Gift Buying When You Forgot To Go Shopping

Have you ever had a birthday, anniversary, or holiday come up on the calendar and realized you forgot to get that special someone a gift? Don’t worry, there are several ways to buy online and still have your present delivered that day!

Florals

Sending bouquets has been a long-time method of last-minute gifting, but there are ways to make it special and unique. No need to buy dozens of roses or bunches of wildflowers that will soon fade when you can purchase a whole plant to send. Afraid your recipient might not have a green thumb? Most greenery shops will give you a reference guide showing which plants need the most care and which ones require minimal work.

Food

No one could make a mistake by sending a treat as a fun surprise. Your options are almost endless, with goodies ranging from sweet to sour, tangy to tart, and gourmet to gooey. All this requires of you is some research of your local area in order to see what is available. “Cookie delivery Atlanta” is an example of a search phrase to use. Can’t remember the person’s favorite snack or flavor? Purchase an assorted package of treats, giving him or her some of what is loved as well as new things to try.

Fun

Experiences are great gifts for that person who already has everything. Instead of purchasing another trinket that may break or collect dust, give the gift of a memory that will never fade. These are often easy to purchase online and even easier to deliver since they go directly to your recipient’s inbox. Not sure what your loved one would like to do? Think about hobbies or an activity the person has shown an interest in doing and make his or her dreams come true.

Time has a way of quickly passing, bringing dates and occasions sooner than expected. Before the panic of forgetting to buy a gift kicks in, jump online and see what you can find to make the day extra special.

Get Bak Kwa Delivered To Your Doorstep

Chinese New Year is just around the corner.  Many people will be busy shopping for new clothes, gifts, foods, snacks as well as spring couplets, lanterns, many decorative things to decorate in the house.  Have you done all your shopping yet?  One of the things that my family looks forward to is eating bak kwa (barbecued pork/chicken jerky) which is our beloved Chinese New Year staple.  Though we can get bak kwa on normal days, eating them during Chinese New Year has a different meaning. It is a traditional Chinese New Year food and symbolizes good luck and believed to ward off negative energies.

The one thing that I dread is the crazy long queue to buy the barbecued meat.  I so do not look forward to the long wait in this hot weather to get them.   Well, folks in Singapore are really lucky as they get savour delicious bak kwa without having to line up for hours in the sun, thanks to Bakkwadelivery.sg.  If you have not purchased your Bak Kwa or when you have unexpected guests visiting your home during Chinese New Year and you need to restock them, just go to Bakkwadelivery.sg and place your order.  You will have delicious pork jerky delivered right to your doorstep within 2 hours.

This purveyor of sweet dried meat jerky uses the freshest ingredients and an age-old recipe of a unique blend of marinates to prepare the meat.  The extra lean meat is cut just the right thickness and tenderized, and then roast over a steady charcoal fire for that prized smoky flavour.  Unlike other Bak Kwa shops who have given up the traditional methods of roasting Bak Kwa in favour of newer methods, they are still roasting Bak Kwa the same way it has been done since the 20th Century.

Bak Kwa Delivery offers 2 types of dried meat.

1. Traditional Sliced Pork Bak Kwa Original Flavour


2. Sliced Pork Bak Kwa (Comes in 2 flavours – Mala & Spicy)

Made with 100% Non-GMO and natural ingredients and no artificial flavourings, their Bak Kwa are sweet, smoky and bursting with rich flavours.  Every order is freshly roast-to-order by hands, just before being delivered. They come packed in an air-sealed pack.

Keto Gift Basket Ideas

The holiday season is upon us.  Do you have a keto or low carb person on your gifting list and you are not sure what to get them?  You can make a custom gift basket or gift box if you do not want to just get one specific gift.  Do scroll down to get the best low carb or keto gift ideas for a keto gift box or basket.

Zerro – Erythritol ( ZERO CALORIE SUGAR) which is a sugar substitute that looks and tastes like sugar, yet has almost no calories. Erythritol has been approved for use as a food additive in the United States and in many other countries.   I have used them for my baking and they are amazing.

MCT Oil which stands for medium-chain triglycerides.  It is a form of saturated fatty acid that is found in certain foods like coconut/coconut oil. MCT oil is a concentrated source of these fats since it provides more than would be found in whole foods like coconuts.  I think that a good quality coconut oil would be one of the first things I would add to your low carb or keto gift baskets.

Caroma Tik Tik Low Carb Coffee which is a Malaysian slow brew coffee in a teabag.  This conveniently packed coffee is made from 100% Arabica ground coffee bean.  Caroma Tik Tik Low Carb Coffee is available in 3 flavours.  I think they would make a fantastic addition to your basket!

Chocolates are popular gifts and one of my favorite treats is  Lindt Excellence 99% Cacao Dark Chocolate.  It is delicious, smooth and silky.   Lindt chocolates are available at Tesco and Jaya Grocer.

Himalayan Pink Rock Salt contains beneficial nutrients and minerals that are good for our health.  It is an ideal substitute for your normal table salt.  You can find them in the supermarket like Tesco or Jaya Grocer.  Watsons also carry them.

A low carb or keto gift basket is a great way to go and they are pretty easy to put together.  Any of these single items would make a great gift or keto stocking stuffer for that low carber or ketoer on your gift list!  Whether it is your coworker’s birthday, your anniversary or Mothers’ Day,  if the recipient follows a low-carb lifestyle, then I have got you covered with keto-friendly gifts for every occasion.

Low Carb Tomato Egg Noodle

There is a shop near my office which sells desserts (red bean soup, gingko barley and etc) , economy noodles (fried mee hoon, fried mee), curry chee cheong fun, yam cakes and more.   The only food that I can eat there is the Tomato Egg Noodles.  They have 2 versions which are the dry type and the soup base type.  It is basically noodles with eggs, tomatoes, cucumbers and minced pork.

