During this Mid-Autumn festival, the full moon’s splendor can be enjoyed at Marina Bay Sands, where a captivating assortment of classic and contemporary mooncakes awaits. These mooncakes at Marina Bay Sands evoke centuries-old traditions and decades of festive joy. They come in four baked and four snowskin varieties, each representing a touch of rarity and sophistication.
The renowned contemporary Chinese restaurant, Mott 32, is joining in the celebration for the first time this year, presenting four extraordinary flavors inspired by their signature dishes, adding an enchanting twist to the festivities.
The meticulously crafted traditional baked mooncakes and delicate snowskin gems by Marina Bay Sands are designed to impress family, friends, and business partners alike. These mooncakes are the creation of Executive Pastry Chef Hoi Kuok I, who follows age-old techniques. They are adorned with flowers symbolizing prosperity and happiness, fitting perfectly with the Mid-Autumn festival spirit. Premium ingredients from around the world enhance their flavors.
The snowskin selection promises four delectable treats that cater to both Eastern and Western palates. Among them, the Golden Nest features a bright orange exterior, concealing Chef Kuok I’s secret recipe of refreshing citrus kumquat custard cream combined with crunchy bird’s nest.
Another mooncake celebrating Asian flavors is the Matcha Blossom, boasting a smooth blend of aromatic uji matcha and sugar-free silken mung bean paste, studded with traditional Japanese confectionery amanattō (azuki beans).
For those craving a multi-textured delight, there’s the pink-hued Strawberry Fields, enriched with premium wild French strawberries from Provence. These strawberries are cooked down into compote and blended with the same sugar-free mung bean paste, along with yogurt and granola bits.
Completing this exquisite line-up is Ebony, a decadent mooncake with a rich 70 percent dark chocolate truffle core infused with Glenfiddich 21-Year-Old Gran Reserva Single Malt Scotch Whisky. It’s elegantly encased in a purple casing of apricot and chocolate snow skin.
If you have a taste for both savory and sweet, you’ll be pleased with Marina Bay Sands’ baked mooncakes. In addition to the classic Reduced Sugar White Lotus Paste with Single Yolk, which follows traditional Cantonese-style baking techniques, there’s an array of gourmet flavors with Asian origins.
One of the unique offerings is the Jinhua Ham & Mixed Nuts with Macallan Whisky, infused with the rich wood spice of the Macallan Sherry Oak 12 Years Old. It’s a boozy twist on the traditional Wu Ren (五仁), incorporating five nutritious nuts and seeds like walnuts, almonds, cashews, olive kernels, and melon seeds, complemented by dried tangerines and winter melon.
For a floral and fragrant experience, try the Dried Longan Jasmine Tea, a velvety smooth tea treat complemented with fragrant mung bean paste and loaded with chewy dried longan flesh. Sweeten your celebrations with Gula Melaka Yam Mochi, featuring Taiwanese yam blended with gula melaka and a chewy, stretchy white mochi center.
