Tasty Sweety Corp

Wow they’re opened late into the night which is awesome! Tried their mixed fruit sago in coconut juice for the first time aaaand I loved it! Fruit was a little sour but still fresh. Their tables and seats are new and red/​black-​themed, pretty cool!

Mango base the way to go.
An asian themed dessert place that is open till late night is never a bad thing!
Recently they upped their game probably because Kulu desserts opened nearby and they have nicer tables and bowls as well as ice cream!

Ever since I came back from Hong Kong and was spoiled with the delicious mango sago type of desserts and was looking for something similar here in NYC. This was one of the few places that I found that served the cold mango pomelo sago soup that I loved so much. Although it’s not much compared to the deliciousness of the ones back in HK, it will do. Each dessert here is pretty expensive; almost the same price as a meal if you think about it. They do offer you 10% off your bill if you do a facebook check in and they have the stamp card so you can eventually redeem a free treat. My personal favorite is the mixed fruit in mango soup. It’s so refreshing.

I expected this place to be fully decked out like all the other dessert places in the area, but it was a pretty basic table and chairs place, where you order at the counter and find a seat. Still, doesn’t give this place any less stars.
We have been dying to try this place for weeks and just never got a chance to go, so finally when we had the chance, we jumped at it and went. We loved our desserts. While I never had the real authentic desserts from Hong Kong, it was still good to me and definitely would come back for more. This place is strictly «soupy» dessert and they don’t have your coffee and tea and ice cream, so make sure you and your group are aware of this.
You pick your base and your toppings and you’re good to go. Prices are decent and I definitely want to come back and try the other things they have to offer. They took awhile to get us our two desserts, but hopefully it’s because they freshly cut all the fruit. Which, by the way, they use real fruit and not cans. Also, just to note, the strawberries in my dessert were sour but the boyfriend had sweet strawberries. Minor and not life changing, but just had to be mentioned.
Definitely give it a try, they have a ton of variety and customization which will satisfy everyone’s specific tastes.

I’ve only been to the dessert place in New World Mall, so my friends and I decided to give Tasty Sweety a try. Upon walking in, this place smells like straight up leaky natural gas… but then someone said it was durian. Ok, makes sense. Good thing I LOVE durian!
Kind of expensive for dessert in Flushing, but 10% off with Unilocal or Facebook check-​in. Came out to almost $ 6 for my durian sago.
My friends were all disgusted by my choice of dessert, but who cares. It was basically an almost frozen durian pudding/​smoothie with some sago (tapioca) and little tiny diced frozen durian. Probably cost them less than a dollar to make. It had good durian flavor, but was a little too sweet. This was the general consensus of all the desserts at the table.
Not sure if I would come back and pay $ 6 for this stuff, but it wasn’t terrible but it wasn’t amazing either.

Mango Sago with Aloe here is my favorite. unfortunately, they had a long period where they didnt have mangos. Thats just unacceptable.
Over priced already, and you dont want to buy the mangos because its out of season, or basically what theyre saying is that its too over priced to buy and that will decrease their profit margin.

What I ordered:
Mango Pomelo Sago Soup — not bad, but sometimes the Mango and Pomelo are soo sour. I prefer this item more at (INDESSERT) in Chinatown.
Coconut Sago Sago Base with Mango & Grass Jelly — My favorite item here! The Coconut base is deliciously slushy & refreshing. Must have mangoes. And I recently discovered my love for grass jelly, and the large cubes of it in my dessert always seems to satisfy me.
This place is located in a narrow store front surrounded by mostly Korean businesses. A few wobbly tables with plastic ikea chairs and peeling sticker décor on the walls. Don’t expect anything fancy. Warning: they serve durian here. So if you do not enjoy the smell, you might consider take-​out.

