A nod to tradition

Classic flavours and all-natural ingredients are the highlights of Crystal Jade’s range of baked mooncakes.

Crystal Jade Group pays homage to the time-honoured Midautumn Festival with the release of their classic mooncake collection. The brand’s proprietary recipe of low-sugar natural white lotus paste is housed inside thin, golden-brown pastry skin to form bites of pleasure. Get your hands on the White Lotus Paste with Single ($62 per box of 4 pcs) or Double Yolk ($68 per box of 4 pcs), or enjoy a textural contrast in the White Lotus Paste with Melon Seeds ($58 per box of 4 pcs).

Making a return is one of Crystal Jade’s best selling mooncakes: Classic Assorted Nuts and Chicken Ham. The sweet lotus paste is dotted with walnuts, almonds and sesame seeds, and balanced with the smoky, savoury aroma of chicken ham. Can’t decide? Go for the Happiness Four set ($68), which comes with one mooncake of each flavour.

For something extra special, order the Eight Mini Treasures ($68). It features two brand new flavours in bite-sized portions. The Oolong Pu’er features robust oolong tea and the earthly fragrance of pu’er, while the Black Sesame & Lotus reveals a toasty and nutty paste, thanks to the black sesame seeds in the mix.

All Crystal Jade’s mooncakes come in a palatial-style box that is reminiscent of traditional food carriers during the imperial era. Each two-tiered gift box is decked in elegant teal and adorned with a symbolic gingko tree motif.
