Quick Answer
Importers in North America and elsewhere most often buy eight categories of Taiwanese food: bubble tea ingredients, Taiwanese tea, jams and frozen juice, canned desserts, bakery ingredients and fillings, pineapple cakes and pastries, Taiwanese snack ingredients, and drink packaging. Taiwan’s strength is range, and you can mix many products in one container, which suits Asian grocers, bubble tea shops and restaurants that need small quantities of many items.
