Xian,
1 September 2015 – Following
this year’s global fashion trends, Shangri-La Hotel, Xian rolls out its 2015
mooncake collection with a touch of China in its packaging. Guests can choose from pure red, hot pink and
tiffany blue.
The colourful, yet chic
packaging is filled with 23 traditional and innovative flavours for guests to
enjoy. There are 10 kinds of gift boxes,
including one lantern-style Disney mooncake box, which makes great gifts for
business partners, families and friends.
Strictly following the
traditional way of making a mooncake, the culinary team chooses fine
lotus seed to grind into paste for mooncakes that tantalise the taste buds with
freshness. The 23 flavours include some
of the popular ones from the 2014 collection, such as Lotus Bean Paste with Egg
Yolk, Mixed Nuts Paste. All mooncakes
are made using a low-sugar recipe and the hotel chefs ensure the balance of
both taste and nutrition.
The Disney mooncake gift box
has been popular and widely praised by the market since its launch last year. This year, Shangri-La Hotel, Xian will release
the new Disney collection gift box to give children a fun-filled festive
season. The lantern-shaped gift box is
printed with classic Disney cartoon figures Lilo and Stitch, with go-around
lights for adults and kids to play with.
The Disney collection includes
five different Momoyama Mooncake flavours: Chestnut Paste, Blackcurrant Paste,
Chocolate Paste, Mango and Egg Custard, and Pumpkin Paste. Momoyama is a
newly developed mooncake layer from Momoyama, Japan. Made with white
kidney bean paste, egg yolk, milk and cream, it is famous for its smooth
texture.
The mooncake collection is
available now at the Mooncake Boutique on the lobby level and priced from RMB90
to RMB388. For enquiries or
