The mid-autumn festival or lantern festival falls on this Friday, 29th November 2023. Two days ago, I was salivating at some keto mooncakes I saw on Facebook. It didn’t help that my sister gifted us a box of the famous Ming Yue mooncake from Ipoh, for hubs and missy earlier this month. As they were not keto, I didn’t eat any.
I have not had any mooncakes for a while as the keto ones are usually not cheap and I do not want to pay so much for them. The last time when I had keto mooncakes was in 2021. I thought that this year, I would just look at them from my computer screen but the universe has other plans, well in this case, it’s my sisters’ plan. The mid-autumn festival this year has just became merrier for me.
Right after I saw the keto mooncakes in a Keto group on Facebook, I received a surprise delivery at the office and when I opened the package, I saw this.
A box of keto mooncakes from my two sisters. Awww…what a sweet surprise (pun intended)
It is a box of 4 keto mooncakes – 2 Golden Yolk and 2 Jade Yolk
I unwrapped the keto Jade yolk mooncake right away.
The first bite was simply amazing. In my opinion, it tasted just like the regular mooncake but without the sugar. The crust soft and the ‘lotus paste’ is not dry and has a nice texture. I am not sure how the baker made the paste though. The baker, LF Tan listed the following ingredients:-
I am actually nibbling on the Keto Golden Yolk mooncake while typing out this post. Between the 2 flavours, my favourite is the Golden Yolk. If you want to check out the keto mooncakes by LF Tan, head over to this group in Facebook – LCHF Keto Market and find the baker.
I am so happy that my sisters sent me the keto mooncakes. These guilt-free mooncakes are really out of this world.
Happy Mid Autumn Festival To Those Who Celebrate!
