Most Wonderful Time of the Year

Growing up, it was the most exciting time of the year when every visiting relative or family friend came by with a box.

A Thrillist article said, these golden chocolate treats become a status symbol for immigrants because of the illusion of wealth and luxury the gold wrappers gave. In Hong Kong, they're called "Gold Sand" (金莎 / gam1 saa1), which became a marker of social class as gifts, especially during Chinese New Year.

Have fun eating a whole box in one sitting!
