The season for mooncakes is rolling around, with the Mid-Autumn Festival falling on Sep 25, 2026. Most places in Singapore serve baked Cantonese-style and snowskin mooncakes (snag them at early bird prices with these mooncake promos!). But those with more traditional taste buds may prefer a third variant: Teochew mooncakes.

What are Teochew mooncakes?

Originating from Chaozhou, these are characterised by laboriously made spiral-shaped layers (hence also known as “thousand-layered" pastry) that are deep-fried to flaky perfection, often encasing yam or taro paste, and salted egg yolks. The mooncake also traditionally incorporates lard.

There is also the Lao Piah (朥饼) version, which also has delicate flaky layers, but differs with a more disc-like shape.

If you're longing for Teochew mooncakes or planning to delight your family with these treats, here are eight places to find them.
