How it's used
While 小甜餅 is a direct translation for small cookies or macarons, Hong Kongers often use the English loanword 餅乾 or simply refer to specific types like 馬卡龍 for macarons. Using 小甜餅 sounds slightly more descriptive or cutesy, often appearing in bakery marketing or when referring to delicate, bite-sized treats.
