Mooncake sales are one of the biggest signs that Mid-Autumn Festival is approaching. From snow skin to traditional lotus paste mooncakes, there’s nothing like sinking our teeth into this sweet treat every year.
This year, Cheers and Fairprice Xpress are bringing us limited edition Sanrio-themed baked mooncakes from 17 Aug to 21 Sep 2021. These adorable mooncakes also come in matching character bags and boxes so you can show off how cute they are to your friends on the ‘gram.
There are 3 different mooncake sets in this year’s collection to choose from. The Sanrio Odyssey Music Box can be opened up to reveal a wind-up music box shaped like a rocket. Now you can enjoy the gentle tinkling of background music while munching on the 4 mooncakes in this set.
Additionally, the set is completed with 6 pieces of Sanrio-themed postcards and envelopes to wish your loved ones a blessed Mid-Autumn Festival.
Durian mooncakes are pretty much an essential for every Singaporean household at this point. The set includes a Royale Dark Musang King mooncake (left) and a Shang-moon Emerald Lotus Salted Egg Lava mooncake (right).
There are also unique flavours such as the Dynasty Amber Walnut mooncake (left) and Meteor Wave Cherries mooncake (right). Each mooncake is embossed with a spaceship design along with the words “Sanrio characters” to match the outer space theme.
From 17 Aug to 8 Sep 2021, all the mooncake sets will be going at a promotional price. The Sanrio Odyssey Music Box is retailing at $125.90, while its usual price is $139.90.
