Mid-Autumn Festival is coming soon, which means Singapore will have a bit of a mooncake craze in the coming month. If you’re grappling with the multitude of mooncake options available and are a bit lost for choice, let us direct you to the mooncakes from Singapore Marriott Tang Plaza Hotel, because they’ve got options for every type of mooncake preference and personality.
This year, the hotel’s acclaimed Wan Hao Chinese Restaurant has created five new baked and snowskin mooncake flavours that will definitely impress your loved ones, or those who receive them as a gift.
The Cognac Truffle Snowskin Mooncake ($82 for eight pieces) is a standout option for booze lovers. These come with a soft snowskin exterior, and a creamy coffee filling, complete with a silken cognac chocolate truffle in the middle.Â
The cognac and tiramisu pairing makes for a luscious, bittersweet match, with just the slightest hint of alcohol giving each mouthful a bit of a bite.
Gourmands can look forward to getting their hands on the Golden Black Truffle Baked Mooncakes with Jamon Iberico Ham & Single Yolk ($88 for four pieces). For starters, these baked mooncakes feature a black-and-gold pastry that really catches the eye.Â
Slice them open, and you’ll reveal an indulgent filling of black truffle-infused lotus paste studded with bits of Jamon Iberico ham, complemented by a single salted egg yolk. These mooncakes are very savoury—great as a gift for those who always have a gripe that regular baked mooncakes are too sweet.
If you know someone who is a tad health-conscious but still wants to get in on the Mid-Autumn Festival fun, go for the Imperial “Long Jing” Tea with Pumpkin Seeds Baked Mooncakes ($82 for four pieces). This baked mooncake’s filling is perfumed with premium Long Jing Tea, and packed with pumpkin seeds for crunch. It’s also a great mooncake to purchase for the traditionalists in your life!
The Tropical Soursop Vanilla Snowskin Mooncakes ($80 for eight pieces) and Peach Passionfruit Truffle Blueberry Snowskin Mooncakes ($80 for eight pieces) are great picks if you’re looking for kid-friendly mooncake options, or just flavours to intrigue.Â
The former is made with a pure soursop fruit filling, so it’s ultra-refreshing.
The latter is packed with sweet, mellow, and tangy notes—a must-try for fruit-lovers.