Tasty Sweety is yummy. It’s one of the popular places in flushing to get sago. The prices here are around $ 5 – 6, which is pretty decent for what you are getting. Of course it can be way less if you make it yourself… but ill pass. The menu here is abundant, and you can create your own. I recommend the coconut juice ones cause i found that more delicious than the mango juice. The Mango just was a little too sweet. Another plus about this place was the fresh fruit!
A down side of this place is the fish tank. It is right were you come in and the water is gross, and it STINKS! yuck.

Some of my friends swear by this place after every meal out in Flushing, but for me, as Unilocal would say, «Eek! Me thinks not.»
I’ve been to quite a lot of Asian dessert places and this one is pretty subpar. I think it’s more worth like 2.5 stars. The layout of this store is not the most welcoming and not as warm as the other shops but it is way more spacious and has more tables. I consider this a pretty deep walk from the busy Main Street area and into the quietness of real Koreatown. So easy to miss and you’d never guess it’s a dessert shop unless you’re looking.
Came here with two friends after a very small dinner and we thought it was just okay overall. I ordered the Strawberry Sago with Grass Jelly and even though I really like the combination, it had a strange taste to it. They used fresh strawberries, which was probably the best part but the whole thing taste like I was eating Chinese medicine oil. I’m pretty sure it came from the grass jelly but it shouldn’t taste like some herbal medicine – that’s herbal jelly. A little pricey for Flushing standards but might give this place another try since they use a lot of fresh fruits, as long as my next cup doesn’t taste like Chinese oil.

I like how this place is open till 2am so you’ll most likely find some young kids just hanging out which is nice to know they’re not on the street somewhere but just sitting and talking over some sago sago.
I think the wait is too long and I got the coconut sago sago w rainbow jelly and mango. They were too skimpy on the mangos … And towards the end of this soupy treat it just got too sweet. Sago sago are the small tapioca balls incase you didn’t know. I got the cold treat and as a result, some of all the balls were frozen but over all, it’s a comforting treat and I’ll probably be back.

After dinner, my date and I took a stroll over to Tasty Sweety for dessert. First time here and we were the only ones there since it was still early. Pretty spacy with good amount of tables and seats. I got the Papaya w/​Grass Jelly and Mango Juice and my date got the Mango w/​Grass Jelly and Mango Juice. I haven’t had something like this for a long time. It was quite delicious and inexpensive. I think that we sat there for like about 2 hours and no one really bother us. It does get pretty pack around 8:30pm-9pm.
If you are craving for dessert, definitely check out this spot.

I’ve just came here once. Although there isn’t a lot of reviews and from what they have it’s ehh. I wanted to give it a try anyways. Since one, I’ve been craving some Asian Dessert /​sweets for a week now and two, my Co workers seems to like it.
So we went, we were told right of the bat that anything that contains mango is a no go. Due to the fact that it’s colder (weather) mango brown fast, so they don’t got it. I wanted to try one of their special but it has mango.
So u decided to get mixed fruits with grass jelly. We were told that it has a coconut base. I thought that should be interesting.
So for mine it came out to $ 5. Once I got it I was super excited to try what I ordered. So the mixed fruit were diced strawberries, honeydew, cantaloupes, and I think that’s about it. At first I was like «Okay, Cool there a lot of fruits pieces «but when I spoon it through I saw that there was hardly any grass jellies. Only a few cubes. THE coconut base is not too sweet but is watery.
I was a bit disappointed. Overall, it was good tho. Not overly sweet. But too less for that I paid for. At kulu in Brooklyn I would pay $ 3 for grass jelly with sweet milk and it has a lot of grass jelly, that it was worth the Money. so much that I couldn’t finish it!
aside from, that the one person that worked there was helpful. He answered all our questions when asked and would explain things to us.
I got a stamp card, so Yeah I’ll come back. Only once in awhile tho. It’s a bit pricey.

