On the outside, you’ll get handcrafted mochi snow skin that gives this adorable-looking mooncake a chewy texture as well as slivers of gold to adorn the precious rabbit ears. On the inside, it’s an explosion of Japanese-inspired flavours with a light and refreshing filling of Japanese white bean with yuzu zest.
The artisans behind both brands didn’t stop there, because the packaging of this mooncake is equally beautiful: it’s a full moon-inspired round box complete with a tan Nappa leather handle that you’ll want to display as a home décor piece.
If you’re planning to give this as a gift, make it even more special by adding a finishing touch with Bynd Artisan’s Rabbit Leather Charm for an additional S$10.
