My first mooncake of the year, none other than the famous custard mooncake from Spring Moon~ even though the price of this hotly coveted item made the headlines earlier this year at $485, I was still lucky enough to receive a box of these as a gift.At such a huge increase in price I was expecting something a little different, something more special, but it wasn't to be.

At such a huge increase in price I was expecting something a little different, something more special, but it wasn't to be. Opening the box revealed the same golden yellow rounds with the signature dragon stamped on top wafting its enticing buttery flavour. The best way to enjoy these is to heat them slightly in the oven so that the custard and butter pastry are toasty warm. Unfortunately I was in a rush this time and had to make do with one straight from the fridge. Cutting into it the pastry was firm and crumbly, but looking at the filling it was holey in places and the custard was disappointingly dry. Biting into it the flavours were all there, but the texture was not as nice as before... I did not realise that a significant increase in price meant a decrease in quality. What has happened to you Spring Moon?
