Question 2

Accepted Answer

A soufflé pancake is a Japanese-style pancake known for its extremely light and fluffy texture.

At Panda Desserts in Newmarket Auckland, our soufflé pancakes are made fresh to order.

Question 3

3. Why do soufflé pancakes take longer to prepare?

The preparation takes a little longer, but the result is a soft and delicate dessert that is well worth the wait.

Question 4

4. What are House Special Sweet Soups?

Accepted Answer

House Special Sweet Soups are traditional Cantonese dessert soups made with carefully selected ingredients such as red beans, coconut milk, taro, and other natural ingredients.

They can be served warm or chilled and are especially comforting during cooler evenings in Auckland.

Question 5

5. What is shaved milk ice?

Accepted Answer

Shaved milk ice is a soft frozen dessert with a smooth, melt-in-your-mouth texture. We use a specialized machine that transforms our house-made milk ice base from liquid directly into a fine, fluffy snow-like structure.

Compared to traditional shaved ice, shaved milk ice has a much smoother texture and a richer milk flavor.

Our shaved milk ice is typically served with toppings such as sea salt cheese foam and coconut crisps, and some varieties also include fruits such as banana, strawberry, or mango.

Question 6

6. What flavors of milk pudding do you offer?

Accepted Answer

Our milk pudding is the classic Cantonese double skin milk pudding, known for its smooth texture, rich milk flavor, and lightly sweet taste.

The pudding itself is served in its traditional original flavor, and customers can add toppings such as taro paste, red beans, or ice cream to create different flavor combinations.

Double skin milk pudding is a refreshing and comforting dessert that many customers enjoy after a meal.

Question 7

7. Do you serve milk tea?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Our milk tea is made using high-quality tea leaves sourced directly from a tea estate and paired with Anchor Blue milk, creating a smooth drink with a rich tea aroma.

If you enjoy the taste of real tea, you will likely love our milk tea.

Customers can adjust sweetness levels (such as no sugar or half sugar) and choose their preferred temperature or ice level, including hot, less ice, or no ice.

We also offer several non-tea milk drinks that are suitable for children or for customers who are sensitive to caffeine in the evening. Popular options include Brown Sugar Boba Milk and Red Bean Milk.
