New mooncake flavours never fail to appear every year. They become the topic on everyone's lips when they are revealed in the market.
Marina Mandarin hotel's new flavours are exciting and innovative. The filling of red-wine cranberry paste brings an intoxicating and exotic taste to something originally Chinese.
Another unusual filling is kumquat. It is a Chinese fruit but using it in mooncakes is a first. It will be interesting to eat a mooncake with orange filling.
In terms of the skin, peppermint snowskin is a unique outer layer. It will certainly complement the red bean paste filling in it, somewhat like an Yinyang combination.
Cova Pasticceria - Confetteria's mooncakes have a sponge layer inside. Its accompanying picture makes the mooncakes more tempting to eat. It has brought the normal definition of mooncakes into a new dimension. Its mooncake flavours are unusual as well. There are rose and vanilla sponge, and peanut and chocolate sponge!
Centre Ps's mooncake fillings are also a first: yuzu and cream cheese, and Oreo biscuit. I wonder what they will taste like!
There are also more fillings like lavender, wheatgrass and melon seeds, and hazelnut with nata de coco from Wah Lok, Carlton Hotel Singapore, and cranberry and raspberry, and peanut caramel from Hilton Singapore.
They get more exciting through the years!
