7 Mooncakes Under $70 To Celebrate Mid-Autumn Festival On A Budget


Affordable mooncakes for Mid-Autumn Festival 2021


Mooncakes can be quite pricey, we know. So, in an effort to help you save some money this Mid-Autumn Festival 2021, we have 7 affordable mooncake options under $70 to treat the fam without burning a hole in your wallet.


1. Ding Mooncake


Get 40% off premium mooncakes at Ding Bakery this Mid-Autumn Festival 2021, when you order before the end of August. All the mooncakes by Ding Bakery are handmade, with real, premium ingredients, no preservatives, and are low in sugar to boot.

Traditional baked mooncake fans, try the bestselling Signature White Lotus Double Yolk Mooncake (U.P $71.40), with smooth, not-too-sweet white lotus paste, countered by the savoury salted egg yolk. Each box contains four mooncakes.

If you’re willing to splurge a little, get their Durian MSW Snowskin (U.P. $139 for eight pieces), with real mao shan wang puree crafted from durians from the high mountains of Pahang, and QQ, mochi-like snowskin. If you’re not a big durian lover, get mooncakes from their Assorted Snowskin selection instead. Flavours include Pure Cacao Dark Chocolate, Culinary Grade Matcha, Earliglow Strawberry, and Passionfruit Mango. Prices are usually $139 for a box of eight, but with the 40% off, each box is only $83.40.

Order above $85 and get free delivery! Place your order on the Ding Mooncake website.


2. Kele Roll Cake

Teochew mooncake lovers should lend their support to Thye Moh Chan this Mid-Autumn Festival. The homegrown brand has over 70 years of experience making Teochew-style mooncakes, and this season, they have three new flavours in the mix. The first is the Cudweed Momoyama, which is inspired by the old school chi kak kueh, a black version of ang ku kueh made with mugwort. The other two flavours are Dan Feng Tea Momoyama, and Osmanthus Momoyama. A box of six retails for $40.80.

If you prefer the OG flaky pastry Teochew mooncakes, however, then look forward to old-school flavours such as Yam with Salted Egg Yolk ($46.80 for four), and Salty Tau Sar with Salted Egg Yolk ($40.80 for four).

Order these mooncakes from the Thye Moh Chan website.
