Yung Kee Preserves Heritage Craftsmanship in Every Mid-Autumn Reunion

The “Mini Moon Quartet” Unveils Four Distinct Flavors Crafted with Elegance

HONG KONG SAR – Media OutReach Newswire – 13 August 2026 – As the Mid-Autumn moon peaks, reunion means more than a gathering over a meal. It is a generational festival memory stirred by timeless flavors. This year, Yung Kee Restaurant continues its theme "Indulging in Moonlit Delights, Embracing the Joy of Reunion" to unveil its 2026 Mid-Autumn mooncake collection. Three enticing new flavors - Mini Matcha Lava Custard, Mini Taro Custard with Coconut Milk, and Mini Red Bean Paste with Mandarin Peel - join the festival-favorite Mini Lava Custard Mooncakes to form the all-new "Mini Moon Quartet". Paired alongside time-honored classics - Lotus Seed Paste Mooncakes with Double Yolks and Mixed Nuts Mooncakes with Chinese Ham, these exquisite combinations bring heartfelt warmth and variety to every festive table.

"Mini Moon Quartet": Savoring Distinctive and Exquisite Flavors

Crafting the perfect mooncake demands meticulous ingredient sourcing, precise heat control, and decades of artisanal skill. This year, Yung Kee presents the Mini Moon Quartet, each recipe thoughtfully tailored to showcase the natural character of its premium ingredients. From subtle tea aromas and creamy milk notes to the comfort of taro and mellow fragrance of aged mandarin peel, each mini mooncake offers a nuanced, multi-layered taste profile.

Mini Matcha Lava Custard Mooncake is made with top‑tier First‑Flush (Ichiban‑cha) tencha from Shiga Prefecture, stone‑milled at low temperature into a fine, vibrant powder. Blended with premium milk and rich cream, it reveals a silky molten center where velvety custard meets bold matcha. Each bite unfolds bold and velvety matcha followed by a gentle milk finish. Vibrant without bitterness, it leaves a soothing, lingering sweetness - striking an elegant balance between rich and refreshing.

Mini Taro Custard with Coconut Milk Mooncake is crafted with authentic Taiwanese taro, prized for its natural aroma and fluffy texture, then slow‑cooked to melt‑in‑your‑mouth perfection. Velvety taro paste encases a silky molten coconut core, delivering a beautifully layered Cantonese dessert that is indulgent yet never heavy.

Among the three new flavors, Mini Red Bean Paste with Mandarin Peel Mooncake embodies authentic traditional charm. Made with 10‑Year Aged Xinhui Mandarin peel and premium Tianjin red beans, slow-cooked into a smooth, velvety paste. The subtle bitter-sweet citrus aroma perfectly cuts through the paste's mellow sweetness. Encased in a traditional syrup crust, rested overnight and baked to golden perfection. A refined Mid‑Autumn indulgence with heritage and harmony in every bite.

Mini Lava Custard Mooncakes return by popular demand. This crowd favorite blends premium New Zealand butter, French cream, and Japanese flour blended with rich salted egg yolks, then infused with creamy custard and coconut milk for a silky lava center. A gentle cut lets the luscious molten heart cascade slowly, blending savory salted egg yolk aroma with buttery creaminess for a satisfying, perfectly balanced flavor.

Timeless Classics: Handcrafted Mastery Preserving Heritage Truths

Though newmooncakeflavors captivate for a moment, the classics glow with lasting brilliance. For generations of Hong Kong families, Lotus Seed Paste Mooncakes with Double Yolks and Mixed Nuts Mooncakes with Chinese Ham have been more than festive delicacies, they are cherished memories anchored to the Mid-Autumn dining table. Yung Kee's Lotus Seed Paste Mooncakes with Double Yolks celebrate tradition and craftsmanship. Made with premium Xiang lotus seeds-praised as "China's finest"-slow‑cooked for over three hours with pure cane sugar, creating a smooth, velvety filling that never turns grainy. This classic relies entirely on precise heat control and technique of master chefs. Hand‑rolled pastry and salted egg yolks complete this timeless creation, bringing comforting richness. Harmonious layers of lotus fragrance, gentle sweetness and savoury yolk notes form an enduring classic.

Behind the seemingly simple Mixed Nuts Mooncakes with Chinese Ham lies a recipe that tests craftsmanship most rigorously. Five selected nuts – walnuts, olive kernels, melon seeds, sesame, and almonds – are blended with Jinhua ham. Master chefs rely on decades of experience to achieve the exact mixing pressure and ingredient proportions, ensuring the filling remains delightfully textured rather than dense. Every bite delivers a crisp nuttiness followed by the savory richness of cured ham, creating a deeply harmonious and unforgettable finish.

