澳門十月初五月餅 October 5th Mooncakes (核桃黑芝麻 Walnut & Black Sesame (1))

Got the mix fruit& green tea & it is super good compared to any I've had before! I bought another 3 boxes and gifting them to close family and friends.

I liked the variety.Moon cakes are smaller than another brand I ordered twice: and previously reviewed. At $30, this brand is pricey! Oh yeah, if you don’t read traditional, long form Chinese characters, as I no longer can, you are on your about guessing which cake is what of the four kinds. Fortunately I was able to recognize each as a person of Chinese descent who grew up with the Holiday in Hong Kong. May not appeal to those trying them for the first time!

I love black sesame, and I like moon cakes, but I will not buy this again. It's almost $10 for one cake. In hindsight, I could have spent $20 and got three more cakes of the same size in a metal tin, had I bought a different brand. In any case, the cake was okay. The filling was mildly nutty from the black sesame and walnuts, and it was quite sweet. Most moon cakes are extremely sweet, making them all the better to drink a bitter tea with as you eat your piece. The outside shell was not stale, though it left much to be desired. In other words, the dough was flavorless and perhaps a little too oily, even by moon cake standards. It was also faintly squished due to the fact that the flimsy box was not well packed, which leads me to my biggest gripe.Again, this is one cake that comes in a tiny cardboard box. If it is not packed well, your cake might arrive crushed. Thankfully, my moon cake survived shipping mostly unscathed, but the box clearly didn't. I'm so glad I got this as a festive treat for myself and my kids, and that I wasn't giving this as a gift to a relative or friend. :-/

It was just excellent for our celebration

The flavor was very good. The texture was a little chewy, not the same as a regular mooncake. and is not as sweet. It's a good alternative if you want a different flavor and texture.

Not bad

There were four flavors which all tasted pretty good.

I really like these. The cake is delicious and the filling is good too! I wish I could get just green tea!
