Asians have tons of desserts, you probably have limited your search based on preconceived notions of what a dessert has to be.

could you point me in the right direction?

>>12167824
Yeah, Asia. Are you asking me to tell you what Asian desserts are? Because I'll point you to Google, 4chan isn't a search engine.

>>12167813
and you're right I guess i never thought outside the box enough.

i'm just trying to start a conversation with people that might have had them before...yeah I could google it but what's the point of a board like this?

>I could google it but what's the point of a board like this?
The point is finding information.

How often do you do things because you have to do them?

>3 uniques in 9 posts
let this be a lesson to you faggot
no one comes to an imageboard for back to back dialog. you aren't meant to reply to every single post in the thread to force conversation. if you want to feel good by imitating friendships, go to reddit where people can upvote you and replies are nested

Made some butter cookies recently flavored with star anise extract and rolled in turbinado. Works great with coffee and tea, and not too many calories.

Moon cakes are coming up in August. otherwise most of what I can think of id stuff like mochi, anything matcha flavored, and things with red bean paste.

reddit is fake though, it's just a bunch of people trying to befriend you or dox you or judge you on your post history. Here it's just pure dialogue, same with aol chats or youtube video chat rooms nobody really knows eachother it's just banter. But nvm I just wanted to start a thread about desserts not talk to some fucking jerks who have reddit living rent free in their heads. and would rather post honk honk memes than actually talk about something.

anyways op, I've been trying to get into baking and have made various things like cakes/lemon bars etc... from scratch and giving them to my friends to judge
plan on starting to make traditional persian desserts like halva and shole zard (probably not what you think of when you think of asian, but yeah) sometime soon

kek, room temperature IQs

> discover Asian confectioneries
There is nothing to discover. No tradition in leavened dough, butter and eggs applications, fruits and preserves. And don't even get me started on chocolate or the awesome applications of distilled fruit liquors. It's a wasteland. Middle East, Levant and Persia have some nice stuff but that's about it.
