Food in Singapore had always been a national obsession, and apart from the main meals within a day, Singaporeans love to indulge themselves with the in-between meals. Snacking has become a daily routine for many, and like the main meals, there's plenty of variety available for grabs.

Savory and delectable items, namely, Lapis Sagu, Kueh Dadar, Bao (Chinese Buns) and Kueh Tutu that delight the senses are depicted on stamps in a relaxed and cartoonish way, which also brings a smile to those who are eating it.

Finger-length cylindrical, green and a little soft, Kueh Dadar (coconut pancake) is the little green thing that will excite anyone at any time of the day. Wrapped with a skin that's made of sifted plain flour and added pandan juice or "green" food coloring, the fillings is usually stir-fried grated coconut flesh with palm or brown sugar.
