Craft, Quality & The “回油” Tasting Tip
Old Seng Choong is known for meticulous craftsmanship and premium ingredients. Each mooncake features lower-sugar unbleached lotus paste in a thin pastry shell.
For best flavour, let the mooncakes rest 5–7 days (回油). The taste deepens. The pastry turns silky. Patience is delicious.
