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 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.
