Maxim Mooncake:
Premium Custard LAVA Mooncake ($49 / 8 pcs)

Despite the remarkable product “Egg Custard Mooncake”, this year Mei-Xin brings new addition to their phenomenal series -“LAVA Custard Mooncake”. Not only is it packed in a delicate design, this outstanding product also gives a new tasting experience with rich and running egg custard filling.

“LAVA Custard Mooncake” is the creation of lava-custard filling mixed with crushed golden salted egg yolk. The creamy and aromatic lava provides whole new experiences for mooncake. Initially, I had low expectation for the flowing lava. However, as I was slicing through the mooncake, the golden creamy custard flowed out. This is the first time they launch in Singapore, it’s so, so good I have already finished one box. Can heat in microwave for 3-5 seconds or you can choose to eat it without re-heating. I love it more when I re-heat. It’s finger licking good! Heard they only have limited quantity, better grab it fast before they sold out. I am going to buy more to gift to my relatives! “LAVA Custard Mooncake” comes in a premium jade green box.

Maxim Mooncake:
Premium Egg Custard Mooncake ($48 / 8 pcs)

Always a hit every Mid Autumn Festival, Mei-Xin’s “Egg Custard Mooncake” is made with premium butter and french cream. Fresh salted egg yolks are first baked to bring out the aromatic oil in them. They are then mixed with the custard filling and coated with a thin crust before it goes back into the oven. This double-baking recipe makes Mei-Xin’s “Egg Custard Mooncake” more fragrant and creamy. In addition, their custard mooncakes contain no artificial colouring. Exquisitely designed with gold foil embossing, the “Egg Custard Mooncake” is packed in an elegant pearl white box, being the ultimate gift idea for this Mid-Autumn Festival.
