These ice-cream mooncakes come with a brand new pastry skin recipe with an improved texture, celebrating some of Singapore’s most popular local flavours - Crunchy Milo, Lychee Dreams, Yummy Yam (all 3 are new), Strawberry Fields Forever, as well as the all-time-favorites Durian Royale and Sticky Chewy Chocolate!
Interestingly, the moon gems are encased in a beautiful lantern box complete with LED lights and batteries. Time for a new lantern this Mid-Autumn festival? ;)
When asked to pick 4 flavours, I chose the newest three as well as my favourite Durian Royale!

Lychee Dreams - made up of the translucent white flesh of lychee blended with Swensen’s Lychee ice-cream, this was pretty refreshing but a little too sweet for me.

Durian Royale - durian lovers will definitely loooove this mooncake filled with the creamy flavour of D24 durian ice cream. Still on the top of my list! :D

Crunchy Milo - this has a malty taste of Milo and is filled with marshmallows and crunchy almonds. I felt like I was drinking Milo milkshake hahaha because it was really very rich!

Yummy Yam - Swensen’s signature Yam ice-cream has returned by popular demand in the form of their moon gems. It is said to have you 'reminiscing of the good old days' with its aroma and sweet taste. I'm not a fan of anything yam but I chose this flavour for my parents to try.
