Happy Holidays!
Make something up...take all the sweet exotic fruits from the far east and throw them into tapioca pudding. Tapioca comes from there....so just embellish it a bit. Tangerines, kiwis, coconuts are a big thing too.Chinese dessert recipes?
as far as I know dessert is more of a Western idea

but serving fresh fruit to end a meal is great

coconut ice cream is very tasty and has become a popular end to a Chinese meal

I love red bean buns and they are very sweet but I never have them for dessert, just a snack