My version is of course low carb and without noodles.   This is what I had for lunch yesterday.  I was given so many cucumbers that my bowl of tomato egg noodles look like tomato egg zoodles.  It was delicious!

Actually this dish is rather easy to cook but I need to get a zoodle-maker.   On days that I am tired of eating the dishes from the chap fan stall (mixed rice), I would have this Tomato Egg Noodles.

Low Carb Ice Cream or Keto Ice Cream Is Available In Malaysia

So I was at MyTown Shopping Mall over the weekend and I decided to check out Inside Scoop.  This ice-cream shop is missy’s favourite but on that day, she didn’t want to have any ice-cream.  As I have read an article in the newspaper recently about Inside Scoop’s range of ice-cream that is suitable for the diabetics, I just wanted to see what options they have.  Boy was I surprised to know that they have a zero sugar chocolate ice cream which is made with cocoa and sugar substitutes (maltitol, xylitol, erythritol and steviol).

Here is a list of their sugar-free, vegan-friendly ice-cream options.

I got myself the Choc Zero (Zero Sugar Chocolate Ice Cream) scoop.  It was so delicious!

Finally we can have low carb or keto ice-cream in Malaysia.  All you can eat without the guilt!  I hope all of Inside Scoop’s outlets have this low carb / keto-friendly ice-cream.  On the downside,  Choc Zero is considered their Double Premium Flavor hence it is pretty expensive at RM12.10 a scoop.   I guess it’s ok to have it once in a while.

If you are craving for some low carb or keto ice-cream, you know where to go.  You can even try to make your own low carb or keto ice-cream at home eventhough you do not have an ice-cream machine.  Check it out here.

Reduce Food Waste With Green Hero

I just discovered Green Hero when my friend shared a post on her Facebook.  She had bought a bagful of bread at RM1 each through Green Hero.   Good deal right?

A little info about Green Hero (taken from their website – www.greenhero.net)

Green Hero is an online platform for F&B businesses to channel edible food, cut down on wastage and save the environment. Every day, thousands of restaurants, eateries, bakeries, etc. throw away their unsold food after operating hours. This creates tonnes of food surplus, which could have been sold and re-distributed to students who love to save, the lower-income group, orphanages, old folk homes and even charity organizations

Started by a group of youth in Penang,  Green Hero,  sells surplus food including sushi, bread, cakes, pastries, bento boxes and even groceries at discounted prices to a ready pool of consumers. These include college and university students, people struggling on a tight budget and other green activists.  Those who are interested are added into their whatsapp group.  Every day, the green hero / heroine would update the Whatsapp group with surplus food available for that day.  Those who are interested would inform the hero/heroine what they want.  The food will be delivered to the buyer at night and the delivery fee is RM5.

Green Hero is also available in KL now and I just ordered some buns at RM1 each.

These buns are fresh and delicious.  I cannot imagine them being thrown away at the end of the day when the buns are still edible.

I don’t eat them because they are not keto but the rest of my family does.  I also gave them to my colleagues.    So if you would like to enjoy these buns at only RM1 and also help to reduce food wastage, you can check out their FB page here – https://www.facebook.com/theGreenHero/.  There is no minimum quantity to order.

Since 2016, Green Hero has helped more than 70 cafés and restaurants in solving their food surplus problem — equivalent to a whopping 23,000 kilogrammes of excess food.

Keto Cakes from Suchan

So I finally got to try Suchan’s keto cake after I found out that they have keto cakes and best of all, this famous cafe is only an 8-minute drive away from my home.  I am a happy camper.

Address : 20, Jalan Perisa 1, Kuala Lumpur, 58200 Kuala Lumpur
Opening Hours : Monday to Sunday (10am to 6pm)
Tel: 603 79819328

They have an array of keto and non-keto cakes and pastries.   Cosy looking cafe eh?

The shelves on the right are keto cookies.

Keto Choc Avocado cake

Keto Coconut Raspberry cake

Keto New York Cheesecake

Keto almond crackers and keto choc chip at RM38 a tub.

I bought a slice of keto choc avocado cake (RM16.90). It was so delicious!

Hubs bought me a tub of keto almond crackers.  They are very delicious. The ingredients are butter, almond flour, egg whites and salt. No sugar at all.   I love the butter and salty taste of the crackers.

They are about 28 pieces a tub.

So precious that I eat maybe 2 pieces a day *chuckle*

I will definitely go back to try their other keto cakes.  I should have some coffee there some day too. You can check out their website here – https://www.suchan.my/ for more information on their cakes and pastries.

Mooncakes from Ming Yue Confectionary Ipoh

Happy Mid-Autumn Festival Everyone!

A few days ago, a video of people lining up all the way from the backlane to the front of the Ming Yue Confectionery Shop in Ipoh just to buy their mooncakes.  At that time, the shop is still not opened yet.  You can guess how popular Ming Yue Mooncakes are.  They are very traditional in taste and come in a no-frills box.   This old-school bakery in Pasir Pinji is very popular for their peanut-brittle snacks and I heard that during the days leading to the Mid-Autumn Festival, they do not make any peanut brittles but only mooncakes.

So, my sister managed to get a box of mooncake for my family (without having to queue).  Her friend has a bulk order so she had place order with the shop earlier.

A simple box of mooncake

Here are 1 double yolk lotus paste, 1 single yolk lotus paste, 1 single yolk white lotus and 1 mixed fruit.

Ming Yue’s mooncakes are freshly baked and affordable.  Unlike those you find at the malls, the mooncake cost about RM8 a piece.  Alas, I did not eat any because they are not keto mooncakes.  Have you tried Ming Yue’s mooncakes before?
