BLOOM Mooncakes + DIY Terrarium Kit by The Westin KL

Every year, hotels and retailers would get creative and come up with fantastic box designs to go with their mooncakes. The Westin Kuala Lumpur's innovative BLOOM mooncake gift box is by far my favorite this year as it doubles up as a storage unit as well as an integrated potting container. The box has a clear top which cleverly inverts into a potting tray. It even comes with a DIY terrarium kit, with user-friendly planting instructions. Best mooncake box design ever!

There are 8 traditional baked mooncake flavours to choose from - lotus paste with single yolk, assorted nuts, low sugar plain white lotus paste, pandan lotus, low sugar plain white lotus single yolk, Pearl of Prosperity, pure red bean paste and green tea. You can purchase them in a box of two (RM75) or box of four (RM110). 

Nice wood finish box, which can be used as a storage unit

The mooncakes are made using only the finest ingredients. My favorite this year is the Pearl of Prosperity, which is pandan lotus paste with single yolk. The mooncakes have a smooth texture and are not too sweet. We also love the Five Sen5es Assoted Nuts Mixture, chockfull of nutty goodness.

The DIY Terrarium Kit comes with all the necessary ingredients such as hydro balls, activated carbon, sphagnum moss, UGC mix potting soil, pebbles, and Japanese pearl grass seeds. Hubby and I had a fun morning putting our terrarium together, and shooting videos for our YouTube. The seeds are expected to sprout in one week, can't wait!
