Back in my fridge, I kept one of Peony Jade’s new snow skin mooncake creation. Besides its beautiful oriental box design, this is the type of mooncakes which many young generations will love. These mini snow skin mooncakes are prepared using five premium ingredients. They are Dark Valrhona Chocolate, Sea Salt, Peanut Butter, Banana Bits and Feuilletine. With a small bite, you will get to enjoy a wow mixed of sweet and salty flavours, crispy mouthfeel and finally, a bittersweet aftertaste. The price for a box of 8 mini snow skin mooncakes is $62.
