As seen at Purdy’s Chocolate Market Mall. Please note that Lychee
Packet sadly does not contain any lychee, and is actually a normal
‘lai see’ red envelope.

Sigh, marketing ploys. Is the chocolate at least shaped or moulded into something “Chinese”?
Hi Sharon, thanks for commenting! Unfortunately we didn’t actually buy any since we were pretty disappointed with the lack of lychee to begin with. However, the shelf above these lychee packets had medallion-shaped chocolates with the Chinese word for “Ox”, and a picture of such Ox as well.
