Salted Egg yolk and wintermelon pastry
2019-09-17  68 瀏覽
Normally these square pastry blocks are filled with pineapple but at Wingwah they have ones filled with wintermelon.
I got had salted eggyolk with wintermelon.
I really liked it because it wasn't too sweet and the saltiness was good.
The taste has improved from last year because the butter in the pastry was not too overwhelming.
Again,  the prices are marked up and discounted because last year it was priced at HKD17 and marked down to HKD9 and it was the same this year so I am glad the media has done an investigation into this issue!

I don't know if the custard mooncake is new but tried it as I have never tried a custard mooncake by WW.

It had a pleasant smell with lots of vibrant yellow oil coming off it.

Microwaved it for 30 seconds prior eating.
The taste was pretty good as the custard was strong but a bit too sweet.
The thing that let it down was the filling as it was not runny!!

Thankfully you can buy them individually to try if you're curious!

It is interesting to see Traditional Chinese bakeries sell their own teas as well as pastries.
Apart from Wing Wah, Kee Wah has teas too.
Tried the Iron Buddha which came packaged in a nice silver round tin.

The dried tea leaves inside were impressive because they were whole leaves and not brittle tea dust, hence the strong fragrant taste of Iron Buddha.

I was surprised to see that they had Orange flavoured mochi at Wing Wah Bakery because the style at Wing Wah is quite traditional.
There were two flavours orange or red bean.

Orange mochi:
The mochi was covered in coconut and there was orange filling encased with a layer of white bean paste.
The taste reminded me of the snowy mooncakes that they sell during Mid Autumn festival because of the white bean paste.
I would have preferred it if the orange flavour was more refreshing because the orange peel taste was more prominent.

I got these phoenix rolls because they were cheese flavoured and not the usual boring desiccated coconut or meat floss.

★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★
Phoenix rolls filled with cheese:
Inside the box, there were six pieces.
When I opened the box, the smell of buttery cheese was quite strong.
However when you eat it, it still tastes the same as the usual ones with a hint of cheese.

Walked past and saw the flaky pastry cakes which had dried oyster so I decided to get it.
Initially I did not know they were the same style as "Wife cakes" made with wintermelon.
★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★
Flaky pastry with BBQ Pork and dried oyster HKd6.6:

The pastry was extremely flaky when I bit into it however it did not taste as nice as I expected because there was quite a lot of wintermelon in it and fatty bits.

It was really sweet as well and I could not taste any BBQ pork or dried oysters.
If it was a real puff pastry with BBQ pork and dried oysters it would taste really nice.

★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★
Egg custard and diced egg yolk:

This was really nice and the egg yolk was not that salty, the overall texture was slightly starchy.
★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★
Bird's nest in custard with sweet potato and bean paste:

I was expecting this to taste nice but the smell was really artificial.
It smelt like playdoh.
I was not expecting a fair amount of bird's nest but it could not be seen in the filling with the naked eye.
★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★
In conclusion the Cherry flavour and Pandan flavour tastes the best.

Apple and pandan flavoured bean paste mooncake HKD30:

The taste of the apple was quite refreshing but not strong enough.
If the apple could have been more tart then it would balance out the sweetness of the mung beans.
★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★
Black glutinous rice with red wine cherry and mung bean paste mooncake:

This flavour tasted quite nice because the cherry flavour was strong and on the purple dough skin you can see finely grounded glutinous rice in it.
★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★
Other flavours I should get next:
Custard and egg yolk
Custard, purple potato and birds nest