HONG KONG SAR - Media OutReach Newswire - 13 August 2026 - FWD Hong Kong ("FWD") has released the results of its latest "Hong Kong Working Population Medical Protection Survey"², revealing a health protection gap among the working population. Among respondents with employer-provided group medical insurance, 71% stated that they primarily rely on this coverage, but only 29% believe their group medical coverage is sufficient to cover actual medical expenses. Only one in six individuals have purchased additional top-up protection plans for their group medical insurance to fill the gap (17%). Apart from insufficient coverage during employment, the survey also found that 74% of respondents worry about bearing high medical expenses alone after retirement, reflecting a general concern among the working population regarding the burden of medical expenses after leaving employment or retiring.

FWD survey: Over 70% of the workforce rely on group medical insurance, yet less than 30% find it sufficient to cover actual medical expenses

Kelvin Yu, Chief Proposition and Healthcare Officer, FWD Hong Kong & Macau, said: "The working population generally relies on group medical insurance provided by employers; however, the coverage may not be sufficient to cover the actual medical expenses of individuals and their families. As healthcare costs rise and career stages evolve, they may face significant protection gaps due to career transitions, leaving employment, or retirement. FWD Hong Kong's newly launched 'EBeyond Medical Insurance Solution' supports any group medical inpatient insurance scheme member^4,7 to top up their medical protection beyond their existing company medical insurance by answering just two simple health questions³. Existing members of FWD's group medical insurance schemes can even apply without health underwriting⁴. Through two flexible plan options, coupled with the first-in-market¹ conversion option, customers can seamlessly continue their medical protection through career transitions and into retirement. We continue to stand by our customer-led approach, commit to addressing customers' needs through innovative product design, redefining 'FWD The Next Standard'."

FWD has launched a new brand campaign, "FWD The Next Standard", to provide solutions for different customer pain points. The "EBeyond Medical Insurance Solution" is designed to address additional protection needs of group medical insurance scheme members, highlighting FWD's innovative protection philosophy of defining new standards.

Group medical coverage serves as first-line protection for the working population; concerns arise over its continuity with career transitions or leaving employment

FWD commissioned a survey of over 1,100 working individuals in Hong Kong aged between 25 and 65 from June to July this year. The survey results indicate that 64% of respondents would prioritise using their company group medical insurance when making medical claims. As the first-line protection for many working individuals, group medical coverage is generally tied to employment; when changing jobs, leaving employment, or retiring, the relevant protection will consequently terminate. Some group medical insurance scheme members purchase individual medical insurance with a deductible option to enhance protection while alleviating the premium burden. However, over half of them expressed that if they lose their group medical coverage in the future, they may not have the confidence to bear the relevant deductible alone (51%).

Furthermore, over 70% of respondents worry about bearing high medical expenses alone after retirement (74%), premiums becoming increasingly expensive as they age (74%), and medical inflation driving up healthcare costs (73%). More than two-thirds of respondents (68%) are concerned that applying for insurance at an older age will involve complicated underwriting procedures or even result in being declined.

Two plan options offering seamless protection continuity to group medical inpatient insurance scheme members, with no health underwriting or simple health underwriting only

FWD has newly launched the "EBeyond Medical Insurance Solution" ("EBeyond"), which is open to Eligible Group Medical Insurance Scheme(s)⁴ members. EBeyond offers two plan options that allow individuals to maintain continuous medical coverage when changing jobs, leaving employment or retiring, while catering to their protection needs at different life stages:

• EBoost Plan: Designed as a top-up to existing group medical insurance coverage during employment. It provides full coverage⁵ for major hospitalisation and surgical expenses (subject to the Annual Benefit Limit, Deductible⁶ and reimbursement percentage), expanding the health protection safety net.
• EBridge Plan: Tailored to serve as first-line protection for customers who lose their group medical coverage after career transitions or retirement. It offers four plan levels covering different ward classes, with optional supplementary major medical benefit ("SMM") for selected plan levels to further boost overall protection.

EBeyond also features the first-in-market¹ "first-dollar conversion option". After the policy has been in-force for two consecutive years from the policy date, the policy owner of an EBoost Plan can exercise this one-off option to convert to an EBridge Plan when their age next birthday is 45, 50, 55, 60 or 65. Without health underwriting of the insured person, the customer can shift the coverage to first-line medical protection to ensure coverage continuity after leaving employment or entering retirement.
