THE Tan sisters, whose bond spans over five decades, gather each Chinese New Year in Penang to celebrate their connection through the joyful act of baking festive treats together.

This annual tradition is marked by the lovingly prepared kuih kapit (love letters) and kuih ros (beehive crackers), which bring warmth and nostalgia to their celebrations.
