May 2025 – Buddha’s Birthday
Celebrating Buddha’s Birthday with Joy and Flavour
Buddha’s Birthday is a vibrant celebration across many parts of Asia, from the lantern-lit streets of South Korea to the peaceful temples of Thailand. At Oisoy, we took inspiration from these joyful festivities to create a snack box filled with light, bright, and tropical treats that honour the spirit of reflection, renewal, and of course—sharing delicious food with others. 🌸
Here’s what was inside May’s Buddha’s Birthday-themed box:
🧁 Orion Custard Cake (South Korea)
Soft, golden, and filled with rich vanilla custard, this fluffy treat is perfect with a cup of tea while you take a mindful break.
🍍 Mogu Mogu Pineapple Drink (Thailand)
Refreshing, tropical, and fun to chew! Mogu Mogu drinks come with real nata de coco pieces—sip, chew, and enjoy a flavour burst that feels like sunshine in a bottle.
🎂 Oreo Birthday Cookies (USA twist on a classic!)
Because every birthday needs cake! These birthday cake-flavoured Oreos are sweet, crunchy, and totally addictive.
🍟 Oishi Potato Fries (Philippines)
Lightly salted and seriously snackable, these potato fries are a crisp, savoury contrast to all the tropical sweetness in the box.
🥭 Cocon Mango Gummies (Thailand)
Soft, juicy, and bursting with real mango flavour—these gummies taste like a tropical getaway in every bite.
🍜 Mama Shrimp Creamy Tom Yum Noodles (Thailand)
A creamy take on Thailand’s classic hot and sour soup. These noodles are spicy, tangy, and brimming with flavour.
🐔 GGE Chicken Ramen Snack (Taiwan)
Crunchy ramen bites seasoned with a savoury chicken flavour—great for snacking straight from the packet.
🍰 Oriental Layer Cake (Malaysia)
A light and fluffy layered sponge cake with sweet creamy filling, perfect for a little moment of indulgence.
🍌 Mayasi Crispy Crepes – Choco Banana Flavour (Malaysia)
Crispy, flaky crepes wrapped around a rich choco-banana filling. Crunchy on the outside, creamy on the inside—a total delight.
🍡 Mango Cream Coated Biscuit Sticks (Vietnam)
Like Pocky’s tropical cousin! These biscuit sticks are coated in a luscious mango cream, ideal for sweet snackers.
🍍🥥 Pineapple Coconut Candy (China)
Chewy, sweet, and full of tropical flavour—this candy is like a beach holiday in a bite.
😮 Durian Cake (Malaysia)
Love it or fear it—durian is the “king of fruits”! This soft cake brings a unique taste of Southeast Asia for the truly adventurous.
🥥 Coconut Sticky Jelly (Vietnam)
Soft and bouncy with a hint of coconut sweetness, this jelly is a nod to the kinds of traditional treats often shared during Buddhist celebrations.
🌼 A Snack Box for Mindful Indulgence
Just like Buddha’s Birthday is about reflection, gratitude, and joy, we’ve designed this month’s box to give you a little taste of those same values. Whether you’re sipping pineapple Mogu Mogu in the sun, sharing custard cakes with friends, or bravely trying durian for the first time—this box is all about enjoying the moment.
