Mooncake galore...

Every cakery I walked pass, every hotel I walk past... mooncakes everywhere.

The little round cakes filled with sweet lotus paste and comes in a HUGE variety of flavours from single, double to quadruple salty yokes, yam paste, ice cream, lucious durian, truffle, brandy, green tea and lotsa lotsa more more more!

I am not exactly an ardent fan of mooncakes. Preferring to nibble on the tiny ones as I get nauseated easily by the cloying sweet taste. I love the ones with yolk as the saltiness balances the sweetness and of course the ice cream and durian ones!

Christel raved to me about Marriott Hotel's durian mooncakes that are filled with goodness durian flesh! THIS is one mooncake I would love to sink my teeth into. *drool*

Lanterns of all shapes and sizes are also out, attracting children and even adults to buy. From cute cartoon characters to the traditional paper and candle ones, one is certainly spoilt for choice.

Bought a forever friends lantern and am extremely leeming to buy a cherry blossom and zen like bamboo ones to decorate yours truly home with...

Maybe I would succumb to the lantern fever in the next 24 hours~
