Tiger Lily and Hazelnut chocolate Mooncake



I discovered something new at Raffles Hotel this year. Besides their signature champagne chocolate mooncake truffle. They came out with Tiger Lily and Hazelnut chocolate mooncake.

The brown mooncake shown on the left is their hazelnut version. The luminous auburn snowskin conceals velvety white lotus paste that yields a surprising crunch of hazelnuts! Every bite of the lotus paste is filled with the hazelnuts. It adds a good punch to your taste buds.The final flourish to this pastry is the creamy hazelnut chocolate truffle eggs. One bite of it gave me a sensational feeling especially when the hazelnut chocolate filling slowly melts in your mouth.The snowskin Hazelnut chocolate mooncake will delight and amuse the child in us.Definitely all kids and adults will love this creation.

The orange mooncake shown in the picture is none other the snow skin Tiger Lily mooncake. By the glance of it, it emanates sophistication and style. The Tiger Lily takes inspiration from the famous Long Bar cocktail served at the Raffles Hotel. The cocktail bursts with tropicana flavours of passion fruit, mango and lime. This shall please the most discerning palates. If you are in the mood for something unique and tropical, go ahead with this new flavour.One bite of the Tiger Lily makes you feel you are having the cocktail at a bar. This is a good dessert to wind down after a long day at work. Paired it with a glass of white wine will be totally sublime.It has definitely tantalize my taste bud so I hope this Tiger Lily mooncake will tantalize yours too. I am pretty sure the impressive look and taste of the Tiger Lily this will make a great gift. The name Tiger Lily makes a decent entrance to your host's hands.
