1. Tiger buns (S$2)

After the popular shark buns come tiger buns, similarly priced at S$2 each.

These buns by IKEA are filled with kaya and are available at all their restaurants from Jan. 17 - Feb. 28.

2. Tiger-shaped bread (S$1.80/S$2.20)

Designed by local bakery chain BreadTalk, the Prosperity Tiger (S$1.80) and Tiger Dance (S$2.20) soft buns are made to look like a tiger head and tiger bum respectively.

Prosperity Tiger (head) is stuffed with cheesy corn sausage while chocolate custard fills Tiger Dance (bum).

Chocolate piping is used to render the animal's features.

Put them together to make a whole tiger:

3. Tiger pineapple tarts (S$13.80)

Ah Mah Homemade Cake is bringing back its animal cookies, this time in the form of tigers.

The Hoo Hoo Cookies, which go for S$13.80 per bottle, are individually hand-painted.

According to the brand, these pineapple cookies are made with premium butter and a "mildly sweet" pineapple paste filling.

You can get them at a discounted price of S$9.80 with any bundle deal of Pineapple Tarts and Coconut Tarts (S$28.80), or with any purchases above S$50 in a single receipt.

4. Tiger sugee cookies (S$12.80)

You'll find these tiger sugee cookies at DJ Bakery for S$12.80 per bottle.

The bakery labels the new item as "100 per cent homemade."

We spotted these at the Thomson Plaza outlet, and it appears that the cookies are currently not for sale online.

5. Tiger whole cake (S$98)

From Goodwood Park comes the Tiger Gateau, a striped creation of vanilla pound cake with orange and brown layers.

The look is achieved with hand-piped brown-tinted buttercream and ears and a tail made with icing.

The cake is available for takeaway or delivery from Jan. 7 at The Deli for S$98 nett (1kg).

6. Tiger yusheng

i) Peony Jade Restaurant

In case anyone forgets what zodiac year it is, Peony Jade Restaurant's Tiger Yee Sang will serve as a good reminder.

Priced at S$388 for 12 pax, the platter consists of Asian lobster carpaccio, Australian whole 8-abalone, hamachi (yellowtail), salmon, and more.

Peony Jade currently has a pop-up booth at Takashimaya's CNY fair, in addition to their restaurant at Keppel Club.

There's also an online ordering system, and while we do see a number of CNY items, the Tiger Yee Sang does not appear to be available at time of writing.

The site also warns of the inevitable delivery delays due to the demand on the eve, so take heed, probably.

In any case, cool presentation, no harm looking at photos of it ¯ \_(ツ)_/¯

Update on Jan 11: A spokesperson for Peony Jade has confirmed that the dish is available for ordering. One can do so by calling their restaurant managers at 6276 9138.

ii) Golden Peony

The second yu sheng is Golden Peony’s, featuring a sugar tiger perched on the Chinese salad.

Toss up a combination of hamachi (yellowtail) sashimi, snow crab, tiger prawns at a pretty price of S$118++ for five pax.

This is available from Jan. 17 - Feb. 15.

Besides dine-in at the restaurant in Conrad Centennial hotel, the yu sheng is also available for pick-up or delivery.
