Exclusive Mooncakes from Christy Ng x Starbucks Malaysia

In celebration of the upcoming Mid-Autumn festival and the unveiling of its first iteration of its collaboration with local designer, Christy Ng, Starbucks is pleased to present its artfully designed exclusive mooncake sets to be shared with friends and family this year. The Mid-Autumn Festival has always been a celebration of reunion and harmony between families, and this year, even as everyone remains far from their loved ones, they can still remain close at heart with this limited-edition collection.

Available in Midnight Blue & Burgundy Red

The exclusive mooncake sets feature distinctly-designed mini-tote bags by Christy Ng, which draws inspiration from the ancient folklore of the festival but with a modern-day twist. The design of the tote bag illustrates a tale of its own, in the form of the Crane fetching Chang’e, the prevailing protagonist of the Mid-Autumn festival, an Osmanthus flower from earth to quell her nostalgia of family and home as she sits far away on the moon. Bridging the gap of longing and familiarity, like Chang’e, families can now extend their love and gratitude for their loved ones through these specially designed mooncake sets to each other even while apart. 

The two bags from the collection are available in two colorways, the Starbucks® x Christy Ng Exclusive Mooncake Set in Burgundy Red and the Starbucks® x Christy Ng Limited Edition Mooncake Set in Midnight Blue.

Add in a sense of personalized luxury by customising your name on the bag, made complimentary only for this colorway.

Coming in a bold shade of burgundy red, the color symbolizes luck, joy and happiness in the Chinese culture.

This bag also has a layer of water resistant coating and a collapsible top handle. It also has a tumbler strap to secure water tumbler inside the bag.

Being one of the #1 Starbucks fan, of course I went and queue up as early as I can once it's launched! Lucky me, I got what I wanted; Midnight Blue aka the Regal Blue colour. Personally, I felt it's a bit pricey cause it's just eco-friednly canvas but because you can customise, so it's understandable but upon reaching to Christy Ng store to get the free embroidery, I were asked to pay again additional RM10 for shipping fee. Just felt it's super unnecessary as I can always walk-in to the store to pick it up again once it's done. Hence, total damage overall is actually RM168. Anyways, below here are the video I captured! Enjoy!


To further welcome the Mid-Autumn festivities, Starbucks is also introducing a collection of tumblers, water bottles and mugs dedicated to the celebration. Stargazing is taken as the inspiration for the Twinkle Twinkle Little Star Collection, to celebrate the season of reunion featuring floppy bunnies searching the dreamy constellations under a starry night. The story of the bunnies is illustrated throughout the collection, showcasing the adventures of the bunnies as they attempt to reach for the skies, and ends with the bunnies resting on the moon. This bunny-forward collection also features assorted tumblers focused on shapes, colors and treatment to mirror starry scenes for more design options. 


Customers can purchase the Starbucks® x Christy Ng Exclusive Mooncake Sets in stores nationwide, while stocks last. To add in more joy to the festivities, customers can also purchase the Twinkle Twinkle Little Star Collection from as low as RM75. The Twinkle Twinkle Little Star Collection is available at all Starbucks stores in Malaysia from 20th August onwards.
