🌱 Recommendation:
Vegan Lunar New Year foods refer to festive foods specifically designed for the Lunar New Year (Spring Festival) that contain absolutely no animal-based ingredients (such as eggs, milk, honey, animal fats, etc.). These foods are becoming increasingly popular in Hong Kong, Taiwan, Macau, and overseas Chinese communities, and are especially suitable for vegetarians, vegans, or those seeking a healthy diet. Traditional Lunar New Year foods are mostly pastries, candies, and fried snacks, while vegan versions typically use plant-based ingredients (such as rice, sugar, nuts, mushrooms, and soy products), emphasizing low oil and sugar content, no preservatives, and health benefits. They retain the festive auspicious meanings (such as New Year cake symbolizing "rising higher every year" and radish cake symbolizing "good fortune") while being healthier and more environmentally friendly.

Vegan Crispy Butterfly Crisp, also known as Vegan Palmier or Vegan Butterfly Pastry, is a fully plant-based version of the iconic Hong Kong-style "Wu Dip Sou" (蝴蝶酥 / Butterfly Crisp). These beautifully heart-shaped or butterfly-like double-spiral pastries are made with multiple flaky layers, generously coated in coarse sugar that caramelizes during baking, resulting in a golden, ultra-crispy texture and irresistible buttery-caramel aroma.
Traditionally prepared with heaps of butter or lard for rich flakiness and melt-in-the-mouth indulgence—symbolizing sweetness, happiness, and harmony in life and relationships—this vegan adaptation is handmade in Hong Kong by experienced masters using premium vegetable shortening or plant-based oils (vegetable margarine, flour, sugar, coarse sugar, salt, etc.), ensuring it's completely free of animal products (egg-free, dairy-free, no five pungent spices, no lard, no preservatives). Baked to perfection with distinct layers, satisfying crunch, balanced sweetness, and aromatic caramel notes without any heaviness.
A year-round favorite treat, often sold in protective buckets, tins, or elegant gift boxes, making it a perfect choice for vegans, vegetarians, health-conscious snackers, and anyone who loves classic Hong Kong pastries with a compassionate twist.
