Mid-Autumn festival will fall on 10 September this year and we’re glad that mooncake-gifting is probably going to be back in swing with the economy opening up.
If you’re currently shopping for the best mooncakes in 2022 to gift to your loved ones or business associates, you’re on the right page. AVENUE ONE has curated a list of our favourite selections. These don’t just boast exceptional flavours but are also presented in exquisite packaging that’s made to impress.
Grand Hyatt Singapore
If you’re looking for a sophisticated gift option for business associates or loved ones with discerning taste buds, Grand Hyatt Singapore’s mooncake collection comes highly recommended.
The most popular flavours are probably the three indulgent alcoholic ones, presented as snowskin mooncakes, which have returned to the menu by popular demand.
These flavours include Champagne, Lychee Martini, and Strawberry Tequila. The first two options are perennial favourites that are crowd-pleasers, while the latter is great for those who are looking for something sweeter and fruitier.
Apart from these alcoholic flavours, those who love snowskin mooncakes can also choose from flavours including the Black Sesame and Ginger, which boasts a sweet and nutty flavour with a slightly spicy twist, and the super-decadent Mao Shan Wang, which features fresh, creamy durian flesh.
If you’re looking for something different, Grand Hyatt Singapore has introduced a new flavour in its traditional baked mooncakes menu: Orange Lotus with Double Yolk and Melon Seeds.
This has a refreshing zesty flavour that balances the savoury salted egg yolk, putting together a novel mooncake you can’t resist.
The traditional selections also include classic signatures such as Sesame Lotus with Double Yolk, White Lotus with Double Yolk, and White Lotus with Melon Seeds.
These mooncakes are all packed in elegant gift boxes that are decked in red and gold accents, with motifs that are inspired by celestial clouds from Chinese culture, as a tribute to the celebration of joy and luck during this festival.
Prices:
- Assorted snowskin mooncakes (box of eight): S$80 that packs two pieces of each flavour – Champagne, Lychee Martini, Strawberry Tequila, Black Sesame and Ginger.
- Assorted snowskin mooncakes (box of four): S$45 that packs one piece of each flavour – Champagne, Lychee Martini, Strawberry Tequila, Black Sesame and Ginger.
- Mao Shan Wang (box of eight): S$90
- Assorted traditional mooncakes (box of four): S$80 that packs one piece of each flavour – White lotus with Roasted Melon Seeds, White Lotus with Double Egg Yolk and Roasted Melon Seeds, Orange Lotus with Double Egg Yolk and Roasted Melon Seeds, Sesame Lotus with Double Egg Yolk and Black Sesame Seeds.
- Assorted traditional mooncakes (box of two): S$45 that packs two pieces of White Lotus with Double Egg Yolk.

