A local store specialising shiitake chips has created a Valrhona Chocolate Shiitake Snowskin Mooncake.

Edens combines Himalayan Sea Salt Shiitake Chips, lotus seed paste, and Valrhona chocolate for its product.

The mooncake itself is held together by a chocolate snow skin exterior.

In creating the mooncake flavour, Edens explained that they paired two "unlikely ingredients to create something new."
