This mid-autumn festival, Le Méridien Kuala Lumpur celebrates with an enthralling ensemble of luxuriously flavoured, bite-size pieces of creative mooncakes. Amid the enchanting moonlight, take delight in the bold, indulgent flavours of traditionally baked mooncakes and award-winning exquisite snow skin varieties with innovative fillings – a perfect pairing for the season, adding just the right amount of cheer to any joyful reunion.
Presented in a lavish, deep red chest inspired by the mid-century vintage travelling trunks of yesteryear, Le Méridien Kuala Lumpur mooncakes packaging is by far one of the prettiest we have received this year. The mooncake set is now sold out, but you can still purchase their loose pieces for your loved ones and captivate hearts with joyous Mid-Autumn reunions.
For classics baked mooncakes, the hotel features Pure White Lotus Paste with Single Yolk, and Golden Pandan Paste with Single Yolk. Making an appearance this year are exciting new flavours, including Assorted Fruits and Nuts – a tasteful delight of almonds, walnuts, white sesame, redcurrants, melon seeds and zesty tangerine peel creating sensational texture and flavour; Hojicha Green Tea Lotus Paste; Red Bean Lotus Paste; and Pandan Lotus Mung Bean – best paired with a calming cup of chamomile tea!
Our favourite goes to Le Méridien Kuala Lumpur delicately handcrafted snow skin mooncakes. Whether it is Yuzu Calamansi with Confit Orange Peel in refreshing, citrusy notes with irresistible balance of sweet and sour; the unique Rainforest Tualang Honey and Figs- a creation with filling made using honey collected from Malaysian rainforest by the Tualang Orang Asli, melds perfectly with the distinctive fragrance of figs ; or illy coffee-infused snow skin mooncakes – a recognition towards Le Méridien’s global brand partnership with Italian brand, illycaffe, you will not be disappointed.
Guests may now choose between two new renditions: the Signature illy Coffee Snow Skin Mooncakes with Macadamia Nuts – illy Coffee blended in both snow skin and paste for a richer, deeper coffee taste; or the melt-in-your-mouth Signature illy Coffee Snow Skin Mooncakes with Soft Peanut Mochi Heart – illy Coffee blended into paste, wrapped with chewy mix of peanut mochi before being enclosed in snow skin. Last but not least, the luxurious Chivas Whisky with Golden Raisins! Exquisite snow skin mooncake encases 48-hour-Chivas-whisky-infused golden raisins.
