Why Plushies?

Sticky rice originated from SE Asia — Lao food and Isaan/Thai food are becoming more popular and mainstream around the world.

There are many plushies of all kind representing different type of cuisines and even beverages. Yet, there are not much plushies dedicated just to SE Asian culture (especially among Lao and Thai households).

Thus, “Thip” and “Aep” were created as plushies!
