Wholesome Egg Tart Lamp Melts Your Troubles Away With A Gentle Smile
If you were tempted to dim sum lights, just to make space for this adorable xlb dumpling lamp, this next one will give you lots of fillings.
Behold, the warm, gentle, wholesome glow of a freshly baked dan tat – Cantonese for egg tart – night lamp.
We’re not sure how, but Smoko – the brains behind heckin’ adorable boba tumblers – has done it again.
They’ve made innocuous dim sum entrees so adorable that we wouldn’t mind shelling out tons of money to have them grace our households.

Egg tarts are beloved for their creamy filling, paired with a buttery & crispy shortbread crust.

The egg tart lamp – aka punnily named Dan – appears to be baked to perfection in the same way.
With a sleepy eyed ‘-_-‘ smile, he looks as though he’s fresh out of the oven, constantly emitting a warm yellow glow, ever so gently.
Palm-sized & battery-powered
Dan the egg tart lamp will also fit snugly within your palms, in case you want to move him around to show your guests.
That’s a pretty sizeable portion for dim sum enthusiasts, for sure. Only, you’ll get to enjoy the weight of the pastry in your hands, without the guilt of the calories.
Yogurt drink lamps are ‘healthier’ than BBT
We think finishing off a pastry snack without a drink seems a tad unsatisfying, so we’ll be introducing one more of Dan’s friends from the collection.
Yuko Yogurt Drink Night Light – S$21.80 (US$16)

90s-liners will recall guzzling Yakult and Vitagen drinks by the carton, so Yuko’s appearance shouldn’t surprise you too much.
Think of the adorable yogurt drink night light as a ‘healthier’ alternative to the cute Boba night lamp.
To prepare for your new night companions, do remember to prepare 3 x AAA batteries to power the lamps — they don’t come included in the purchase.