Play tumbling tower (jenga) while u wait for the dessert :) you can ask them for it!
I keep coming back for their desserts, I’d recommend the Durian Sago Soup (if you like durian) they cut them into frozen cubes and put them with sago (clear chewy bubbles — like clear mini tapioca). Mango Pomelo Sago Soup is another one of my favorites. Strawberry or Mixed Fruit Sago Soup are also pretty good. Their desserts aren’t that sweet, it’s just about right and light, good to have before or after a meal!

Sigh.
If this is authentic Hong Kong Style desserts, then I don’t know Hong Kong style desserts. The fact that I was in Hong Kong a few weeks ago would then have no weight whatsoever…
But the fact of the matter is, if this is an attempt at Hong Kong Style desserts, it’s a poor one. There’s only one thing that’s relatively acceptable: the mango pudding.
Everything else… was «sugar water.»

I am so glad a friend told me about this place. There are few Hong Kong styled dessert places in Queens so it is awesome that there is another one in Flushing now.
Simple and humble, Tasty Sweety provides many delicious fruit and sago soups in Styrofoam cups. The couple I tried were sweet and fresh. As always anything with mango The shop is a little dinky and since the counter is all the way in the back, it comes with an awkward walk past the customers slurping their soups.
Overall, a great hang out place and it caters to people like me who love those sagos and mangos.

Once you walk in, the counter is all the way in the back through the narrow awkward hallway. The decorations on the walls are peeling and the place is so crammed.
I’ve been here a couple of times and always ordered the mango pomelo sago soup (without the grapefruit). It’s pretty good but a bit pricey ($ 6) .
All the workers seem like they don’t even want to be there at all. The girl that served me, spoke to me with an attitude. After I ordered with my friend, I saw the 10% Facebook check in, so I asked about it and she said «let me see your phone» in a really rude manner. AND after she saw it, she didn’t even put the discount in for me.
Bad customer service.
Update October 2013
Customer service is better now. I still come every so often to get my favorite mango pomelo sago soup :)

I really enjoy cold desserts and I have been looking forward to trying this place for awhile. Came here on a Sunday and didn’t know what to expect. The location is not ideal since its a bit of a walk. Its on union street near northern boulevard and it took me several minutes to find this place. Its small and I walked by it twice.
Upon entering the décor was not very inviting. The layout is long like a very narrow hallway and they painted it a dark red and black with cheap plastic wall accents that were peeling. Not sure why anyone would paint their place such a dark gloomy color when they have no natural sunlight is beyond me. Also the dim lighting made it especially hard to see. This place has a totally stagnant feel to it. Only a few small tables to sit at. A dark corner by the counter or an even darker corner bereft of any sunlight. They need to brighten this place up.
You pretty much order at the cashier and there is no real menu posted. They have a good selection of traditional asian desserts of hot and cold dessert soups and smoothie style drinks. But you have to read off a paper takeout menu. Everything is pretty overpriced here and the portions are not very big. Think $ 5-​$ 6 a dessert. I wanted to customize mine so I got a mango based cold soup with papaya. Supposedly there are three steps like a make your own burger place-​you pick a base with a set price then you add fruit which is an additional amount and then you can add extra topping like sago or bubbles for an extra amount. They have set desserts and drinks but more expensive.
I pretty much just wanted the soup with fruit but was informed that I had to complete step 3. the cashier even asked the manager and he said that yes i had to complete the third step which made no sense to me since there was absolutely nothing in the third category that I wanted. The manager said i would have to complete the third step or he wouldn’t want to bother making it for me!!! kind of rude if you put it that way. i guess he doesn’t like business and would rather not take my money than to get off his butt and make something for me. wow. I pretty much dislike sago and bubbles as I don’t like the texture or sugary flavor or chewing them plus its an additional cost. What if I was allergic? Why must I be forced to get something I don’t need or want and have to pay for it? What is the point of customization then? I stood there for awhile trying to figure out what I wanted. The staff offered no suggestions or recommendations or alternatives. In the end I gave in and got the passion fruit popping bubbles and inquired about the facebook check in discount. They rang me up and didnt even give me the discount but at this point I just wanted to leave.
The people who run this place are like the people who probably did not get that second interview to work at Kung Fu tea and decided to open up their own business instead. The staff is purely male, guys wearing trucker hats who I think are better suited at selling sneakers and t-​shirts than desserts. No idea why this place is called tasty sweety. There is not a sweety in sight. They could do well with some sort of feminine touch or some cheerful female staff (a smile would do wonders for your business) or at least learn the first rule of running a business which is The Customer Is Always Right!
The dessert soup was good but maybe because this was my sole lunch and I did not eat anything the whole day. It was chilled nicely and it tasted fresh and the mango soup was not too thick or thin but consistent in flavor. I liked the cubed papaya but the passion fruit popping bubbles were just a minor annoyance giving me a mini heart attack each time I bit into one. Didn’t really taste any passion fruit there and I kept thinking I was eating fish roe or those fish oil gel capsules. Im telling you how much I dislike those things. The size was small like miniscule. Like the size of a small bubbletea didn’t feel worth it. Maybe the portions are bigger if you eat there but you pretty much have to sit in darkness.
I may come back here if I am on this side of Flushing and want some kind of dessert since they are open late and obviously never that crowded but I really hope they work on their customer service skills since they are definitely lacking in that department. But since they don’t have that much competition in the desserts business now that Sweet n Tart café is long gone, Manji Desserts in the New World Mall is the only other choice in the area.
2.5 stars exclusively for the desserts minus stars for customer service, ambience, location and price.

