The Mid-Autumn Festival is a time of joy, reunion, and of course, mooncakes! These traditional treats are known for their rich flavours and dense fillings, which can vary from sweet to savoury. To complement its intense flavour, tea is the ideal companion.

 

The subtle flavours and aromas of tea cleanse the palate, enhancing the taste of mooncakes without overpowering them. Whether you’re enjoying a sweet lotus paste mooncake or a savoury one filled with mixed nuts, the right tea pairing can elevate your high tea experience.

 

This year, SHATEC Orchard is thrilled to introduce an exclusive Tea Pairing Mooncake Workshop, a unique experience that combines the art of mooncake making with the elegance of tea appreciation. In collaboration with Gifel Tea and Hao Food SG, the authorised distributor of White Rabbit Singapore, SHATEC Orchard is delighted to offer a tea appreciation session where you’ll discover the subtle art of pairing teas with various mooncake flavours.

 

Under the expert guidance of our chef, you will enhance your baking skills as you learn to match the delicate notes of premium teas with the rich taste of your handmade snowskin mooncakes. From perfecting the snowskin mooncake dough to achieving the desired colours, this hands-on workshop will cover it all.

 

Whether you’re an experienced baker or a curious beginner, our workshop is perfect for anyone looking to immerse themselves in the traditions of the Mid-Autumn Festival while picking up a new skill. You’ll walk away with a deeper understanding of the art of tea pairing, a newfound appreciation for mooncake making, and a set of skills that you can showcase at your next festive gathering.
