Golden Jade with buttermilk custard

On Mid-Autumn night the harvest moon is supposed to be at its brightest and fullest, which gives rise to the celebration’s other name: Mooncake Festival.

The Mid-Autumn Festival originated as a harvest festival three thousand years ago, as a way for agrarian Chinese to celebrate the bounty of their fields and orchards. It was a time for the cessation of work, and one of the rare nights in which hard-working farmers stayed up late to admire the lustre of the full moon while enjoying the delicacies associated with the festival. Apart from pumpkin, pomelos, duck and wine, the central food focus of the festival was a dense, wheat flour pastry called the mooncake. So named for its circular shape, mooncakes were traditionally made with red bean paste, lotus paste and nuts.

I took some photos at First World Plaza, nice decoration there, click on the link to view it.

 The selection ranges from the humble red bean paste mooncake, low-sugar white lotus paste, traditional lotus paste with single yolk, lotus paste with double yolk, Ng Yan [assorted nut mooncake] and Kam Tui (nuts and preserved fruit mooncake) to more subtly creative options such as green tea lotus paste and durian lotus paste, white lotus paste with black sesame yolk, Golden Jade with single yolk, Pu Er lotus paste with single yolk and blueberry paste mooncake with single yolk.

Resorts World Genting's moon cakes

Delicious new options for the modern mooncake fan include the light snow skin mango with pomelo, this is my favourite I love mango and it's perfect match to try this. If you like to eat white lotus paste, you'll also like the white lotus paste with dried mandarin orange jingsa, sweet corn paste with caramel nuts, cheese jingsa, Golden Jade with lime and nuts, and Golden Jade with buttermilk custard.

As mother, we are constantly on the lookout for new experiences to satisfy their children's exploratory needs. Scotts, a Malaysia household favourite from GlaxoSmithKline Consumer Healthcare Sdn Bhd (GSK CH), understanding this need have introduced an innovative and fun product: the new Scott's DHA Gummies.

The delicious range orange or strawberry flavours and in the shape of three different sea creatures - fish, crab, octopus. The DHA component in Scott's DHA Gummies is microencapsulated with a patented technology that locks in the goodness of fish oil without the fishy taste and smell. This is good as my children like them, this helps children that doesn't like the fishy taste and smell. These gummies give children to take in the key nutrients that help support their brain development and growth in a more fun and enjoyable way.

 The launched was held at Aquaria KLCC, in conjunction with the unveiling of Scott's DHA Gummies, Scotts also launched its 'Bright Little Explorers' campaign, in a bid to raise awareness on the importance of DHA in supporting children's brain development as well as helping nurture curiosity and adventurous minds.
