Chocolate Works 2021 (Part 8): Exploring the History and Traditions of Mooncake Festival

Behind every design is a story.

The 8 flavours are in pairs of milk chocolate on the left, and dark chocolate with one white chocolate on the right.

They are placed separated in different boxes, as with the legend of the couple Chang'e and Hou Yi , separated by one being on the moon and the other on earth. My favourite is the Jade Rabbit story, about a cute rabbit jumping into fire to turn himself into food. Both are stories of self-sacrifice.

There are four designs. Each design further separated into two, with two different chocolate types.

The pair on the left is the floral pair. Sunflowers and Roses. A special thing with the Roses is it contains Jasmine infused White Ganache. The only ganache self made in this collection with white chocolate.

On the right is the Leaf pair. Peppermint and Green Tea.

The Baba Nyonya fillings pair on the left with intricate flowers and chilli flakes design.

The Undecorated pair on the right. The Cheese Milk Chocolate and Durian Dark Chocolate.

Have a great Mid-Autumn celebration 2021. Thank you everyone for your purchases and being adventurous in trying these unconventional pairing of chocolates and mooncake fillings.
