IKEA Singapore Releases Halal Cookies & Cakes For Hari Raya
As the fasting month approaches and the subsequent Hari Raya celebration does too, many Muslims are probably planning their preparations already.
Apart from seeking the most fashionable outfits and new homeware, adorning the house with sweet treats like kuehs, cookies and cakes is a must.
This year, they’ll be able to find all that at the most unsuspecting place – Swedish furntiure store IKEA – which has released halal cookies and cakes for the upcoming festivity.
IKEA has halal snacks for Hari Raya
In a post on Friday (9 Apr), Facebook page Singapore Atrium Sale (SAS) shared about the recent arrival of Hari Raya snacks at IKEA’s Tampines outlet.
With a myriad of cookies and cakes to choose from, you’ll be sure to impress your friends and family this festive season.
Out of all the treats, many households would likely need at least a set of the quintessential Layer Cake or kueh lapis.

For those who want a twist to the traditional, IKEA offers a cranberry option for just a dollar more.

The Swedish store also does a quirky take on the old-school pineapple balls by adding cranberries to them.

If the cranberry galore isn’t really up your alley, go for the safer option of Red Velvet Cheese Cookies instead, which you can’t go wrong with.

While you’re at it, add the crumbly Cheese Bangkit to your basket, along with the equally buttery Sugee Cashew.

With a whole lot of affordable options to choose from, taking a quick stop from your regular IKEA homeware run won’t be a bad idea after all.
