Snowflake is the No. 1 Taiwanese dessert choice in Malaysia and South East Asian Region. Everything inside the bowl of Snowflake is hand made and every of their product is made fresh daily.

Have my first visit to the Snowflake Taiwanese Dessert Secrets located within the busy inner square of SS15, Subang Jaya yesterday night. The location is just a stone throw to Inti and Taylors college. As you know, most of the students will have their visit to the so-called-dessert shop once they feel they want to grab a bite of snow ice. Besides, some of them will go there after they have finished their class with their classmates.

As you can see from the picture above, the shop is crowded with peoples and there aren't any sit left once I entered the shop. Some of them are waiting for their dessert to be done by taking the "beeping UFO" (funcky apparatus) back to their tables while waiting at their sits. They will get to know when to take their dessert from the counter once the "beeping UFO" starts giving out a red 'beeping' alarm and vibrates. Meanwhile, I can see that most of them are snowflakes lovers as there will sure be a bowl of snowflake on their tables' each. From my observation, they will spend most of their time chit-chatting with each others while they are having their dessert in the same time. Some of them will pamper themselves by having a bowl of Snowflake in order to release their stress and relax themselves when they are having their exam tomorrow.

This is the place where order and payment is made at the same time. Other than that, you can also see that the waiters and waitresses are busy most of the time. This shows that Snowflakes has become a popular dessert in Subang Jaya area.

At 9.15pm, the number of peoples increased. This can be seen from the picture where people starts to queue up to order for their dessert. Some of them are searching for empty place to sit. One of the waiter is busy cleaning up the table after others left.

I have ordered a bowl of soya ice series and a bowl of snowflake bestseller on that night to have a try, and I have fallen in love with it's taste. There are grass jelly, pearl, red bean, barley, taroballs and others inside. Thinking to go and grab a bite again next time. Snowflakes really a dessert which can make people enjoy and happy. It has became most of the students' favourite. I bet this is the reason why it managed to attract most of the students to come to the shop.
