Moon Cake Festival 2016 - Summer Palace Restaurant Marriott Hotel Putrajaya Special Crafted Mooncake For Mid Autumn


Mooncake is an important symbol for the mid-Autumn Festival as it symbolises longevity and family reunion besides the lantern. From now onwards; Summer Palace Restaurant Marriott Hotel Putrajaya offers a nice selection as gifts for friends and family.


Traditionally, the mooncake is round in shape, a symbol of unity, with a thin pastry layer and a rich filling made from lotus seed paste or red bean paste with an egg yolk in the centre.


In recent years, the variety of flavours of mooncake has become a great challenge to Pastry Chef due to the demand from customers who would like to savour these new flavours.


One of the more popular flavours is the green tea flavoured mooncake. Celebrating 2016 Mid-Autumn Festival, Chef Chan (Head of Pastry and Dim Sum) of Summer Palace Restaurant Marriott Hotel Putrajaya has crafted out 5 special mooncakes flavours.


The first of which is the Crystal Green tea Paste with Single Yolk.


The second is the traditional Baked Mooncake with Lotus Paste and Single Yolk.


 While the third is the Shanghai Mooncake with Single Yolk & Duo Paste of Jade Pandan & Supreme White Lotus. This is followed by the Baked Mooncake with Red Bean Paste & Single Yolk and the last one is the Crystal Durian Paste With Single Yolk.


Chef Chan who hails from Ipoh, Perak had his basics mooncake making from the guidance of his mother who was known for making mooncakes. With more than 15 years experience in traditional mooncake making, Chef Chan is able to make these mooncakes with a fairly thin crust while having the right balance of oil and sweetness level that will be a delight to eat.
