LOOKING for decadent bites to give family and friends for Christmas? Or sweet treats that are out of the ordinary to share with the clan for Noche Buena on Christmas Eve?
A good option to try: Hong Kong MX Pastries from the No. 1 mooncake brand in Hong Kong. The iconic Hong Kong MX brand, whose mooncakes are known the world over, just recently introduced its famous mooncakes to the Philippine market via pop-up stores. It did so in time for the Mid-Autumn Festival, better known as the Mooncake Festival. Now, it is bringing Hong Kong MX Pastries to Manila in time for Christmas.
The featured pastries are Hearty Butter Pastries, Mille Feuille, Butter Cookies, and Eggrolls. Made with the finest ingredients to ensure high quality products, each of these pastries takes on the essence of the classic baked creations, along with their familiar flavor profiles, before baking them to a perfectly golden crisp.
The Hearty Butter Pastries utilize a double-baking technique that results in caramel notes that make the pastries irresistible to the palate.
The Mille Feuille combines 192 layers of hand-crafted puff pastry on a bed of almonds in such awesome symmetry.
The Butter Cookies come in different forms and shapes.
The flagship product, the Original Eggrolls, uses only French butter, fresh eggs, fine flour and water. No preservatives, margarine, shortening, flavoring or coloring. It is such a good product that it once again won the gold medal in the Annual Monde Selection Quality Award this year.
And, should the Original variants of these featured pastries not be enough to keep one happily satiated, Hong Kong MX has also created Hazelnut, Macadamia, Maple Syrup and Chocolate variants for them. And while these pastries are sleekly packaged in beautifully designed cans per product, there is a Trio offering that combines Hearty Butter Pastries, Mille Feuille, and Butter Cookies.
Boxes of these goodies, with prices ranging from Php800 to Php1,500 and the Snack Pack retailing at Php179.75, are available in Hong Kong MX pop-up stores located at SM Mall of Asia and Lucky Chinatown until January 25, 2020, only. They are also available on Lazada, Grab and GoEat.
