In the heart of Southern Vietnam, where tropical fruits ripen under the golden sun, a humble yet delightful snack has become a favorite among locals and travelers alike – the Fruit Roll by Tư Bông. More than just a sweet treat, it’s a story wrapped in tradition, innovation, and the warmth of handmade care.
What Is a Fruit Roll?
A fruit roll is a handcrafted snack made from ripe tropical fruits like banana, mango, soursop, pineapple, and tamarind. These fruits are cooked into a thick, sticky jam and carefully wrapped in a traditional glutinous rice paper (locally called bánh phồng nếp). The result? A naturally sweet, chewy roll with just the right crunch – no artificial colors, no preservatives, and no nonsense.
Unlike mass-produced candy, Tư Bông’s fruit roll is low in sugar, rich in natural flavor, and made entirely by hand – from fruit selection to packaging.
The Art of Making a Tư Bông Fruit Roll
Each fruit roll begins with ripe fruit sourced from the Mekong Delta, one of the most fertile regions in Vietnam. Here’s how it’s made:
- Fruit preparation: Selected fruits are washed, peeled, and pitted. They are then cooked slowly under low heat in a vacuum cooker to preserve flavor, nutrients, and color.
- Rice paper baking: Glutinous rice crackers are toasted over open flame and softened with dew to become pliable enough to wrap.
- Filling and rolling: The fruit paste is spread evenly over the rice cracker, sometimes topped with peanuts or sesame seeds, then rolled and cut into bite-sized pieces.
- Packaging: Each piece is individually packed to maintain freshness and hygiene, ready for gifting or snacking on the go.
