Shang Palace heralds the Mid-Autumn Festival with a luxurious Honey Chocolate Collection, on sale from 28 July to 15 September 2016.

The Honey Chocolate Collection features four flavours: Dark Chocolate, Milk Chocolate and Salted Toffee, White Chocolate Passion Fruit with Mango, and Roasted Sicilian Pistachio. These mooncakes incorporate raw and unprocessed Leatherwood Honey which originates from the rainforests of the Tarkine region in Tasmania where some of the world’s cleanest air and water are found. Unlike commercial honey, the rare Tasmania Leatherwood honey is cold-extracted to retain its flavour and aromatic properties. Tasmania Leatherwood honey is known for its distinctive taste, antibacterial properties and also helps to boost the immune system.

The Honey Chocolate Collection is the brainchild of Area Pastry Chef Hervé Potus. Each Honey Chocolate mooncake comes with a delicate chocolate shell infused with a creamy mousse-like filling, enveloping a dense and luscious honey centre within. Presented in an exquisite honeycomb-shaped gift box with a decorative bee feature, these premium mooncakes are priced at S$88 per box with two pieces of each flavour and will make ideal gifts for business associates.

Master Chef Steven Ng of Shang Palace has created three innovative flavours of the baked mooncake variety: Mini Baked Lychee Mooncake with Rose, Mini Baked Low Sugar Lotus Paste Mooncake with Macadamia Nuts and Mini Baked Mocha Mooncake with Hokkaido Milk. Shang Palace will also be offering perennial classics such as the traditional baked lotus paste mooncake with salted egg yolks. Variations with one, two or four yolks are available.

The Shang Palace Four Treasures Baked Mooncake Gift Set is another excellent gift. It comprises four regular baked mooncakes (one piece of each flavour): White Lotus Seed Paste with Double Yolks, White Lotus Seed Paste with Single Yolk, White Lotus Seed Paste and Mixed Nuts with Chicken Ham. The Shang Palace Mini Eight Treasures Baked Mooncake Gift Set includes eight mini baked mooncakes (two pieces of each flavour) – Mini Baked Custard, Mini Baked Lychee with Rose, Mini Baked Low Sugar Lotus Paste Mooncake with Macadamia Nuts and Mini Baked Mocha Mooncake with Hokkaido Milk. All baked mooncakes will be presented in a unique gift box with fabric overlay adorned with appliqué orchid motifs.
