About DeerSun

Asia's Favorite Candies, Delivered to Your Door

DeerSun is a small online candy shop dedicated to one simple idea: the treats we loved growing up deserve to be easy to find in North America. We specialize in authentic coconut candies, chewy ginger bonbons, and tropical ginger drinks sourced from some of Asia's most trusted makers — the kind of sweets you used to get from a relative's suitcase after a long flight home.

Why We Started DeerSun

For years, finding real Hainan coconut candy outside of specialty Asian grocery stores meant driving across town, paying marked-up prices, or settling for imitations. We started DeerSun to close that gap: to build a straightforward, honest shop where anyone — whether you grew up with these flavors or are just discovering them — can order the real thing and have it show up at the door in a few days.

What We Stock

Our shelves are built around Chun Guang, a classic brand from Hainan, China that has been making coconut candies since 1993. Chun Guang is known across Asia for its chewy original coconut candy, warming ginger coconut bonbons, roasted coconut coffee candy, and smooth instant ginger coconut drinks. We also carry gluten-free ginger chews and assorted bonbon variety bags for shoppers who want a little of everything.

Every product we stock is picked because it actually tastes good. No fillers, no placeholders, no "close enough" substitutes — just the sweet, spicy, tropical flavors we grew up loving and want to share with more people.

What We Stand For

Authentic sourcing. We work with established Asian candy makers and buy the same products you'd find in grocery stores across Hainan, Hong Kong, and Southeast Asia. No re-labeled knockoffs.

Fair pricing. We keep margins tight so imported Asian candy doesn't have to be a luxury. Free shipping on orders over $35.

Fast, careful shipping. Orders ship from the U.S. within 1–2 business days, packed to arrive in the same condition we'd want to receive them.

Real people answering email. Questions, allergy concerns, bulk orders, gift requests — a real person reads every message and writes back, usually within a day.

Who Shops With Us

Our customers include homesick students looking for a taste of home, parents introducing their kids to the candies they grew up with, foodies exploring regional Asian sweets, and anyone hunting for a unique hostess gift or stocking stuffer. Ginger coconut candy is also a surprisingly popular pick for people dealing with nausea, motion sickness, or cold-weather sniffles — the real ginger content gives it a gentle warming kick.
