When something gets hot in the West like Krispy cream donuts jump on it and use the hype from the Web to make it popular

Happy if I had a pair of Hostess Twinkies....(are you thinking something else, other than those sugary, cream filled cakes)

Go for something healthier.....whole grained products. Avoid milk, cream and butter (many asians are lactose intolerant)

granola bars....less sugar

I imagine even Thais know that the gluten free scam and foods that taste like gravel and/or straw era is over.

I do not want to derail the original thread but lactose intollerance may be a relevant issue due to the OP wanting to sell sweet snacks over savoury.

It is my understanding that lactose intollerance is mainly an inability to consume milk, not butter or cheese. Many Europeans cannot drink cow milk these days and drink Soya etc. I do know more Europeans than Asians - but I still know quite a few Asians as my TGF is (unsurprisingly) Asian. All her friends love cheese and can drink milk. Meanwhile, I know many Europeans that avoid these products (myself included). I am not sure that lactose intollerance is as big a problem as some think. Lactose intollerance affects Africans and Arabs too yet they consume dairy products in abundance.

How do Starbucks etc sell Caffe Lattes in LOS?

Also Italians are supposed to be lactose intollerant (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lactose_intolerance) yet they eat ridiculous amounts of dairy products (milky coffee for breakfast, cheese sauces and creamy desserts).

If the end customers of the OP can eat eclairs, I am sure they can eat a pastéis de natas or a rissóis de camarão, particularly if the latter was made with a fiery sauce instead of a solely creamy sauce.

Obviously, a tasty snack that avoids all cream, butter and cheese may be the winner in LOS!

The fact is that cheese, yogurt and even butter are OK for lactose intolerance. Milk, cream and ice cream are to be avoided. Most of the lactose intolerant people can eat little amount of lactose in pastries without problem.