Tucked between Korean eateries, this place can be difficult to find, but once you discover something this good, you have a tendency to either keep it a secret or let all your friends know, I choose the latter!
The name of the shop is fitting, It is «tasty and sweety» The flavor combinations offered here are fantastic! «Mango sago with grass jelly» Awesome! «Durian sago soup» That’s right people! Durian! Exotic and stinky fruit to some made into a delicious cold dessert
There is so many different combinations to choose from, watermelon, papaya, mango, peach, Lychee, Durian, strawberry and the list goes on!
The seating area is limited and there is free Wi-​Fi in the place. If you have a face book account, check in and get 10% off your purchase.
Parking on Union Street is great, if you can find a spot. Otherwise, head over to the big municipal lot. If you have never eaten this type of Hong Kong style dessert before, this place would be a great introduction to this type of dessert.

Got my dessert fix last night! Finally, a Hong Kong style dessert place opened near me.
My family and I tried the following:
(Hot) Durian Sago Soup — delcious chunks of durian!
(Hot) Black Seseme Paste w/​Mochi — strong black seseme taste w/​delicious mochi but not enough mochi
(Hot) Almond Paste w/​Mochi — strong almond taste w/​delicious mochi but not enough mochi
(Cold) Papaya Sago (mango/​coconut juice) — not enough papaya, kind of bland and too watery.
(Cold) Taro Sago (mango/​coconut juice) — not enough taro, kind of bland and watered down.
Overall, the desserts are not bad. I suggest getting the HOT desserts over the COLD ones though. My cousin really wanted to try the Muo Muo Cha Cha but it was sold out. Bummer! Well, we’ll be back!
Notes: No tips required. Check into Facebook for 10% discount. Get a stamp card and build up for a freebie!

Heard about this place from a friend who knows the owner. I was excited to hear a new dessert place opened up in Flushing. I thought it was going to be similar to Yat Yat Sweet in Brooklyn, but it’s just not up to par.
I ordered the aloe sago and the mango sago. The aloe tastes like it was rotten. All the sago items have an option of either coconut of mango juice, I opted for the coconut.
The menu is a bit confusing though. There’s a section for sago sago and a section for just sago. I’m not too sure what the difference is so I asked the employee, but they didn’t really explain it very well, so I still don’t really know what the difference is.
