Mid-Autumn Festival 2024 is coming up soon, and you know what that means? It’s mooncake season everyone! These seasonal treats are once again on the agenda, and we’re as excited as anyone to savour them with each bite.
This year brings again lots of choices — where would you even start? Well, we’ve specially curated a list of mooncakes for your viewing pleasure, filled with both traditional and the unique. Read on to see which to add to your shopping list!
The Capitol Kempinski
Timeless Heritage—that’s the theme for The Capitol Kempinski Mid-Autumn 2024 mooncake collection, and it is befitting for such a long-celebrated season. The hotel blends timeless elegance with a modern touch in this collection, featuring a blend of traditional and contemporary flavours to cater to every palette.
Starting with their classics, they have four meticulously crafted classic baked mooncake flavours to choose from. The signature White Lotus Seed Paste with Egg Yolk Mini Baked Mooncakes returns, along with Red Bean Osmanthus with Mixed Nuts Mini Baked Mooncakes, Black Sesame Paste with Egg Yolk Mini Baked Mooncakes, and Lava Custard Mini Baked Mooncakes — the latter hiding a molten lava custard centre underneath the flaky crust.
Their snowskin collection also comes as a quartet. Enjoy returning favourites like the Champagne Truffle Mini Snowskin Mooncakes and Mao Shan Wang Durian Mini Snowskin Mooncakes, which promise decadence to truffle and durian lovers alike. But there are two new flavours to explore as well. The Yuzu Osmanthus Mini Snowskin Mooncakes blend tangy citrus with mildly sweet osmanthus blossoms, while the Mocha Baileys Mini Snowskin Mooncakes see mocha Baileys truffle encased in soft, slightly chewy snowskin.

Crowne Plaza Changi Airport
With Crowne Plaza located right at Changi Airport, it is only natural that the hotel’s 2024 mooncake collection is inspired by travel — the mooncakes even come in luggage-inspired gift boxes to capture the spirit of adventure and exploration.
For their traditional baked mooncakes, Crowne Plaza Changi Airport has four delectable options to choose from. Both the White Lotus Paste with Single Yolk and White Lotus Paste with Double Yolk are regulars in the mooncake scene. Still, you can also find healthier flavour options like the Low Sugar White Lotus Paste with Macadamia Nuts and Mixed Nuts.
Crowne Plaza Changi Airport, meanwhile, truly encapsulates the theme of travel with its four flavours. The Pistachio with Hazelnut Truffle tips its hat to Italy, Cinnamon Apple Strudel with Cream Cheese and Apple Truffle is inspired by Austria’s culinary heritage, Crème Brûlée with Vanilla Truffle, of course, celebrates France’s beloved dessert, and Matcha with Sakura Truffle is an apt tribute to a Japanese staple.

InterContinental Singapore
InterContinental Singapore’s Man Fu Yuan restaurant is inspired by the vibrant hues and exquisite flavours of tropical fruits in its 2024 mooncake collection. Called Blossom and Botany, these snowskin varieties promise an eclectic experience for customers looking for something contemporary in their mooncakes.
Crafted beautifully into the shape of a flower, each snowskin mooncake comes delicately paired with a chocolate truffle centre. Starting with the Golden Peach and Pumpkin Seed with Lychee Chocolate Truffle mooncakes, get a subtle sweetness from the combination of the golden peach and lychee chocolate truffle. Meanwhile, the Mangosteen and Flax Seeds with Pomegranate Chocolate Truffle mooncakes offer creamy sweetness from the mangosteen paired with tanginess from the pomegranate truffle centre.
The Jackfruit and Quinoa with Lime Chocolate Truffle mooncakes provide a unique profile for those with an adventurous palette, and finally, the Coconut and Black Sesame Seeds with Passionfruit Chocolate Truffle mooncakes contrast the tangy aromatic notes from the passionfruit chocolate truffle with the smoothness of the coconut. And for something truly exclusive, the hotel brings back its InterContinental Negroni Lychee Chocolate Truffle Mini Snow Skin mooncake, this time in a new mini bite-sized aesthetic.
Don’t worry if you prefer something traditional because they have traditional baked mooncake varieties as well, and luckily for the health-conscious, all of them are made with lower sugar. The flavours include White Lotus Seed Paste and Red Lotus Seed Paste, both of which have Single or Double Yolk options. Man Fu Yuan also presents a Low Sugar White Lotus Seed Paste with Macadamia Nuts and Pumpkin Seed, as well as Assorted Nuts with Plant-based Ham flavours for those who love nutty combinations.

