Casahana Mooncake Promotion 2014 - New Flavours

The Mid Autumn festival mooncake promotions are still underway, albeit towards the end, where eateries and restaurants everywhere are showcasing and selling their mooncakes. I had the chance to be given a box of Casahana Mooncakes to try out a couple of days back, with the highlights being their two new flavours, Crimson Opera and Dark Knight. 

Casahana Mooncake Promotion 2014 - New Flavours

Truth to be told, when I was presented with these new flavours, I was a bit hesitant to try them out. To me, nothing beats the good old White Lotus Paste with an egg yolk inside. Check out my previous writeup a couple of years back on Casahana's mooncake. (Casahana Mooncake For Mid Autumn Festival 2012) Nevertheless, it's always good to try out new flavours. 

Nothing beats the traditional Casahana Lotus paste mooncake

The new Crimson Opera mooncake from Casahana

The new paste flavour from Casahana, aptly named the Crimson Opera due to its reddish hue is an artistic presentation of a flower. The lotus paste filling had a hint of sweetness from beetroot, followed by the flavorful cheese and creamy white chocolate at the centre

Casahana Dark Knight Mooncake

It does look the part, being black and all, Casahana's Dark Knight Mooncake comes in black encasing. The fragrant black sesame and black bean paste filling inside comes with soft brown sugar omochi wrapped in a charcoal pastry cloak. Unique flavour, yet somewhat appetising once you bite into it.
