

low-sugar, “not too sweet” option

.

Otherwise, factors such as your ideal pineapple-jam-to-pastry ratio, preference for crust texture and richness and how tangy or sweet you want the jam to be will drive your decision.


Our top picks for pineapple tarts

With these criteria in mind, here are some of our top picks for pineapple tarts in Singapore.
