Raffles Hotel launches online mooncakes sale

This is in celebration of the celestial Mid-Autumn tradition of mooncake crafting.

Raffles Hotel described the newly introduced Snow-Skin Banana Passion Mooncake as a summery creation which features the goodness of the banana and passion fruit encompassed in the smooth chocolate truffle. It is wrapped in Raffles Hotel’s signature white lotus paste and tender snow-skin.

The Snow-Skin Mooncake with Champagne Truffle & Ganache meanwhile is an original Raffles Hotel creation which highlights the ivory-coloured treat, featuring a handcrafted Champagne truffle swathed in creamy white lotus paste and enfolded in a duvet of tender snow-skin.

Other prospective gifts this Mid-Autumn season are the Baked Mooncake with Pine Nuts, Macadamia Nuts & White Lotus Paste, Baked Mother of Pearl with Single Yolk & White Lotus Paste, and Baked Mooncake with Double Yolk, Macadamia Nuts & White Lotus Paste.

Raffles Hotel’s selection of mooncakes was made available for sale online from 1 June 2012 at www.raffleshotelmooncakes.com.
