The Okura Prestige Bangkok is delighted to unveil its exquisite “Over the Moon – Mooncake Collection.” Embark on a heavenly odyssey in which tradition and sophistication combine in a presentation worthy of the stars. Available from 1 July 2024 to 29 September 2024.
The annual Moon Festival, known as ‘Tsukimi’ in Japan, is a time to cherish the autumn moon. Literally translating to ‘moon-viewing,’ Tsukimi falls on the night of mid-autumn when the moon is at its biggest and brightest. Across Japan people gather to celebrate Earth’s nearest celestial satellite in all its grandeur and they use the occasion to exchange traditional sweet gifts.
Inspired by the spirit of Tsukimi, The Okura Prestige Bangkok’s “Over the Moon – Mooncake Collection” captures the essence of Japan’s refined customs and culture. Each mooncake is a testament to this rich heritage, showcasing flavours that tantalize the taste buds while evoking a sense of tradition. These are mooncakes that transcend the ordinary.
The “Over the Moon – Mooncake Collection” features a curated selection of four captivating flavours, each meticulously prepared using the finest ingredients. Savour the indulgent richness of the ‘Chanthaburi Monthong with Yolk’, in which the bitter-sweet allure of Monthong durian is perfectly balanced by the creamy smoothness of a golden yolk. For a touch of sophisticated intrigue, the ‘Coffee with Yolk’ intertwines the robust notes of freshly roasted coffee with the luxurious taste of salted egg yolk to create a truly unique experience. The third mooncake, the ‘Green Tea with Macadamia’, offers a calming escape. Fragrant green tea, known for its calming properties, is infused into the delicate pastry and further enhanced by the delightful crunch of premium macadamia nuts. Finally, for a taste of pure timeless tradition, the ‘Custard’ mooncake boasts a classic velvety smooth filling that makes it a cornerstone of the Mid-Autumn Festival, evoking as it does a sense of warmth and togetherness.
Much more than just a collection of mooncakes, these confections make a prestigious gift that reflects the impeccable taste of the giver and their high regard for the recipient. The mooncakes are crafted with meticulous attention to detail and presented in a stunning box adorned with a heavenly design. This exquisite packaging, reminiscent of a moon-lit night sky, is certain to leave a lasting impression.
