Joy Luck Teahouse Launches Its First-ever Mooncake Collection, Which Comes with Fruity and Tea-based Flavours

This year, celebrate Mid-Autumn Festival with Joy Luck Teahouse, which is set to launch its first-ever series of mooncakes! Baked to glistening perfection, the mini mooncakes are available in both fruity and tea-based flavors. 

They come in a box of 8 (2 x 4 flavors) at just S$48! Alternatively, get them individually packed at just S$6.50 each. There are four flavors to discover:

Lychee Lotus Paste Mooncake 迷你荔枝

Lychee Lotus Paste Mooncake 迷你荔枝: With every bite, relish the fragrance and refreshing sweetness of the lychee.

Blueberry Lotus Paste Mooncake 迷你蓝莓

Blueberry Lotus Paste Mooncake 迷你蓝莓: Fresh blueberries are embedded within the lotus seed paste. Enjoy the juicy burst of the berries!

Cassia Flowers Lotus Paste Mooncake 迷你桂花

Cassia Flowers Lotus Paste Mooncake 迷你桂花: The lotus paste is generously flecked with cassia petals, which contribute a delicate floral aroma.

Pu Er Tea Lotus Paste Mooncake 迷你普洱茶

Pu Er Tea Lotus Paste Mooncake 迷你普洱茶: The pu er tea leaves add a mellow and earthy note that helps ground the sweetness of the lotus paste. 

Pairing with Hong Kong-style beverages

The mini mooncakes will go well with Joy Luck Teahouse’s Hong Kong-style bubble milk tea: Pearl of the Orient. It is made with Joy Luck Teahouse’s milk tea, complemented with a generous amount of brown sugar tapioca balls. The Hong Kong-style milk tea follows a secret recipe that calls for a blend of superior-quality tea leaves imported from Sri Lanka. European full cream evaporated milk is added to the brew to lend a moderately sweet flavor.

There is also the “Pearls of Joy” series, which features Hong Kong-style beverages. It uses healthier pearls compared to the usual tapioca pearls: Seaweed Jelly Pearls and Lychee Popping Pearls. The seaweed pearls are firmer and have fewer calories. The Lychee Popping Pearls have a delightful texture — bite into each pearl and lychee juice oozes out. There are three new cold bubble fizzy drinks in this series, each a fusion of Hong Kong and Singapore influences Lychee Fizz 荔枝蘇打, Sour Plum Fizz 酸梅蘇打, and Honey Lemon Fizz 檸檬蜜蘇打. Boasting a sweet fragrance, lychee is a popular fruit in Hong Kong, used as an ingredient for many beloved Hong Kong desserts. A palate cleanser, sour plum invigorates the senses with its sweet-sour note. Boasting medicinal properties, honey lemon is used traditionally to soothe the throats; it is also good for the vocal cords.

The mini mooncakes will be available for pre-order in stores and on https://joyluckteahouse.oddle.me/en_SG/.
