Shantea Dessert opened its first outlet at Mid Valley Megamall in Kuala Lumpur, introducing a modern twist on beloved local ingredients, blending tradition and modern indulgence in every bite.
Just in time for the lead-up to Visit Malaysia 2026, the brand reimagines local ingredients into contemporary treats, offering a delicious introduction to Malaysian culture for both locals and international visitors.
By weaving local flavors into contemporary creations, Shantea Dessert introduces Malaysian culture through dessert to international audiences, many of whom may be discovering it for the first time.
“Malaysia’s culinary heritage is one of our greatest treasures and initiatives like Shantea Dessert help showcase it to the world in new and exciting ways,” said Seputeh MP Teresa Kok who officiated the event. “With Visit Malaysia 2026 just around the corner, this concept plays an important role in introducing our rich flavors to tourists who may be discovering them for the first time.”
The Mid Valley outlet is the first of three planned stores, with nationwide expansion and future regional ventures in the pipeline.
Shantea Dessert managing director Nevinn Leow said, “What excites us most is seeing people’s reactions when they try our desserts for the first time. Whether it’s the comfort of familiar flavors or the surprise of something new, Shantea Dessert is about creating moments of joy that people will remember.”
At its core, Shantea Dessert is more than just a dessert brand. Built on three guiding principles: Honest Ingredients, Heritage at Heart and Modern Delight, carrying forward the Shan philosophy of nourishing cuisine through time-honored ingredients and botanical wisdom.
Each creation reimagines treasured elements such as bird’s nest, tau fu fah, lotus seeds, peach gum, fish scale collagen, and coconut into desserts and drinks that balance wellness with indulgence.
Designed to delight the palate while reminding us of the value of everyday nourishment, Shantea Dessert embodies the belief that wellness can be both beautiful and joyful.
Born from this philosophy, Shantea Dessert outlets are designed as calm yet vibrant sanctuaries; lifestyle spaces for today’s mindful consumers seeking balance, beauty and cultural connection in every bite.
