Masterchef Lap Fai proves that mooncakes can be beneficial to your health, as he creates three healthful snowskin mooncakes.

Orchard Hotel Singapore’s renowned Chinese restaurant, Hua Ting, offers three new snowskin mooncakes that prove to benefit your health.

 

This year, masterchef Lap Fai created a new baked mooncake, Black Bean Paste with Melon Seeds. It’s a mix of black been paste (full of anti-oxidants, fiber and protein) and melon seeds (rich in omega-3 fatty acids and calcium).

 

New on the snowskin menu is the Mini Purple Sweet Potato Paste snowskin mooncake and the Mini Purple Sweet Potato Paste with Chocolate snowskin mooncake. Unlike the calorie-heavy white lotus paste, purple sweet potatoes have proven health benefits such as anti-oxidant and anti-inflammatory properties. The chocolate version, replaces the traditional egg yolk with a chocolate centre, lowering the cholesterol count.

 

Other baked mooncake flavours available include White Lotus Paste with Macadamia Nuts (with no yolk, single yolk or double yolk) and Seeds of Harmony. Other mini snowskin mooncake flavours include Custard with Yolk, White Lotus Paste with Yolk, Green Tea with Yolk and Green Tea Twist with Yolk.

 

The mooncakes from Hua Ting are available from now till 19 September. To order, call 6739 6577 or email huating.ohs@millenniumhotels.com.
