Kitsby, a New York-based Asian baking and culinary experience company, is reintroducing its popular Kitsby All Star Mooncake Box Set in anticipation of the upcoming Mid-Autumn Festival. The set, priced at $55, offers four unique mooncake flavors created from the original recipes of Taiwanese-American founder Amy Hsiao.
The All Star Mooncake Box Set includes Black Sesame, Taiwanese Black Tea with Salted Egg Yolk, White Lotus Paste with Salted Egg Yolk, and Green Tea with Azuki Bean (Red Bean) varieties. The ingredients are authentic, most of them stemming from Taiwan. These mooncakes are available until the end of September, celebrating the Mid-Autumn Festival's tradition of honoring the moon and the autumn harvest. Kitsby's mooncakes maintain a traditional preparation method, with handmade dough and a five-day aging process for optimal flavor and moisture absorption.
