white java lotus glue baked mooncake
This year's Standard Mandarin Oriental mooncake choices peculiarly their novel flavours don't experience rattling exciting compared to what I convey already sampled from other hotels. For 2010, they convey introduced a baked mooncake alongside a white java lotus paste, white chocolate mooncakes alongside kokosnoot ganache as well as gula melaka, white chocolate mooncakes alongside light-green tea ganache alongside dark sesame as well as mini snowfall pare mooncake alongside corn paste. They convey retained concluding year's milk chocolate alongside peanut butter compaction as well as raspberry gist but omitted the chocolate alongside durian.

Compared to concluding year's prices, the baked mooncake as well as chocolate varieties convey maintained their prices but the mini snowskin diverseness has seen a cost increase (about RM1 to RM2). I enjoyed the baked diverseness alongside the aromatic white java lotus glue (medium sized for RM15++). I also liked the melon seeds inside giving it a overnice texture contrast alongside the smoothness of the paste.

The mini snowskin mooncake alongside corn glue (RM12++) was super tiny. This didn't fare also good alongside me every bit I felt that the corn flavor wasn't also distinct fifty-fifty though the filling was overnice as well as smooth.

Mandarin Oriental has ever been famous for their chocolate mooncakes as well as these are good made alongside a smoothen as well as non overly sweetness fillings. I enjoyed the smoothen gustation of the white chocolate alongside kokosnoot ganache as well as gula melaka (RM18++). They convey kept the kokosnoot odor a tad lower than normal but I mean value it industrial plant good since a also potent kokosnoot chemical component division would convey made it overpowering. You don't cash inwards one's chips much of the gula melaka flavours but the silky smoothen ganache does non brand yous immature lady it much.

The other variety, white chocolate alongside light-green tea ganache as well as dark sesame (RM18++) was a trivial on the sweeter side alongside a non rattling distinct light-green tea flavour. It didn't convey much of a potent flavor to it making this mooncake kinda forgettable. Quite distressing truly every bit I am certain the pairing of the sweetness white chocolate would endure perfect alongside the slightly bitter light-green tea flavour. Maybe it is best to stick to the one-time favourites from hither similar their famous mini snowfall pare mooncake alongside durian paste.
