Looking to impress with a different creation this year? The Prosper-licious Truffle Yu Sheng is here to stay- with its fragrant black truffle finding its way to your noses, even afar. Its konnyaku jelly (a rubbery jelly-ish japanese treat that is close to zero calories and aids in relieving constipation) is perhaps the reason why you wouldn’t be reminded of the usual salmon slices.
