Mid-Autumn catch-ups come with a lot of good food. So, for some of us, one of the challenges is finding a mooncake that tastes both special and not overwhelmingly sweet. But, low sugar mooncakes: Is there even such a thing?
Mid-Autumn Festival falls on 25 September this 2026, and we’re already seeing an array of tasty mooncakes with traditional and modern flavours. Now, if you’re looking for healthier options this mooncake season, you’re in luck! We’ve compiled a list of places to get the best low sugar mooncakes in Singapore! From mooncakes with nuts to savoury flavours, you can indulge in yummy mooncakes without having to chiong to gym classes post-festival.
For starters, mooncakes are high in calories, thanks to the amount of oil and sugar that goes into these sweet treats. That said, lower-sugar mooncakes can be a good option if you prefer your mooncakes less sweet. However, take note that they’re not automatically sugar-free or suitable for every diet. Depending on the recipe, they can still contain carbohydrates, fats and calories from ingredients such as lotus seed paste, pastry, nuts and salted egg yolks.
So, if your main goal is to manage your sugar intake, start with the wording on the box. Make sure to check the ingredient list and nutrition information, and if available, it’s also useful to take a look at the serving size, total carbohydrate and sugar content rather than relying on the front-of-pack claim alone. Before ordering, check whether the brand uses terms like the following, as they don’t always mean the same thing:
If you’re managing your blood sugar or have specific dietary concerns, we highly suggest speaking with a healthcare professional about what works for you. You can also refer to HealthHub’s guide to healthy eating for managing diabetes for general dietary guidance. For everyone else, a lower-sugar mooncake can simply be a more balanced way to enjoy the flavours of Mid-Autumn without the sweetness feeling too heavy!
Man Fu Yuan is a household name when it comes to the best low-sugar mooncakes in Singapore. They keep the traditional mooncake ritual intact with their low-sugar baked series that includes familiar white and red lotus seed paste options with single or double yolks, plus a nutty white lotus variation with macadamias and pumpkin seeds. If you want something a little different, they also offer plant-based meat mooncakes with assorted nuts. They still have that authentic mooncake taste that we all know and love, but with fewer calories and less worry, so you can indulge in some tasty treats this Mid-Autumn 2026!
Price: From $62.60 per box
Order period: Until 25 Sep

If you’re loyal to a proper white lotus mooncake, The Fullerton Hotel Singapore is the best place to start. Here’s the thing: while lotus paste is the OG mooncake filling, it’s also one of the flavours that contains the highest amount of calories. According to CNA’s report citing the Singapore Health Promotion Board’s nutrient analysis , an average 192g baked lotus mooncake with two egg yolks contains about 890 calories (that’s almost the same as four bowls of rice)!
The Fullerton Hotel Singapore offers a healthier version of this classic flavour with their low-sugar white lotus range. The selection comes in pumpkin seed, single-yolk and double-yolk versions, so you can keep things classic or add a little crunch. The lotus paste is smooth and the salted yolk offers that familiar savoury contrast. Their mooncakes are also halal-certified, so it’s handy when you are hosting a broader group.
Price: From $63.07 per box
Order period: Online orders until 22 Sep; collection and delivery until 25 Sep
Where to buy: The Fullerton Hotel Singapore Website (collection at the South Courtyard collection counter), Shopee SG
Here’s another fan favourite: The white lotus snowskin mooncake! Peach Garden specialises in mooncakes with traditional and modern flavours, so it comes as no surprise that they offer reduced sugar mooncakes that taste just as rich and decadent as their sweeter counterparts. Their Low Sugar Mini White Lotus Snowskin Mooncake with Macadamia is a bestseller for a reason, as the light yet chewy snowskin envelops melt-in-your-mouth lotus paste and creamy macadamia nuts. Pair it with some unique tea flavours and you’ll have a healthy and refreshing afternoon snack!

Crowne Plaza Changi Airport’s Lunar Voyages collection gives the traditional low-sugar mooncake a travel-inspired update.

The real conversation starter is the box. The lid has rotating discs showing moon phases and global time zones, making it a creative pick for frequent travellers or a loved one who appreciates a useful keepsake.

Hong Kong MX’s mooncake sets are among the most coveted during Mid-Autumn. I even try to snag a set or two every year! It’s a tried-and-tested option when you want something recognisable, easy to portion and not too elaborate. Their low-sugar lotus seed paste mooncakes come with egg yolk, while their mini assorted box is particularly handy for smaller households or office pantry sharing. The brand is known for a neater, more compact style of mooncake, so the portions don’t feel excessive after a full dinner. Trust me when I say that you won’t miss the sugar with these less-sugar mooncakes from Hong Kong MX.

For larger gatherings, they also have the Ethereal Chest for sharing at the family table.

Love a traditional mooncake that feels extra special? Jiang-Nan Chun‘s reduced-sugar baked selections keep the focus on fine white lotus seed paste and premium nuts, with yolk options for those who want a more savoury centre. The flavours are restrained and elegant rather than overly rich, so it suits long dinners where dessert arrives after the main courses. It’s definitely a pricier pick, but it’s one that feels deliberate and not generic.

For the most specialised healthy mooncake Singapore option, go straight to Delcie’s Desserts. Their 2026 collection is made with wholemeal flour and offers cane-sugar-free, eggless and dairy-free choices, including pandan lotus with salted mung bean yolk and white lotus with black sesame yolk. They also have gluten-free red bean mini mooncakes for people with more specific dietary needs. These are still treats, of course, but the clear dietary information makes choosing much less stressful. This is especially my go-to for gatherings when someone has to sit out the dessert round.

Xin Cuisine keeps things reassuringly traditional with its baked low-sugar white lotus seed paste mooncakes. You can choose from no yolk, single yolk or double yolk, so it’s easy to match the box to your household’s usual preferences. The double-yolk version is the bestseller, which makes sense if you love that savoury burst against a smooth lotus filling. Their 2026 collection is called “Never Just a Mooncake.” But for me, the appeal is actually the lack of fuss: proper flavours, a polished box and a familiar range of classics.
Price: From $84 per box
Order period: Until 21 Sep (collection and delivery from 25 Aug to 24 Sep)

Hotel Indigo Singapore Katong’s collection is not specifically labelled low sugar.

The four-piece Premium Series includes red dates with longan, black sesame with peanut butter and both single- and double-yolk white lotus mooncakes with melon seeds. All of their mooncakes are halal-certified, and the flavours are more contemporary than our other top picks, so this is a good choice if you want an alternative to a fully traditional box. The Katong-inspired pink or blue display boxes can also be reused for jewellery, keepsakes or small collectibles.
