Delight of Sweet Soup

Sweet soup is a popular dessert in many Asian cultures, offering a light and comforting treat that can be enjoyed warm or chilled. Known as "tong sui" (糖水) in Chinese, which translates to "sugar water," these desserts are made with a variety of ingredients such as beans, nuts, seeds, fruits, sago, and coconut milk.

Nowadays, sweet soup is widely enjoyed, with many dessert shops and stalls in Malaysia, especially in Kuala Lumpur, Penang, and Ipoh. While the exact number of stores is unknown, tong sui remains widely available, especially in areas with a strong Chinese community, such as Kuala Lumpur, Penang, and Ipoh. From traditional street stalls to modern dessert cafés, sweet soup continues to be a favorite treat enjoyed by many.
