After getting overwhelmingly positive feedback during their Chinese New Year debut as part of exclusive Fortune Bags, local favourites Angel Brand and Kantin Lab are bringing back their limited-edition Gula Melaka and Mala flavours, alongside the all-time fan favourite Salted Egg Yolk flavour in a new triple pack, available in stores and online as of 1 May 2026.
Snack lovers quickly fell in love with these flavours thanks to their unique twist on classic Malaysian profiles. The Gula Melaka variant, inspired by Angel Brand’s Sweet Soy Sauce, delivers a deep, caramelised sweetness with a subtle smokiness, a flavour profile that feels both nostalgic and indulgent. And then there’s the Mala flavour, inspired by Angel Brand’s Mala Seasoning, which offers a bold, numbing heat drawn from Sichuan-style spices, reimagined in tempeh form for added texture and bite. Paired with Kantin Lab’s creamy, savoury Salted Egg chips, the triple pack balances sweetness, spice and richness in a way that reflects the diversity of Malaysian tastes.
A proudly Malaysian co-creation, rooted in tradition
With a heritage spanning over 81 years, Angel Brand is one of Malaysia’s most established and trusted sauce makers, recognised for its Selected Light Soy Sauce and signature Bean Paste that have become staples to home cooking and festive meals across generations. In this collaboration, Angel plays a pivotal role in the co-creation of the flavours, contributing its long-standing expertise in sauce craftsmanship and flavour development to ensure authenticity, balance and depth of taste.
Partnering with Angel Brand is Kantin Lab, a local snack brand known for its innovative approach to flavour. By translating Angel’s culinary expertise into a modern snack, Kantin Lab brings the collaboration to life through a contemporary, shareable product designed for today’s consumers.
The Angel x Kantin Lab limited-edition collaboration will be available for a limited time only at selected retailers, convenience stores and online platforms. Continued availability will be determined by consumer response following the comeback launch.
Bring the flavour home
For those who are craving these offerings, there is good news beyond the triple pack. Angel Brand’s Sweet Soy Sauce and Mala Seasoning, the very sauces that inspired these flavours, are available at selected retail outlets nationwide. Whether you are recreating the Gula Melaka depth in a marinade or experimenting with Mala heat in a stir-fry, the flavours that started it all are yours to explore at home.
