Is the custard mooncake delicious?

Soft and rich, it melts in your mouth, leaves a fragrant aroma on your lips and teeth, and has endless aftertaste! Really delicious!

I think Maxim’s mooncakes with custard and sweet filling are the most delicious. Although the ones from Peninsula are also very good, they are delicious. This one I like is more cost-effective and tastes about the same.

Brand: Hong Kong Maxim's

Flavor: Liquid Custard

Rating: Packaging: 4, Outer skin: 4, filling: 4, overall: 4

Maxim Liu Xin probably became popular the year before last, so it is very popular every year. Let’s talk about the advantages first: the outer skin is thin and soft, and the egg yolk flavor It's rich; on the downside, it's a little too oily, and it's easy to crack during delivery. In addition, this year’s Maxim’s packaging has a Star Wars version, which is quite worth collecting.

Peninsula Mini Custard Mooncake

Brand: Peninsula Hotel Hong Kong

Flavor: Custard, Egg Yolk and Lotus Paste

Rating: Packaging: 4. Crust: 4. Filling: 5. Overall: 4.5

Peninsula mooncakes are also quite famous and are known as the "Rolls Royce" of mooncakes. Let’s talk about the custard first. Although it is not liquidy, it has a strong milky flavor. Compared to Maxim’s, it is not as sweet and the egg yolk lotus paste has a whole egg yolk in it. However, the skin of Peninsula mooncakes is separated, which affects the taste. And considering the price/performance ratio of more than 40 yuan each, it’s painful to eat.

Liuxinshahuang is Adornos’ new product this year, and I am very pleased with it. I’m happy that I can eat delicious mooncakes without express delivery. Although the packaging is slightly inferior to the above two, the taste is surprising. There is a fluffy sandy texture inside, and you can actually eat the egg yolk particles. Rotate it twice in the microwave and the milk aroma will be stronger~ This is a great value for money!
