Signature Handcrafted Perfection
Savour the unique tropical sensation, Dragon Blossom (RM38), this year’s signature snow-skin mooncake. The vibrant blend of bright fuchsia and cobalt blue is a testament to the robust flavours of the red dragon fruit and pineapple, heightened by the contrasting texture from the buttery-crunch of macadamia nuts. This mooncake is a delicious masterpiece, one worth sharing with your closest and dearest. Well, I tried it and I love it, for me - even I am not a big fan of dragon fruit, this is a surprising delight for my taste buds! And it's not sweet! Perfect!
