The Mid-Autumn Festival (celebrated on September 17th this year) is one of the most spectacular celebrations in the Chinese culture and mooncakes have long been a signature highlight and hallmark tradition of the festivities each year. The history of mooncakes at The Peninsula dates back to 1986 in Hong Kong, where Michelin-starred Spring Moon’s culinary team raised the bar on this storied confectionary, blending eastern tradition with western culinary techniques to create an utterly decadent treat. Since then, the mooncakes’ popularity and status has continued to rise.
