Putri salju (Indonesian: kue putri salju) is an Indonesian kue kering (dried kue or cookie) shaped like crescents and covered with powdered sugar. Putri salju is Indonesian for "snow princess", referring to the powdered sugar coating that resembles snow.[2]
Putri salju is a typical delicacy for festive occasions and major holidays, such as Lebaran (Eid ul-Fitr), Natal (Christmas) and Imlek (Chinese New Year).[3] Putri salju cookies are usually sold in air-tight plastic or glass jars in traditional markets, bakeries, pastry shops and supermarkets.
