This season, InterContinental Singapore’s award-winning signature restaurant Man Fu Yuan unveils a divine collection of handcrafted mooncakes created by Dim Sum Chef Simon Poon and his team. A new range of low sugar white lotus seed paste mooncakes, made with 50 percent less sugar and with all-natural ingredients, complement our traditional baked mooncake collection this year. With a choice of classic salted egg yolk or premium macadamia nuts, the new additions provide a guilt-free indulgence this Mid-Autumn season.

Man Fu Yuan’s perennial favourite baked mooncake collection comes with a variety of fillings to suit different palates, such as Assorted Nuts, White Lotus Seed Paste with Macadamia Nuts, and Red Bean Paste with Melon Seeds.

The ‘Pulot Hitam’ mooncake, inspired by the well-loved Peranakan dessert is their much anticipated new creation. Filled with a creamy centre of black glutinous rice pudding infused with gula melaka, the familiar flavours provide a nostalgic treat with an interesting textural contrast to the delicate snowskin wrap. It’s available as part of the sensational 4-piece collection of Snowskin Mooncake Combination, with other unique snowskin favourites including the aromatic Green Tea Paste with Dragonball Jasmine tea infused snowskin, smooth White Lotus with Macadamia Nuts and rich Sesame Paste with White Sesame Seeds.

Man Fu Yuan mooncakes are available for online purchase at www.facebook.com/ICSingapore; The Teahut, located at the entrance of InterContinental Singapore from Bugis Junction, and selected locations across Singapore, with boxes of 2-piece from $29.80+ and 4-piece from $48.80+.

For the traditionalists at heart, the White Lotus Seed Paste with Single or Double Yolk as well as White Lotus Seed Paste with Macadamia Nuts (Low Sugar) remain hot favorites. Baked to a beautiful deep golden brown, these traditional mooncakes thrill the palate with a dreamily smooth texture and sweet white lotus paste that oozes wholesome goodness.

Back by popular demand to tease and tempt your palates are the fruity flavors of Lychee & Lychee in Snowskin and devilishly decadent Baileys Truffle & Mint in Snowskin. The Black Sesame & White Lotus Paste with Mochi in Snowskin is sprinkled with gold dust and enrobed in a black sesame infused white lotus paste with a specially imported chewy mochi in the centre. Looking pretty in pink, the Sakura Truffle with White Lotus Paste in Snowskin is infused with the aromatic flavors of Sakura.

Prices for baked and snowskin mooncakes start from $50+ for 4 pieces and 8 pieces respectively.

Going against the current trend of weird flavor pairings for the sake of being different, the Chefs at Grand Mercure Roxy have focused on wonderful fresh ingredients that work together to design the perfect dessert at a great price. The range of contemporary flavors including dark ganache with rum; black sesame with winter melon tea; white lotus seeds with macadamia nuts; and raspberry with dark chocolate.

Available at Jia Wei Chinese Restaurant and Jia Wei Express, these delicious treats are perfect for gifting and sharing with your loved ones. Prices range from $48 to $60.
