PASALUBONG FROM THAILAND: COCONUT BISCUITS

The reason why we discovered this Pasalubong is because of the "lavish" taste tests available throughout the King Power Duty Free Mall in Bangkok, Thailand.

I don't know if this is a daily fare, or a free tasting special!
Well, it was quite effective because our group did buy so much Pasalubong there.

These are the coconut biscuits we mean:
Original Coconut Crispy Rolls

Coconut Crispy Rolls Cocoa Dip

the coconut roll side
Coconut Waffles with Fine Chocolate
In the box, they include a bit of Thai culture





We actually had a whole range of many other delicacies (which we tasted) and it is up to us to choose which type you like or the person you intend to give to.
Price range for a box: 100 gm  (3.05oz) (20 pcs.) (50 g x 2 packs) is about 160 to 200 Thai Baht.


In the end, it turned out bulky because of the beautiful boxes, so sometimes I wonder if this would be an easier give-away... the good old keychains!



Whatever the pasalubong would be, it is always the thought that counts!!!

  6. This was such a fun read—Thai coconut snacks really make the perfect pasalubong! The variety mentioned, especially those crispy coconut rolls and chocolate-dipped versions, sounds incredibly tempting. It’s easy to see why tasting samples at places like duty-free shops can lead to buying more than planned—they’re just too addictive to resist .
    What stands out is how coconut-based treats are such a big part of Thailand’s snack culture, offering that light crunch with a naturally sweet, tropical flavor. It also shows how important quality coconut ingredients are behind these products. That’s where brands like JCP International come in, especially in supporting the industry with reliable Desiccated Coconut Product in Thailand
    used across snacks, desserts, and even innovative packaged goods.
    Thanks for sharing this—it definitely brings back that excitement of picking the perfect edible souvenirs from Thailand!
