A muah chee live station is a freshly operated traditional snack station set up at your event, manned by a dedicated FunCo operator who cuts, coats, and serves warm glutinous rice balls rolled in crushed peanuts on-site throughout your event. FunCo supplies muah chee live stations across Singapore for corporate D&Ds, family days, heritage carnivals, CNY celebrations, and community gatherings.
Soft, chewy, warm, and deeply nostalgic — muah chee is the beloved Singapore heritage snack that needs no introduction to any Singaporean over the age of thirty, and no second serving to win over anyone younger.


Muah chee — written 麻糬 in Chinese, derived from the Hokkien pronunciation — is a traditional Chinese and Singaporean glutinous rice snack with roots in Fujian and Teochew cuisine. It is made from glutinous rice flour steamed or cooked into a soft, stretchy dough, then cut into bite-sized pieces and rolled generously in a coating of crushed roasted peanuts and sugar.
The texture is what makes muah chee instantly memorable — a soft, chewy, slightly sticky dough that pulls gently as you bite, balanced by the crunch and nuttiness of the peanut coating. It is warm, comforting, and satisfying in a way that few other traditional snacks achieve.
For generations, muah chee was sold by uncles at pasar malams, school canteens, and hawker centres across Singapore — typically cut directly from a large tray using scissors or a blade, then tossed in peanut coating before being skewered on toothpicks. It remains one of the most universally loved traditional Singapore snacks across all ages and ethnicities.

Muah chee occupies a unique position among live food stations — it is simultaneously a heritage performance, a tactile comfort food experience, and one of Singapore's most broadly loved traditional snacks.

For events where cross-cultural appeal, comfort food warmth, and fast high-throughput heritage service are the priority — muah chee is the strongest heritage live station choice. Many clients book muah chee alongside ding ding candy and dragon beard candy for a complete no-power Chinese heritage snack zone.

Muah chee is softer, warmer, and more cross-culturally appealing than ding ding candy or dragon beard candy. Ding ding candy is sound-driven and draws crowds with its hammer sound. Dragon beard candy is visually mesmerising but slower to serve and sensitive to humidity. Muah chee is the most practical, inclusive, and broadly beloved of the three — fast to serve, outdoor-friendly, and universally recognised across Singapore's multicultural demographics.
Yes — muah chee is a natural fit for CNY corporate gatherings, clan functions, and Lunar New Year celebrations. Its Hokkien and Teochew heritage and warm comfort food qualities make it a particularly appropriate choice for festive events.
