Ding Bakery
Ding Mooncake, Singapore’s premier mooncake brand, aims to dominate the Mid-Autumn Festival market with its luxurious mooncakes, and award-winning box designs. Ding Mooncake, by the long-standing Ding Bakery, which has a strong reputation for sending out the most charming creations every festive occasion, is here to shake things up with a gorgeous range of baked and snowskin mooncakes. If you’re looking for the best mooncakes in Singapore, you should most definitely consider Ding Mooncake! After all, there must be a reason why Ding Mooncake has more than 2000 5 star reviews on Google!
One of the most popular mooncakes that Ding Mooncake has come up with is undoubtedly their MSW Snow Skin Durian Mooncake which is masterfully handmade with real AAA Black Gold Mao Shan Wang from the highlands of Pahang. Pure, intense, and rich, the durian puree is unparalleled, and tastes even better than the original flesh of durian. Ding Mooncake has dedicated a lot of time and effort — more than a year of research — to building their repertoire of snow skin mooncakes with the finest ingredients.
We absolutely adore their stunning mooncake boxes which are dressed in gorgeous vibrant hues. The boxes can easily be repurposed into jewellery boxes, and they make incredible gifts for loved ones and business associates. We are very certain that everyone will be overjoyed to receive these dazzling boxes packed with the tastiest treats.
Their mooncakes were sold out last year before the Mid Autumn Festival even came around so we’ll suggest that you place an order as soon as possible! Their early bird discount of 40% is still running so don’t miss that. The proud home-grown brand offers free same day delivery for orders above $119 as well!
