Charlene Fang recommends five not-to-be missed flavours to sample before the Mid-Autumn Festival draws to a close mid-month

Exquisite red date with wolfberry
Herbal goodness…not in the form of chicken soup but encased in a mooncake. What’s not to like? $55 (per box). Pan Pacific Singapore



Mini snowskin with Kwai Feh liqueur
No, this isn’t some newfangled way of pronouncing ‘kwa-fee’. Kwai Feh directly translates as ‘precious consort’, and is the name bestowed on the pure essence of lychee fruit. Whatever…we inhaled the lot. $38 (per box). New Majestic Hotel



Mini baked rosebud with custard
Roses are red…and rosebuds can be combined to make mooncake paste. Who knew? The pastry chef at Shangri-La Singapore has certainly gone to great lengths to come up with an original concoction. $43.80 (per box). Shangri-La Hotel



Mini snowskin strawberry and dark chocolate
This one is a no-brainer. Strawberries and chocolate? Hello, where’s the bubbly?
$45 (per box). Fairmont Hotel



Bloody Mary snowskin with custard paste
We cheered when mooncakes took the Baileys route. Imagine the joy we felt when we found out they come Bloody Mary-infused! $42 (per box). St Regis Hotel
