Peony Jade Restaurant – Gorgeous Mooncakes

The Peony Jade restaurants have rolled out a range of gorgeous snowskin mooncakes for Mid-autumn Festival. When it comes to mooncakes, you usually focus more on the flavours rather than how the mooncakes actually look. As much as we love the uniquely-shaped mooncakes from The Fullerton, we must admit that these peony-patterned snowskins from Peony Jade are some of the prettiest around.

Snowskin salted caramel with dark crunchy chocolate pearls
S$52 for a box of 4
Rating:

New for 2011 is the chocolaty snowskin salted caramel with dark crunchy chocolate pearls, with the overall sweetness balanced by a tinge of salt. The chocolate pearls sure make this a fun treat!

Alphonso honey mango sago pomelo
S$52 for a box of 4
Rating:

The Alphonso honey mango sago pomelo turns out to be a bitter disappointment, or shall we say sour. The word “honey” is rather misleading, as the mooncake turns out to a morsel of fruity sourness, a flavour we don’t usually associate with mooncakes.

Mao Shan Wang durian in organic pandan snowskin
S$68 for a box of 4
Rating:

But when it comes to impressing, the Mao Shan Wang durian in organic pandan snowskin definitely delivers. Eating this is akin to enjoying the actual King of fruits itself – mouthful after mouthful of nothing but fresh pulpy goodness, with the light fragrance of pandan.

The mooncakes are available at Peony Jade until September 12, 2011.
