If you're planning a cultural trip to Bangkok and want to explore something truly meaningful, why not immerse yourself in the world of traditional Thai desserts? One of the most beautiful and iconic Thai sweets is " Luk Chup " a royal dessert that reflects Thai craftsmanship, creativity, and love for details. In this article, we share the delightful experience of Shana, a student from Taiwan, who took her first-ever Luk Chup class at Sriwangying, a school known for preserving and teaching authentic Thai royal arts.
What is Luk Chup?
Luk Chup is a traditional Thai sweet made from mung bean paste. It's shaped into miniature fruits and vegetables like mangoes, chilies, oranges, and corn, and then delicately hand-painted with food coloring. Finally, it is coated in a thin layer of jelly to give it a shiny, appealing finish. These treats are not only delicious but also a visual delight that demonstrates the intricate artistry of Thai dessert-making.
Meet Shana: A Passionate Student from Taiwan
Shana, a sweet and enthusiastic visitor from Taiwan, joined our Luk Chup class at Sriwangying during her stay in Bangkok. For Shana and her family, Luk Chup is more than just a dessert. Every time they visit Thailand, they make sure to buy these colorful little sweets to take home. Their love for Luk Chup sparked a deeper curiosity in Shana, leading her to research where and how she could learn to make them herself.
After exploring various options, Shana found Sriwangying and felt an instant connection. She chose to book the class here because of our reputation for authentic Thai royal arts, professional teaching environment, and the hands-on nature of the workshops.
A Cultural Experience Beyond Expectations
On the day of her class, Shana was warmly welcomed by our staff and introduced to the serene, inspiring environment of Sriwangying. From the moment she began, it was clear how passionate she was. She listened intently, asked thoughtful questions, and followed every step with care.
The process began with preparing mung bean paste from scratch. Next came the shaping stage, where she molded each piece into tiny versions of real fruits. The painting session followed a moment of pure joy where Shana let her creativity shine. The final step involved glazing the sweets with jelly to give them that signature glossy look.
Shana told us after the class: "Everything is beyond my expectation. The class, the staff, the environment everything is perfect!" Her satisfaction and glowing feedback made the whole experience even more special for our team.
