The sole reason I pre-ordered the mooncakes from Awfully Chocolate was because of the wooden box. It was simply too pretty to not to own it. Another reason was that my merchandising work needs a box to hold my tools. So, here comes my box of moon cake.
To be honest, I have the faintness idea about what the mooncake content was, Fyi, I am a Lotus person. I am obsessed with lotus and would try possibly stick with only lotus mooncake at all times. Therefore, when I first cut my Awfully Chocolate mooncake in halves, I was shocked to see its content in brown, chocolate. Actually it makes perfect since firstly 'Mooncake' nowadays is just a generic term for anything roundly shaped, and secondly I purchase this box of 'mooncake' in Awyfully Chocolate.
Awyfully Chocolate's mooncake was more like a chocolate brownie to me. It was extremely sweet and you could not possibly take more than 1/4 a slice at a time. The outer coating of the mooncake was coated with a dark chocolate. It was rather sweet and not exactly possessed but just a bit of the bitter taste that dark chocolate had, The texture of the dark chocolate coating was thick but smooth.
The filling of the mooncake was interesting, I could not quite figure out what were present exactly til now. It possessed a sandy texture, kinda liked the truffle but with a more solid texture. It could be a mixture of refine sugar, coco powder and something else. The filling was just lightly sweet, its the coating who was mainly giving the sweet taste.
Overall, the mooncake was pretty nice to go with coffee either in the morning, lunch or afternoon tea. It was a bit overly much simply having the piece by itself. The filling was interesting which is of my liking but I could only regard this 'mooncake' as chocolate cake.
