This Mid-Autumn Festival, Mia Saigon proudly presents the "Hỷ Tước Đăng Mai" Mooncake Collection, which elegantly captures the refined beauty of magpies perched on plum blossom branches, inspired by the hotel’s Art Collection.
In Eastern culture, magpies are cherished symbols of joy and prosperity, a sentiment that is gracefully and subtly captured in the mooncake box design. These birds, known for their melodious songs that bring tidings of good fortune, are delicately depicted perched together on a plum blossom branch, adorned with fragile, blooming flowers. This imagery beautifully symbolizes the reunion and happiness that the Mid-Autumn Festival embodies.
The design of “Hỷ Tước Đăng Mai” meticulously recreates the intricate lines and details of the original painting. The deep red, a color synonymous with Eastern celebrations, further amplifies the festive joy, evoking the warmth and togetherness of the full moon season as families gather. The “Hỷ Tước Đăng Mai” collection is not only a wish for a harmonious and prosperous Mid-Autumn Festival but also an invitation from Mia Saigon to explore the hotel’s art collection. Through this collection, Mia Saigon aspires to preserve, honor, and promote the rich cultural heritage of Vietnam in a contemporary light.
Mia Saigon's mooncake brand has gained renown since 2020 for being entirely handcrafted by a team of skilled and experienced pastry chefs. Using carefully selected ingredients and traditional baking techniques, they ensure the highest quality in both appearance and flavor. To provide a broader array of choices for discerning gourmands, in addition to the four traditional flavors of Lotus Seed, Taro, Black Sesame, and Roasted Chicken with Char Siu, Mia Saigon introduces two new and innovative flavors this year: Truffle and Ham, and Oolong Tea and Pine Nut. These novel flavors exemplify a creative twist while upholding the essence of traditional Eastern confectionery.
The Truffle and Ham mooncake exemplifies an innovative fusion of distinctive Western ingredients with traditional Eastern confectionery. The rich and intense aroma of truffle, combined with the robust and savory profile of smoked ham, produces a complex and captivating umami flavor profile. This intricate combination, when paired with the traditional mooncake crust, achieves an unexpectedly harmonious synthesis, demonstrating a sophisticated example of culinary innovation and cultural integration. Meanwhile, the combination of oolong tea and pine nuts offers a refined and sophisticated culinary experience. The refreshing floral notes and slight bitterness of roasted oolong tea are meticulously balanced by the creamy and mildly sweet nuances of pine nuts. This harmonious blend introduces a novel twist while preserving the quintessential essence of traditional Eastern mooncakes.
While the traditional flavors of Lotus Seed, Taro, Black Sesame, and Roasted Chicken with Char Siu may be familiar staples in many mooncake collections, Mia Saigon distinguishes itself by employing superior ingredients and meticulous techniques to deliver a truly refined taste experience. Each mooncake is crafted with a dedication to elegance and sophistication, ensuring that these classic flavors are presented at their finest. Notably, the Roasted Chicken with Char Siu is infused with lime leaves, adding a unique Vietnamese nuance that elevates its aromatic complexity. This commitment to quality and culinary artistry underscores Mia Saigon's devotion to honoring and enhancing the rich heritage of traditional mooncake flavors.
In addition to the unique mooncake flavors, Mia Saigon's gift box includes Thai Nguyen green tea from the Tra Viet brand and candied ginger, creating an exquisite tasting experience. Thai Nguyen green tea is renowned for its refreshing and delicate flavor, offering a sense of tranquility and sophistication. When paired with mooncakes and candied ginger, the tea's flavor becomes even more pronounced and harmonious, balancing the sweetness of the mooncake and the spicy warmth of the ginger. During the Mid-Autumn Festival, savoring mooncakes alongside green tea and candied ginger is not merely a culinary delight but also a way to embrace traditional culture, evoking feelings of warmth and togetherness.
