This refreshing treat features crisp fruity notes with juicy bites of grapefruit which are soaked with wild ‘Tualang’ honey for up to 24 hours. Collected from the Malaysian rainforest by the Tualang Orang Asli, the ‘Tualang’ honey adds its scrumptious flavour to its health and wound-healing benefits, to make these delicate masterpieces perfect to satisfy all sweet-tooth cravings. Furthermore, the sweetness of this local honey melds perfectly with the fresh citrusy fragrance of grapefruit. Making a comeback is our crowd-favourite coffee-infused snow skin mooncake. Savour a new rendition: the Signature illy Coffee “Macchiato” & Roasted Hazelnut where illy Coffee is blended in both snow skin and paste. The fragrance and taste of illy coffee is intense and utterly delightful, promising a sensorial experience of taste – a recognition towards Le Méridien’s global brand partnership with Italian brand, illycaffe.

“As one of the most auspicious festivals in Chinese culture, the Mid-Autumn Festival is often filled with endearing moments of meaningful family reunions, a tradition we are extremely proud to be a part of, and to associate it with the global Le Méridien Family programme. Our award-winning mooncakes have emerged as winners in The Star Newspaper’s Mooncake Awards for two consecutive years (2019 & 2020) – an accomplishment we’re all extremely proud of considering we only started to introduce them to the Malaysian market back in 2019.
