New mooncake flavours you must try in 2018!

Mid-Autumn Festival  is just around the corner. According to the Chinese Lunar calendar, this year’s Luna festival falls on September 24.

​ One of the most symbolic things to do during this time is to give away mooncakes to your parents, grandparents, clients, colleagues or even to yourself. Giving away mooncakes is a symbol of appreciation and and also an act of making your relationships with your loved ones better!

Different flavours of mooncake
These days, mooncakes have come a long way from the traditional white lotus seed and salted egg yolks. Chefs are now creating new and adventurous flavours for mooncakes. Are you looking for the perfect flavour to give out to your relatives and friends?
 Here’s a list of new mooncake fillings from the food delivery service, foodpanda, that you must definitely try this year!

• Rose tea & strawberry

 If you like the combination of strawberry and the soothing smell of rose tea, give this new mooncake flavour from S&P a try! The sweet and sour taste will definitely be loved by strawberry lovers out there.

• Monthong Durian and Macadamia

 We all know that durian is one of the biggest food trends in 2018 and we are sure that all durian lovers can’t resist this new flavour. Especially when combined with the mellow taste of macadamia. You can also enjoy it better with a good cup of coffee!

• Purple Sweet Potato

 If you are intrigued by the distinctive colour of the Japanese sweet potato, you might give this one a try. Not only does it look colourful and delicious, but sweet potato is known for being very nutritious as well. It is a rich source of fibre and minerals. Plus, there are tiny watermelon seeds nicely blended in the sweet potato filling which is healthy and gives you a more sophisticated taste, too.

• Matcha Green Tea & Red Beans

 Mooncakes and matcha. Why not? The combination of Matcha Green Tea and Red Beans as a mooncake flavour is one of the best in this list. The earthy flavour of matcha paired with the smooth and sweet texture of red bean paste is a must try!

• Mango

 For a tropical twist on this traditional treat, try mango mooncake. The sweetness and sourness of the mango gives an incredibly refreshing taste.
