Finding the Right Mooncake Gift for Every Budget

Mid-Autumn Festival 2026 falls on 25 September, and with collections spanning SGD 20 to SGD 118, choosing the right mooncake gift set can feel like a pleasant problem. This guide cuts through the options by budget, so you can find the right set for every recipient and every occasion — without second-guessing.

All prices below reflect early bird rates, which are available now. Retail prices are noted for reference. Order before September to secure early bird pricing and guarantee availability on the most popular sets.

Under SGD 30 — The Lantern (SGD 22.80 early bird / SGD 32 retail)

The Lantern is August Signature's most accessible gift — a single White Lotus Single Yolk traditional baked mooncake, presented in packaging that makes it feel special despite its accessible price point.

It is the ideal choice when you need to express appreciation without a significant budget: for a neighbour, a casual colleague, a service provider who has made your year easier. At SGD 22.80 early bird, it is the kind of gift that costs less than a coffee date but delivers far more warmth.

It is also perfect for supplementing a larger gift — give the full set to a key client and a Lantern to each member of their team.

SGD 45–50 — Lady Chang and Amber Box of 2 (from SGD 46.80 early bird)

At this tier, two collections offer two-piece gift sets that are polished, flavour-focused, and suitable for most gifting relationships:

• Lady Chang – Traditional Box of 2 (SGD 48.80 early bird / SGD 78 retail): White Lotus Single Yolk and Black Sesame Lava in a cheongsam-inspired box. Two of the most beloved mooncake flavours, beautifully presented.

• Amber – Traditional Box of 2 (SGD 48.80 early bird / SGD 78 retail): The same two classic flavours in the refined Amber Collection packaging.

 

Both are excellent corporate gifts at this price point — elevated enough to impress, focused enough to be appreciated by the full range of recipients. The Lady Chang box, with its cheongsam motif, adds a distinctly Singaporean cultural dimension that many recipients find particularly meaningful.

SGD 50–55 — Amber Tea Set and Pistachio Kunafa (from SGD 50.80 early bird)

Step up slightly and two strong options emerge:

• Amber – Traditional Box of 1 + Tea Set (SGD 52.80 early bird / SGD 88 retail): A single White Lotus Single Yolk mooncake paired with a handcrafted porcelain teapot and teacup and two premium teas. Less about quantity, entirely about the experience. This is the right gift for someone who appreciates thoughtful curation over abundance.

• Amber – Pistachio Kunafa Baked Box of 3 (SGD 52.80 early bird / SGD 88 retail): Three baked Pistachio Kunafa mooncakes — the Dubai chocolate-inspired newcomer of 2026. Bold, conversation-starting, and genuinely delicious.
• Amber – Pistachio Kunafa Teochew Box of 3 (SGD 52.80 early bird / SGD 88 retail): Same Pistachio Kunafa filling in handcrafted Teochew flaky spiral pastry. The more adventurous format for the most adventurous flavour of the season.

SGD 55–65 — Lady Chang Teochew and Peacock Collections (from SGD 58.80 early bird)

This is the most popular gifting bracket, offering the widest variety per box:

• Peacock – Imperial Traditional Classic Box of 4 (SGD 62.80 early bird / SGD 98 retail): Four baked mooncakes plus two tea pairings. The most complete traditional gifting experience at this price.
• Peacock – Imperial Traditional Fusion Box of 4 (SGD 62.80 early bird / SGD 98 retail): Features the new Tiramisu Molten Chocolate and Peach Oolong with Mochi alongside classics. The 2026 choice for recipients who want the familiar and the new.

• Five Senses of Reunion – Box of 4 (SGD 58.80 early bird / SGD 98 retail): White Lotus Single Yolk, Orh Nee Yam with Mochi, Black Sesame Lava, Red Bean with Melon Seeds — four classic flavours in the premium Five Senses presentation.

SGD 118 — The Ultimate: Five Senses of Reunion Full Set (SGD 72.80 early bird / SGD 118 retail)

The Five Senses of Reunion Full Set is in its own category. Limited to 800 sets for 2026, it combines:

• Two handcrafted mooncakes (White Lotus Single Yolk + Black Sesame Lava)
• Handcrafted porcelain teapot and teacup painted with hydrangeas
• Osmanthus scented candle
• Two premium Chinese tea pairings

This is the gift you send to your most important clients, your parents, your closest colleagues. It does not just deliver mooncakes — it delivers an experience: the fragrance of osmanthus, the warmth of porcelain in hand, the ritual of shared tea on a cool September evening.

At SGD 72.80 early bird (retail SGD 118), it is also remarkable value for what is included. Once the 800 sets are gone, there is no restock.
