The Lunar 15th day of the 8th month comes close ......... it's time for Mooncakes (Part 2)


THE PENINSULA CONNOISSUER MOON CAKES

The Peninsula comes to Singapore to sell
their brand of moon cakes too! In the box
are 8 pieces of mini custard mooncakes 迷你奶黄月.
I got one box at S$35 at Vivo City.

Cutting open the mooncake revealed the orangy filling that
is a mixture of custard and salted egg yolk.

FOUR SEASONS HOTEL JIANG NAN CHUN MOON CAKES

HY and I got 2 boxes of four (S$45/box) for my parents and hers.
Jiang Nan Chun had their moon cake box in red
with that little metallic handle to finish off the Chinese touches.


Inside the box were four individual square boxes
that also came with the little Chinese handles.

The Yin and the Yang shows itself with that
salted egg yolk right in the middle.
