Not really popular for its mooncakes, we are surprised at the quality of some of its mooncakes. Touted as the bestseller from the restaurant, the Single Yolk Mini Egg Custard Mooncake gets a 1 ½ -chopstick rating. The egg custard filling is quite fragrant but the pastry is a little dry which tastes almost biscuit-like. The Double Yolk Lotus Seed Paste Golden Mooncake is also a favourite which gain a 2 ½ chopstick rating.

The Double Yolk Snow Skin Golden Mooncake gets the thumbs-up from the makanmatas for its smooth filling with a thin pastry of good texture. It has the best snow skin texture among all the snow skins we have tried with a slight aromatic taste of pandan leaves. So, if you like snow skin, this is a "die, die must try" 3-chopstick mooncake for this coming festival.

According to sources from the food & beverage (F & B) industry, the famous flaky skin with yam paste mooncake from Crown Prince Hotel is a number one seller in Singapore. Its annual turnover for mooncakes in this one-month alone is huge enough to make everyone in the F&B industry go green with envy. That's why the Crown Prince Hotel's original flaky skin is celebrating its 10th successful year this year.
Despite the efforts of others to try and introduce their own versions of the flaky pastry, somehow Crown Prince manages to keep its top spot. Besides the usual Teochew-style Yam Paste and White Lotus Paste ( 2-chopstick rating each), a new Pumpkin with Yam Paste is introduced this year to celebrate its 10th year. Biting into this mooncake is like eating Or Nee (famous Teochew dessert of yam paste) itself. The pumpkin and yam paste is moist enough for the dry and flaky pastry. It receives a 3-chopstick rating for its delightful taste.
