    Taste testing luxury branded mooncakes 🥮

Transcript

I placed send me some mooncakes, so let's have a taste test. There's basically two flavors, pandan and asanas. I assume this one is pandan. It has a little butterfly on it, which I'm gonna assume is, like, specially made. Not gonna lie. I feel like this mooncake is kinda small. I guess it's because they think I'm skinny. I'm just gonna nom it. Cheers. This is a Splinter's. Oh, it has the same motif on it. Feel like having a little combo on their mooncakes would have been cute. Cheers. Pond done. Okay. The mooncake verdict is that they're average. I personally love the plain classic lotus mooncake flavor with no egg yolk in the middle, and all these funny flavors. Like, I can see the vision but it's just not there for me. Love you guys so much. Bye!
