The best mooncakes in Singapore for Mid-Autumn Festival 2025

Cantonese fine-dining restaurant The Black Pearl presents a stunning mooncake collection this year that's guaranteed to impress. The Pearl Signature box ($98) and Pearl Luxe Limited-Edition box ($198) come in sleek, black suede cases – perhaps not for the traditional at heart, but perfect as an edgy, contemporary alternative for gifting. The signature set features four baked mooncakes in flavours of tea, from the delicate and fruity rose lychee tea, to the brown sugar red dates ginger tea with longan paste. Those with a sweet tooth will enjoy the white peach longjing tea, and for fans of egg yolk in mooncakes, try the citrusy yuzu single yolk mooncake. Meanwhile, the Pearl Luxe Limited-Edition box doubles up as a mini chest of drawers, hiding creations like the Hong Kong-style baked mooncake with a gooey custard centre.

Available for delivery and self-collection from now to October 5. Order here.

No Mid-Autumn roundup is complete without a nod to the Raffles Hotel Singapore, home to the now-iconic champagne truffle snowskin mooncakes ($99). This perennial bestseller returns in 2025 alongside fresh creations that prove the classic isn’t the only star of the show. Standouts this year include the merlot and fig truffle snowskin ($97) with its rich and jammy centre and the sakura and raspberry snowskin ($97), which lands with a delicate floral tang and a tart finish. Each bite reminds you why Raffles continues to set the bar: the snow skin is thin and pliant, the filling fragrant without being cloying and the balance spot on. The mooncakes are housed in a collector’s tin you’ll want to keep, a hand-painted illustration of the hotel’s century-old cast-iron fountain, framed by lush foliage from its historic grounds.

Mid-Autumn season, Marina Bay Sands is brightening things up to celebrate tradition with a modern glow. Inspired by the iconic landmark’s shimmering reflections across the bay and sky, the Yellow Box embodies Moondance Yellow – a vibrant hue that captures its energy and spirit. Inside, discover Marina Bay Sands’ first signature mooncake flavour: the baked torch ginger blossom with double yolk mooncake. A luxurious creation of silky lotus paste delicately infused with the citrus-floral notes of torch ginger, its richness is elevated by twin golden yolks that mirror the luminous full moon. Beyond indulgence, the set also comes with four individually packed mooncakes, a cutlery set and a playful twist: a tic-tac-toe game designed for you to create meaningful connections with family and friends.

Available for pre-order from August 20 and for collection by October 6. Order here.

For the hotel's grand 125th anniversary this year, it's gone all out with a giant chrysanthemum yuzu mango snowskin mooncake ($88) housed in a woven basket, as the headliner for this year's Mid-Autumn Festival. But if you prefer your mooncakes in their proper proportions, there are plenty to choose from as well. We like the chendol snowskin and lotus seed paste with kaya mochi, both new additions to the line-up, with a hyperlocal spin. Or order the snowskin combo ($86 for four pieces), which comes with chrysanthemum yuzu mango, mango pomelo, cempedak and D24 durian mooncakes. Of course, you can't forget the hotel's iconic durian snowskin selection – a hit every year. It's not just D24 and Mao Shan Wang that are on offer, but other popular variants like Black Thorn, Phoenix and Golden Dragon as well.

The French pastry maestro known for his sculptural desserts turns his attention to mooncakes in a Singapore-exclusive release. The collection features nine creations: four traditional baked mooncakes and five chocolate-shell creations. We sampled the baked selection ($108) and came away seriously impressed. The presentation is sleek and modern, a refreshing departure from the usual ornate tins, yet feels unmistakably festive. The flavours are where Grolet really shines, marrying French nougatine with traditional Chinese paste. Flavours include vanilla and pecan, pumpkin seed, peanut, and chocolate and orange – Grolet’s favourite flavour combo made with a blend of cocoa, candied orange and azuki paste, finished with Grué de Cacao nougatine for a bittersweet punch. Those with an Asian “not too sweet” palate might find these mooncakes a touch on the rich side, but anyone with a sweet tooth will revel in these indulgent treats.

This Mid-Autumn Festival, Wah Lok Cantonese Restaurant and Carlton Hotel are introducing two new mini snow skin flavours: the Da Hong Pao milk tea ($85 for eight pieces) is robust and fragrant without being overbearingly sweet, while the strawberry passionfruit mooncake ($85 for eight pieces) is bright and refreshing, with a hint of liquorice citrus. You can't go wrong with the traditional white lotus paste with double yolk ($95 for four pieces) and mixed nuts variations ($95 for four pieces), with the latter including a medley of roasted tangerine peel, wintermelon, nuts and seeds. The mini walnut moon tart with yolk ($90 for eight pieces) is equally well-received each year, with a low-sugar and yolk-free option available as well. This year's packaging is a lovely tribute to SG60, featuring an elegant red box with orchid motifs.
