Once in a Blue Moon Mooncake by Dorsett Grand Subang

September is definately one a very rare month that we get to enjoy lots of holidays and it is indeed Once in a Blue Moon. Matching perfectly with the theme that had been set by Grand Dorsett Subang for upcoming Mid Autumm festival with their settings of mooncake Once in a Blue Moon.

Mooncake these days are getting more variety of flavour, however there are some classic that is still not to be missed. This year Master Chef Alex Chan from The Emperor Chinese Restaurant, Dorsett Grand Subang, handcrafts the classic mooncake varieties with a twist. The hotel’s signature mooncake for this year is the Crystal Skin Pandan Lotus Paste with Single Yolk which embodies the Dorsett identity with its snow skin in blue.

Blue? Yup, it matches back to their theme Once in a Blue Moon as we were being showcase by the chef on the making of the blue snow skin.
