MAMA Chicken Cup Noodles is produced by Thai President Foods PCL, a leading food company based in Bangkok, Thailand. It is a Product of Thailand — an instant cup noodle that has been loved across Asia for decades. Each cup contains wheat noodles and a chicken-flavoured soup powder; simply add boiling water and a warm noodle soup is ready in just 3 minutes. Available in Europe through dotAsia, your specialist Asian food online store.

Preparation is very simple. Partially open the lid, add the enclosed soup powder onto the noodles, pour boiling water up to the fill line, close the lid, and wait 3 minutes. No microwave or hob required — perfect for the office, student accommodation, or travelling. For a more satisfying meal, try adding a soft-boiled egg, spring onions, or fresh vegetables.

This product contains allergens that must be declared under EU Regulation 1169/2011. Specifically, it contains gluten (wheat) and soybeans. The manufacturing facility also handles eggs, milk, fish (anchovy), crustaceans (shrimp), sesame, and molluscs (oyster), so cross-contamination (may contain) is possible. Anyone with an allergy to the above ingredients should avoid this product. Always check the ingredient label on the actual packaging before purchase.

No, this product is not suitable for vegans or vegetarians. The soup powder contains animal-derived ingredients including artificial chicken flavouring, making it unsuitable for both vegetarians and vegans. We recommend exploring plant-based alternatives if you follow a vegan or vegetarian diet.

MAMA Chicken Cup Noodles features a savoury, umami-rich chicken broth flavour. A small amount of chilli powder gives a mild lingering warmth, but overall it is not particularly spicy — making it very approachable for European consumers trying Asian instant noodles for the first time. If you were to compare it to European food, think of a rich chicken noodle soup with a hint of Asian spice. Flavour enhancers (E621, E635) contribute to its deep, satisfying taste.
