From Swarovski-studded trunks and retro radios to minimalist tins and sustainable bamboo boxes, KL’s luxury hotels and chocolatiers are reimagining the art of Mid-Autumn gifting. This year’s lineup is as much about how you gift as it is what you gift, with brands transforming the traditional mooncake boxes into artful keepsakes. Whether you’re splurging for a family gathering or indulging in an annual treat, we’ve rounded up the crème de la crème of mooncake collections for 2025—where design, flavour, and storytelling collide under the glow of the full moon.
The Best Mooncakes in KL for Mid-Autumn Festival 2025
The St. Regis Kuala Lumpur
Every year, St. Regis Kuala Lumpur pushes the limits of mooncake gifting, and 2025 is no different. Inspired by the magic of twilight, the luxury hotel unveils a mooncake collection that feels more couture than culinary. Think trunks dressed up in dusky hues and custom details, a visual and gastronomic ode to extravagance. Nestled inside are artisanal mooncakes, bespoke compartments, and the coveted Da Hong Pao tea canister illustrated by Puan Sri Sharon Chua.
The hero piece? The Signature Swarovski® Super Mooncake Trunk, encrusted with over 300 crystals, houses a colossal 6.5-inch mooncake with eight yolks. For something more understated, The Traveller’s Choice debuts this year as a single mooncake accompanied by a porcelain teacup, as simplicity can still be seriously chic. Each trunk also includes a luggage tag in pink, blue, green, or purple, making every piece feel both personal and collectable.

Price: from RM338 nett per trunk
Venchi
Chocolate lovers, this one’s for you. If you’ve ever dreamt of merging Italian Chocogelateria with Chinese tradition, Venchi’s Fase Lunare Collection is your fantasy realised. With packaging inspired by the moon’s celestial phases, this year’s design takes the form of various shapes, including octagonal hampers, moon-shaped tins, and double-layer gift boxes. Packed with both mooncakes and premium chocolates, it’s unapologetically indulgent, and that’s precisely the point.
Shoppers can expect standout flavours from each exquisite box. For instance, the Double Layer Gift Box includes Honey & Walnut, Tea & Biscuits, and Extra Dark Nibs mooncakes, wrapped alongside 16 different kinds of chocolates. The Moonlight Joy and Sweet Blessings hampers are a maximalist’s dream, a limited-edition array of Chocoviar selections, Murrine assortments, and mooncakes designed to impress from the very first unboxing.

Shangri-La Kuala Lumpur
For the traditionalist with a penchant for luxury, Shangri-La’s mooncake range is prosperity in pastry form.

With packaging worthy of a reveal, the boxes double as keepsakes, a reminder of the shared moments that define the Mid-Autumn season.
Within this year’s lineup lies a diverse array of flavours, from favourites like Red Bean with Aged Tangerine Peel and White Lotus with Double Yolk, to inventive snow skin pairings such as Toffee Butterscotch and Musang King Durian.

Gifting has never sounded (or looked) this good.
But that’s not all. The Mixology Kit is equally out-there, pairing two mooncakes with a Veuve Clicquot Brut Mini and a set of bartending tools for the host who throws a spirited celebration.
