There’s something undeniably magical about the Mid-Autumn Festival — the glowing lanterns, the scent of brewed tea in the air, and of course, the joy of sharing mooncakes with people you love.

This year, my celebrations got a little more elegant (and a whole lot more whimsical) with Sofitel Kuala Lumpur Damansara’s 2025 Mooncake Collection — and let me just say… chef’s kiss!

Themed “Symphony of the Moon,” this year’s collection is like a love letter to tradition — but with a chic modern twist that I couldn’t resist.

Let’s talk packaging first (because you know I’m a sucker for gorgeous design).

💜 The Golden Yue Premium Box? Total showstopper. Picture a lavender-and-gold beauty that actually spins to reveal your mooncakes like little treasures. It’s giving “celestial centrepiece vibes” and yes, I may or may not have twirled it more times than I needed to. It even comes with a bespoke chopstick set — luxe much?

🌸 Then there’s the Moonlight Duet Classic Box, which had me at hello with its soft pastel tones, floral cut-outs, and elegant octagonal shape. It feels like opening a dreamy little secret each time. A poetic nod to yin and yang, tradition and trend — and just so… me.

Now onto the good stuff inside…

From Musang King Durian Snow Skin (rich, bold, and proud of it) to the stunning Hibiscus Strawberry Cream Cheese (a pink, creamy beauty inspired by our national flower — how patriotic!), every bite felt like a festive indulgence. And yes, they’ve got all the classics too — Salted Egg Yolk, Red Bean, and my personal must-have, Pure White Lotus… Because some traditions deserve to be devoured.

The cherry on top? You can even personalise your mooncake boxes with your logo or a heartfelt message — perfect for gifting or adding that meaningful touch to your celebrations. Corporate gifting goals, anyone?

Prices start from RM178+ (Moonlight Duet) and RM268+ (Golden Yue), but early birds get to save with exclusive discounts — so don’t wait too long to snap them up.

This Mid-Autumn, whether you’re gathering under the stars, sending sweet thoughts from afar, or just treating yourself (because you deserve it), Sofitel’s mooncakes add that perfect touch of sparkle, story, and sweetness.
