Ji Xiang Ang Ku Kueh at Bukit Panjang Plaza represents one of Singapore's most revered traditional confectionery destinations, operating from Level 1 in front of units #01-64/65 where it continues a cherished culinary tradition that has delighted Singaporeans since 1988. Specializing in handmade Ang Ku Kueh, these traditional tortoise shell-shaped cakes made with sticky glutinous rice flour embody the authentic Fujian Chinese heritage while incorporating Nonya preparation techniques that have evolved to suit local tastes and preferences. The establishment serves residents from Bukit Panjang, Teck Whye, Choa Chu Kang, and surrounding areas with genuine artisanal confections that represent more than just desserts – they are cultural treasures that connect modern Singapore with its rich Chinese heritage and traditional food craftsmanship.
The signature Ang Ku Kueh features a distinctively chewy red pastry skin made from glutinous rice flour, coconut milk, sugar, and natural food coloring, filled with an impressive variety of both traditional and innovative flavors including classic peanut and sweet bean options alongside modern variations such as coconut, corn, yam, black sesame, cempedak, and seasonal durian offerings. What sets Ji Xiang apart is their commitment to traditional handcrafting methods, with experienced artisans rolling, shaping, filling, and molding each kueh individually to ensure consistent quality and authentic texture that distinguishes handmade products from mass-produced alternatives. Operating daily from 11 AM to 9 PM, the shop provides convenient access for customers seeking authentic traditional snacks, special occasion treats, or cultural foods that celebrate Singapore's diverse culinary heritage and satisfy cravings for time-honored flavors.
As one of nine Ji Xiang Confectionery locations across Singapore and arguably the most well-known ang ku kueh shop in the country, this Bukit Panjang Plaza outlet benefits from the mall's excellent accessibility and steady customer traffic that includes both regular customers and curious visitors discovering traditional foods.

I was there enquiring about the pricing when the staff did not make any effort to engage or serve. She merely redirected me to the chart and asked me to see for myself. I was there "studying" the price when an elderly couple also asked the staff the same question. They, of course, received the same treatment and walked away without buying any kueh.

I couldn't fault the food and the atmosphere. But the auntie at the Bukit Panjang outlet was really rude and unhelpful (19 Aug, 8:10 PM). When I asked her questions about the flavors, her tone and facial expression were insinuating I was dumb. For instance, I asked what the 'coconut' flavor was – whether it was gula melaka or shredded coconut – and she replied, "coconut is coconut." She was also coughing when I wanted to make payment and said it was either cash or PayNow. (I had asked for PayWave, which was shown on the board as possible, though I suspect this was because the stall was closing in 45 minutes.) The entire experience was poor, and I will not return to this stall again. This left a poor impression of the Jixiang franchise.

I highly advise avoiding this shop. I bought vouchers from Shopee. The auntie was rude, complaining that her customers usually buy 3 for $10 deals and asking why we bought from Shopee. She wasn't clear what she wanted to see on the Shopee voucher. I told her we bought five sets. She even commented on why we only chose one flavor, saying we must really like it. When trying to redeem the Shopee voucher, she kept saying she wanted to see '这个这个' (this, this). We didn't know what she wanted. She wanted us to talk to Shopee about everything, telling us to ask Shopee why they sold it that way. We only wanted to redeem the akk. She made it so difficult. And look how she squeezed five sets of akk into one small plastic bag. She said if I had any comments, I should go and leave a review. So here's the review, asking everyone to avoid this shop at all costs!

Abacus seed is getting worse. While I was redeeming my Shopee digital voucher, the auntie was somehow digging in the wagon for me instead of taking two boxes directly from the display. One of the boxes, as pictured, was TERRIBLY LITTLE. It couldn't even fill half the box. The other was still acceptable, with a few more pieces exceeding half the box.

Friendly auntie at the shop. Doris was flexible with my Shopee redemption. Love the akk here. Have been eating this since I was staying in Cantonment. So glad that they **opened** an outlet here.
