No Scones? No Problem: Halal-Friendly Snacks That Belong at Tea-Time

| Delifrance Singapore

Key Takeaways

  • Halal snacks can be just as indulgent and elegant as traditional tea-time favourites, with options like mini fruit tarts, madeleines, and quiches.
  • Delifrance offers a wide variety of halal-friendly French pastries, combining classic flavours with beautiful presentation for any tea-time spread.
  • You don’t need scones to enjoy a sophisticated tea-time—mix sweet and savoury halal snacks like chouquettes and mini croissants for a balanced experience.

When it comes to tea-time treats, scones may be the traditional go-to, but they’re far from the only option on the table. In Singapore, where culture, cuisine, and community come together, it’s only natural to want a tea-time spread that is both flavourful and inclusive. And that’s where Delifrance, the go-to French bakery, steps in with a lineup of halal snacks that are perfect for every gathering.

Whether you’re hosting friends, planning a family get-together, or simply treating yourself to an elegant afternoon break, here are some standout pastries that deserve a spot at your table.

1. Mini Fruit Tarts with Buttery Crusts

Delicate and colourful, mini fruit tarts are the definition of tea-time elegance. Each tart starts with a crisp, buttery crust that cradles smooth vanilla custard and is topped with a selection of fresh, juicy fruits, think strawberries, kiwi, blueberries, and more. They’re not just pretty to look at; they bring a burst of freshness that balances well with floral teas or a cooling green tea. These tarts are ideal halal snacks for those who like a hint of sweetness without going overboard.

2. Madeleines: Light, Elegant, and Infinitely Dunkable

Soft, moist, and shaped like little seashells, madeleines are a staple of French tea-time culture. With their subtly sweet flavour and fluffy texture, these little cakes are just begging to be dipped into your favourite brew. Pair them with black tea, rooibos, or even a mild herbal infusion for a truly comforting experience. These halal snacks are the kind that vanish quickly, so be sure to serve plenty!

3. Savoury Quiche Bites for a Balanced Spread

A good tea-time spread isn’t all about sweetness; it’s about balance. And that’s where savoury mini quiches come in. With flaky crusts and creamy fillings like cheese, spinach, or fresh herbs, these little bites are rich, satisfying, and a perfect counterpoint to sweet pastries. They add depth to your spread while offering another crowd-pleasing halal snack option for guests who crave something more substantial.

4. Viennoiseries, Puffs, and Chouquettes for a Touch of Paris

If you want to add variety and texture to your tea-time, Delifrance’s range of snacks includes an assortment of classic viennoiseries. Mini croissants, flaky and golden, sit beautifully alongside airy custard puffs and sugar-dusted chouquettes. These pastries add a light, whimsical flair to your spread while bringing authentic flavours straight from a French pastry kitchen. They’re easy to share and incredibly versatile, just what you need for a well-rounded afternoon tea.

At Delifrance, we’re proud to be a trusted halal bakery in Singapore that never compromises on flavour, texture, or tradition.