Mdm Ling Bakery
For a fun and unique mooncake collection that’s great for gifting, we certainly recommend Mdm Ling Bakery’s, which has released the world’s first MONOPOLY Mooncake Street Smart Edition, in partnership with Hasbro.
Mdm Ling Bakery has previously released mooncakes with game board sets such as Snacks & Ladders, Imperial Chinese Chess, and International Chess Mooncake Set, however, this MONOPOLY one certainly takes the cake (no pun intended).
The box that houses the mooncakes can be opened up to reveal the game board, which features street names that are named after Mdm Ling’s signature cookies and their ingredients.
The box also includes the counters, MONOPOLY money, Chance and Community Chest cards, and houses and hotels, so you can get to the game play immediately.
In terms of mooncake flavours, you can choose from the following:
- Lavalicious! Signature Series: This is a halal-certified and vegetarian range that includes the Japanese Matcha Green Tea Mooncake, Nanyang Coffee Caramel Mooncake, Hong Kong Salted Egg Yolk Custard Mooncake, and Belgian-Italian Chocolate Hazelnut Mooncake. We recommend going for this if you want an Instagram-worthy shot that features delicious ingredients flowing out as you cut through the mooncakes.
- Desserlicious! Nostalgic Series: This vegetarian range is inspired by Chinese desserts and includes the Orange Peel Red Bean Mooncake, Longan Dan Feng Tea Mooncake, Osmanthus Goji Berries Mooncake, and Peanut Sesame Paste Mooncake
- Yummylicious! Cookie-Inspired Series: Since Mdm Ling Bakery is known for its signature cookies, it makes perfect sense to have a range that’s inspired by them. Flavours include Salted Mung Bean, Japanese Purple Sweet Potato, Cranberry Florentine Assorted Nuts, and Savoury Chicken Floss
- Luscious! Traditional Class Series: This includes classic flavours, Pure White Lotus with Melon Seeds and Pure White Lotus with Melon Seeds and Salted Yolk. These are also halal-certified and vegetarian.
- Lapi-licious! Floral Artistry Series: This is kueh lapis meets mooncake, and features flavours including Belgium Chocolate, Coffee Tiramisu, Signature Original, and Fragrant Pandan. Note that this comes in a gorgeous Peranakan-inspired box instead of the MONOPOLY set.
AVENUE ONE’s favourites: We truly enjoyed the decadent Belgian-Italian Chocolate Hazelnut Mooncake and the Nanyang Coffee Caramel Mooncake. The former is a crowd-pleaser that will delight any chocoholic and the latter stood out because of the use of Nanyang Coffee flavour that flows out from the mooncake as you bite into it – something we haven’t seen anywhere else.
Prices: S$118 for the MONOPOLY Street Smart sets and S$98 for the Lapi-licious! Floral Artistry Series.

Roku Gin x Janice Wong
Roku Gin partners Janice Wong to launch a collection of snowskin mooncakes that features the well-balanced, intricately brewed Japanese craft gin.
Flavours include:
- Sakura Strawberry Gin: a sweet and floral treat that showcases the Sakura flowers and leaves present in Roku Gin

- Matcha Lemon Thyme Gin: this has an earthy flavour that complements the green teas in Roku Gin.
These delectable mid-autumn confectionaries come in an intricately designed rabbit-themed tin. This special bundle includes a 200ml bottle of Roku Gin and two ornate ceramic cups, making it a perfect gift or treat to share with family and friends.
AVENUE ONE’s favourite: The Bergamot Yuzu Gin has a refreshing flavour that brings out the taste of the gin. This will be the flavour to look forward to if you are a gin-lover.

JU Signatures
Newly opened JU Signatures debuts with signature Teochew Orh Nee Mooncakes crafted by ex-Peony Jade Group’s Dim Sum Chef, Wong Kok Shyong.
Handcrafted using premium ingredients, these Teochew Orh Nee Mooncakes are made with healthier considerations such as reduced sugar, less peanut oil, natural colouring, and no added preservatives.
Moulded and shaped by hand, the spiral layers are intricately held by the extra thin, crisp crust. The handmade Orh Nee paste is another highlight. This is slowcooked for up to five hours so that it is velvety-smooth, creamy, with a well-calibrated level of sweetness that fuses perfectly with the flaky Teochew pastry crust.
Flavours include Pumpkin Orh Nee, Pumpkin Orh Nee with Single Yolk, Orh Nee with Double Yolk, and Matcha Mochi Lava Orh Nee.
AVENUE ONE’s favourite: We enjoyed the Flaky Teochew Orh Nee with Double Yolk. We love how creamy the Orh Nee is, contrasting its texture against the flaky crust. It is also among the less sweet options we’ve tried this season, without compromising on taste. The saltiness of the Double Yolk also gives this mooncake more dimension.
Price: From S$78 for four pieces
Promotion: 25% off on Shopee. Shopee flash deal on 19 August for further discounts.
Availability: Now until 10 September. Call 8876 7498, email [email protected] or visit its website

The Traditional Set includes four Traditional Single Yolk Baked Mooncakes and retails for S$72, while the Assorted Set includes one each of the Traditional Single Yolk, Ispahan, Japanese Red Bean Citrus, and Black Sesame flavours and retails for S$78.
