MoonCake Hunting

Mooncake festival is coming around the corner, But i am grounded from entering malaysia to do my hunting. 

Anyways i thought, we have been eating the same old “lavender” brand for a couple of years. Maybe we should try something different. After doing some research from Flowerpod & Hardwarezone, i found that Peony Jade’s Yam Moon Cake & Raffles hotel’s Snow Skin moon cakes are the more popular ones. 

Dearie & i went to chevrons house / hitachi tower (Raffles place) to do our hunting. Change Alley has a promotion going on, with purchase of $100 (max 2 receipts combined) you will get a sure win lucky dip. Citibank CC holders get 2 chances to dip. hehe ( I won a Laptop bag & $50 peach garden voucher )

Apart from that, most of the moon cakes booth have discounts when you pay via CC. I spent & saved quite alot on mooncakes.

Here are my hunting trophies… hehe

Raffles Hotel Moon Cakes!. Specially for dearie. :)

Dearie’s reaction is very funny, her 1st comment on the moon cake was; WOAH!!!! HEN XIANG HOR!?!?!??!. Next, she become excited looking high & low ( looking for toothpicks to try out sample i guess ). I fed her, her immediate respond was; WOAH!!!! HAO CHI HOR!?!?!?!. I bought 1 box of 8 for her to indulge herself. hehe.

Are you curious???.

Tadaaa… These are the best Snow Skin moon cakes i have ever ate for my past 24 years on this earth. Super yummy, the moon cake simply melt in your mouth & all you have to do is… suck the moon cake like a candy. Woahhhhhh… Expensive moon cake, but it is worth the $.

My total damage for my moon cake hunt?.

$180 ++ for 4 boxes of moon cakes. :)
