Tastefully presented in a stylish gold-amber acrylic case and stamped with Grand Hyatt Singapore’s distinctive Chinese insignia, this year’s collection of mooncakes includes two refreshing new miniature snowskin mooncake flavours perfected by Hyatt’s pastry artisans: white lotus with rose truffle plus white lotus with passion fruit truffle.  You can also create the perfect gift for family, friends or business associates by choosing from four traditional and nine snowskin mooncake flavours.

 Be a  “Moonie”! Eat Mooncakes! 🙂

Each piece is handmade by Hyatt’s dedicated team of fourteen expert pastry chefs to maintain the quality and freshness of both the traditional and the snowskin mooncakes. The other hotel that makes their Mooncakes by hand is the Singapore Marriott.  All mooncakes are 100% preservative-free, and do not contain pork or lard. Did you know that years ago, all traditional mooncakes were made with pork lard! This is no longer acceptable to consumers in the 21st Century.

New Flavours

White Lotus with Rose Truffle Snowskin Mooncake (contains alcohol)

Encased in this rosy hued snowskin mooncake is a delicate white lotus seed paste that envelopes an Ispahan rose truffle; infused with raspberries, raspberry liquor and the alluring scent of the Damansk rose.  Other popular snowskin creations that incorporate alcohol include the ever popular lychee martini truffle inspired by the Martini Bar, and the elegant green tea with sake truffle.

 The Rose Truffle has an exquisite scarlet red colour but I would have liked a more intense perfume of Rose. It is very yummie nonetheless! I adore this matched with Rooibos Vanilla Tea with Lavender Honey from Avignon.

Wenn Sie aufgeben zu trinken, rauchen und lieben, leben Sie bestimmt nicht laenger, erschienet nur laenger… 🙂

White Lotus Passion Fruit Truffle Snowskin (contains Grand Marnier Orange liquer)

In a cheery shade of orange, this new flavour presents itself as a refreshing twist with a zangy passion fruit ganache infused with Grand Marnier liquor within the white chocolate truffle. The Passion Fruit ganache has just the right touch of sour-sweetness and is a perfect complement to the Lotus Seed paste that is not overly sweet! I like this one a lot! Heavenly with a glass or two of 2008 Donnfugata Ben Rye Sicilian wine…

Indulge too in other snowskin varieties like caramel sea salt truffle and the avant-garde gold-dusted black sesame yuzu truffle.

For those who prefer traditional baked Mooncakes…

Baked to a luscious golden shade of brown, enjoy classic flavours of traditional mooncakes such as red lotus single yolk with roasted melon seed, white lotus double yolk with roasted melon seed, white lotus with roasted melon seed, and sesame lotus single yolk with bamboo ash.