Now available for pre-order, the collection features three types of all-time favourites: Signature Chocolate, Low-sugar Baked, and Snowskin. All of these reimagine traditional mooncakes!
As a brand renowned for its chocolates, it’s unquestionable that the Janice Wong Signature Chocolate Mooncakes make its comeback in 2024! This year sees the return of favourites, including Peanut Gingerflower, Salted Caramel Cashew, Vanilla Biscoff, and the alcoholic flavour Gula Lapis Whisky Old Fashioned. These mooncakes are quite literally hand-painted masterpieces that come in an array of colours, complete with Janice Wong’s signature strokes.
In the Low-sugar Baked collection, you have four varieties of low-sugar Baked Mooncakes, the colour of which is hinted by their crusts. The Kuromitsu Sea Salt mooncake balances black sugar with its saltiness, while the Kinako Macadamia flavour makes for a warm and nutty bite. In a red shade, we have the Raspberry Almond, which comes with Azuki paste, while the Pistachio flavour, obviously in green, contains pistachio bean paste.
Finally, we have the quintessential Snowskin mooncakes, which are crafted with fresh ingredients flown directly from Japan! Each piece contains a surprise truffle ball, with the flavours ranging from Sweet Potato Cashew and Hojicha Chestnut Coffee to Hinako Macadamia and Matcha Yuzu.

Coming in a set of four, this year’s collection features two new flavours you don’t want to miss!

Feng Shui Inn
Sometimes, embracing heritage over modernity has its benefits, which is why Feng Shui Inn at Resorts World Sentosa has created a collection of mooncakes titled Tapestry of Treasures! What makes Feng Shui Inn unlike the others is that its mooncakes are made with ancient grains.
Modern grains are often stripped down and then “enriched” with minerals and vitamins due to nutrients lost from refining and manufacturing. However, ancient grains contain plenty of nutrients, minerals, and fibre as they are only processed traditionally through a stone mill!
Therefore, these ancient grains make mooncakes healthier. They also have anti-inflammatory properties and a lower glycemic index, meaning fewer sugar spikes and combating auto-immune diseases.
Feng Shui Inn’s mooncake collection boasts four baked mooncakes made with ancient grain flour. These include the White Lotus Mooncake with Double Yolk and Sunflower Seeds, a classic flavour filled with nutty and crunchy sunflower seeds to complement the floral notes of white lotus.
Another unconventional flavour is the Mala Mixed Nuts Mooncake with Bak Kwa, which is bursting with a variety of flavours. For something a little more traditional, we have the Hong Kong Style Red Bean Paste Mooncake with Century Egg, which is inspired by traditional Hong Kong century egg pastries. This particular flavour’s unique and original recipe was crafted by the chefs at Feng Shui Inn themselves!
Last but not least, we have the Jujube Mooncake with Pine Nuts, which uses jujubes blended into a smooth and sweet paste before being studded with pine nuts and encased in buttery mooncake pastry.
Resorts World Sentosa also has a separate collection of durian snow skin mooncakes not made with ancient grain flour. These special Mao Shan Wang Snow Skin mooncakes are made with high-quality Mao Shan Wang purée, making this modern classic a rich, creamy, and bitter-sweet treat perfect for durian lovers!
