The mooncake season in Bangkok is just around the corner, and many brands and big-name hotels are starting to roll out their respective mooncake collections for believers wishing to reunite over the Mid-Autumn Festival staple or give them as gifts of appreciation. And while the mooncake game in Bangkok is already on-point, the mooncake box game is only beginning to heat up.
This year, luxury hotel Kimpton Maa-Lai Bangkok is shaking up the market with the launch of out-of-this-world packaging for its equally impressive mooncake collection. And believe us, this unique gift box is really hard to beat. Moon-shaped and lit up by LED lights, it doubles as an Instagram-worthy serving tray and, later, a lamp that you can place next to your bed.
The container itself comes in the form of a sphere, its exterior reminiscent of the surface of the moon, and is housed in a transparent orange-colored box that rests on a wooden stand. Each “moon” encases a collection of cakes in four flavors: durian, Thai tea, mixed nuts, and cappuccino walnut.
It’s definitely ideal for impressing your family, friends, business partners or loved ones, but it’s also a great decorative addition to your home.
Kimpton Maa-Lai Bangkok’s mooncake box is available for pre-order at the special price of B1,888 net until the end of July. The price will be set at B2,288 after the pre-sale period. Boxes will be ready for pick-up starting 9 August. Order now by giving the hotel a call at 020569999, dropping an email to taste.kimptonmaalai@ihg.com, or clicking http://bit.ly/PRKimptonEN.
