Where To Get Low-Sugar Mooncakes Mum Would Approve Of
"Not too sweet" is the ultimate Asian dessert compliment
By Ho Guo Xiong and Michelle Lee -Â
Mooncakes are a treat many of us look forward to enjoying once a year during the Mid-Autumn Festival, which falls on Sep 25, 2026. Whether you enjoy the traditional baked version or the flavours that accompany the softer snowskin type, it’s hard to resist these morsels.
Of course, we know mooncakes aren't that great health-wise (*cue the mooncake calorie stats that flood our socials each year*). Each of them is densely packed with sugar and fats, with not too much to offer in terms of nutrients. And while we don’t have the sugar content of these mooncakes, these are claimed to be “low sugar” or “reduced sugar”, or are made without cane sugar, if you’re looking to feel a little less guilty. That said, most mooncakes are still calorie bombs and high in fat, so enjoy them in moderation!
