THE exotic Imperial Ivory mooncake, also known as the “Yeh Ming Zhu”, takes centre stage at The Baker’s Cottage (TBC) for the Mid Autumn Festival.

The mooncake features cooling winter melon, dried longan, macadamia nuts and melon kernel seeds as its main ingredients, and is wrapped in a creamy milk butter pastry skin.

“We decided on the name Imperial Ivory as it represents the precious “Yeh Ming Zhu” pearl in terms of its colour and value.

“The mooncake takes its inspiration from traditional Chinese folklore, and like a pearl, it represents something premium and valuable,” The Baker’s Cottage chief executive officer Marvin Lau said.

The Imperial Ivory mooncake is presented in an elegant white colour and boasts of a modern and exotic flavour.

The three other new flavours are Purpleberry Cheese, Seaweed Chicken Floss and Jasmine Cheesy Citrus from the Crystal Skin Series.

The Purpleberry Cheese has a lotus paste with antioxidant rich blackcurrants and cheese filling with purpleberry pastry skin.
