It is a time where families unite from far and wide to enjoy an indulgent meal, admire the bright full moon, light ceremonial lanterns, and share sweet delicacies of the occasion: mooncake.

All our mooncakes are created from scratch and contain 3 layers: our tea-infused nama choco core, rich flavoured custard, and mochi snow skin. Everything is made fresh the day of pickup, so it’s a special chance for customers to try our fresh snowskin mooncakes.
