Top 15 Nostalgic Malaysian Childhood Snacks You Can Get Online

Reminiscent munching – now you shall not be deprived.

As children, it was common for us to snack in secret, regardless of our parents’ permission. Don’t we all consume things that are questionable to our health as a child? But it was oh-so-delicious, how could one resist?

Seeing these snacks today would definitely bring back fond memories of our childhood. Guess what, though? We have found some of these reminiscent snacks online. You’re welcome.

Nano Nano Sweets
From
RM29.00
Check Nano Nano Sweets price below:

This candy is weird, but interesting too because it tastes sour, salty, and sweet (not bitter, thankfully) altogether. I’m pretty sure we all remember this candy’s jingle played on television and on the radio, too!

Nini Choco Sticks
From
RM15.00
Check Nini Choco Sticks price below:

Here’s another one with a jingle that most of us would have known by heart - Nini chocolate celup (celup-celup). Looks similar to Meiji’s Yan Yan but most of us Malaysian kids would pick Nini over Yan Yan any day as it’s more affordable.

What would really suck though, was having too many biscuit sticks and not enough chocolate to dip them in! Estimating is really tough when you’re a kid.

Lemon Tablets Candy
From
RM3.50
Check Lemon Tablets Candy price below:

Never heard of (or tried) these lemon tablets? What a waste! The tangy and salty taste leaves you craving for more once you’ve had it. If you’re planning to try it though, don’t bite into them unless you’re prepared for an intense burst of flavor which will probably overpower your taste buds.

Apollo Chocolate Wafer
From
RM15.90
Check Apollo Chocolate Wafer price below:

This light and delicious chocolate wafer is not only a favorite among the kids but also adults. Remember those goodie bags you get each time there is a class birthday party? You probably would find this among the other snacks and sweets in said goody bag.

Because it’s so light and easy to consume, we usually end up eating more than we should. But, did it matter?

Haw Flakes
From
RM21.60
Check Haw Flakes price below:

You’ve probably seen these coin-like candy everywhere and probably wondered what it was. They’re some sort of sweet made from Chinese hawthorn, hence the name haw flakes. Some adults actually consume this along with bitter Chinese medicine to ease the process of swallowing horrible tasting herbs. The more you know!

Murakawa bubblegum
From
RM9.60
Check Murakawa bubblegum price below:

Remember your first time trying bubblegum? For many of us, this bubblegum would probably have been the first we’ve ever had. Being able to blow a big bubble and popping it later was a big achievement back then. On top of that, putting on the temporary tattoos which came along with the bubblegum was quite delightful too.

Polo Peppermint Candy
From
RM4.30
Check Polo Peppermint Candy price below:

We remember this being the only mint candy we were allowed to have as kids, probably because it’s more sweet than minty. Bringing this to school would mean having to share it (either willingly or unwillingly) with your friends and most times, the entire classroom too.

Kinos Tora
No Brand
From
RM22.50
Check Kinos Tora price below:

Honestly, who actually buys these boxes for the candy? We all know its for those surprise toys within – you’ll never know what you were going to get. It would have seemed like the chocolate or candies were more like fillers for the toys, and not the other way around.

Ice Gem Biscuits
From
RM12.20
Check Ice Gem Biscuits price below:

Aesthetically pleasing as well as tasty, no one could say no to these ice gem biscuits. They are basically plain biscuits topped with colorful, sugary icing. Most of us would just pick off the icing from the biscuit and eat it without having any second thoughts for the poor biscuit.

Mamee Monster Snack
Mamee
From
RM14.00
Check Mamee Monster Snack price below:

We kids would debate about the best way to eat it – crush it, or eat it the way it is? Regardless, Mamee Monster was a snack we’re sure every child grew up with. It was also rewarding when we found little gifts in the Mamee packets like stickers and temporary tattoos.
