Mid-Autumn Festival is one of those occasions when mooncakes start appearing everywhere in Singapore, but every year there are always a few flavours that stand out from the usual selection. For 2026, Yakiniku LIKE is bringing a rather interesting combination to the table with its Tokachi Red Bean Lava Matcha Mooncakes, and there is an early bird deal worth checking out if matcha and traditional mooncake flavours are both on the list of favourites.
From 20 August to 9 September 2026, shoppers can enjoy an Early Bird Special of $30.80 for a box of four mooncakes, compared with the usual price of $38.00. That works out to a saving of $7.20 per box, making it a considerably more attractive option for anyone planning to buy mooncakes for family, friends, colleagues or simply to enjoy at home.
The promotion was announced by Yakiniku LIKE on 20 August 2026, with the offer running until 9 September 2026. The mooncakes are made in Hong Kong by Arome Bakery, giving this particular Mid-Autumn offering an added point of interest for those who enjoy trying seasonal treats from different bakeries and brands.
A Matcha Mooncake With Something Different Inside
What makes these mooncakes worth a closer look is the combination of flavours. Instead of going down the more familiar route of lotus paste or salted egg yolk, the Tokachi Red Bean Lava Matcha Mooncakes bring together rich red bean filling, a molten matcha centre and Kyoto Uji Matcha.
That combination should appeal especially to matcha fans who enjoy a stronger tea flavour rather than an overly sweet dessert.
The red bean filling gives the mooncake a familiar Japanese-inspired sweetness, while the matcha centre adds a richer and more distinctive element. The use of Kyoto Uji Matcha also gives the flavour profile a more fragrant tea character.
For anyone who has already tried plenty of traditional mooncakes over the years, this could be a nice change of pace. It still has the festive appeal associated with Mid-Autumn Festival, but the matcha and red bean combination makes it feel a little more contemporary.
Early Bird Price Brings the Cost Down
Price is probably the biggest reason to consider buying these mooncakes sooner rather than later.
The regular price is $38.00 per box of four, but the Early Bird Special brings it down to $30.80. That means shoppers save $7.20, or around 19% off the usual price.
At the promotional price, each mooncake works out to approximately $7.70 each when the box contains four.
That is worth keeping in mind for those who need several boxes. A single box could be suitable for a small family gathering or personal enjoyment, while several boxes could also be picked up as gifts for relatives, friends or colleagues.
For example, buying two boxes at the Early Bird price would cost $61.60, instead of $76.00 at the usual price. That gives a total saving of $14.40. Of course, shoppers should always check the latest availability and applicable terms before making a purchase.
Why Buy Mooncakes Early?
There is a simple reason why early bird mooncake promotions are worth paying attention to: popular seasonal flavours can disappear surprisingly quickly.
Yakiniku LIKE has specifically indicated that the mooncakes are available in limited quantities, so waiting until the final few days of the promotion could be risky if the flavour becomes popular.
Buying earlier also makes sense for people who have several gifts to prepare. Instead of leaving everything until the Mid-Autumn Festival period gets busy, picking up the boxes during the Early Bird period can take one item off the shopping list.
It can also be useful for office gifting. A box of four is a manageable size for sharing, and the matcha-focused flavour gives colleagues something a little different from the standard mooncakes that tend to dominate the festive season.
A Good Pick For Matcha Fans
Matcha has become a familiar flavour across Singapore’s dessert scene, but it can sometimes be difficult to find a festive mooncake that balances matcha with other ingredients properly.
This Yakiniku LIKE offering takes a different approach by combining matcha with red bean rather than making the mooncake entirely about sweetness.
The molten matcha centre is arguably the feature that makes the mooncakes particularly interesting. It adds a different texture to the filling and gives the mooncake more of a dessert-style character.
Those who enjoy Japanese-inspired desserts may therefore want to put this promotion on their Mid-Autumn shopping list.
Where Can Shoppers Get Them?
Yakiniku LIKE has multiple outlets around Singapore, including locations at shopping centres such as 313@somerset, AMK Hub, Bukit Panjang Plaza, Clementi Mall, Compass One, Pasir Ris Mall, PLQ Mall, Suntec City, Tampines 1, The Cathay, VivoCity and Westgate.
However, shoppers should check directly with Yakiniku LIKE regarding the participating outlet for the mooncake promotion before making a special trip, as availability may differ between locations.
The promotion information provided does not state a specific redemption or collection time for the mooncakes, so it is best to confirm the outlet’s operating hours and stock availability before heading down.
Why This Deal Is Worth Considering
There are plenty of reasons to look at this offer beyond simply getting a discount.
First, the saving is straightforward. The price drops from $38.00 to $30.80, giving shoppers $7.20 back in their pocket.
Second, the flavour is not the most ordinary mooncake combination. The Tokachi red bean, molten matcha centre and Kyoto Uji Matcha give it a Japanese-inspired profile that could be particularly appealing to matcha lovers.
Third, the Early Bird period gives shoppers a chance to sort out their Mid-Autumn gifts ahead of the busiest part of the season.
And finally, the limited quantity warning makes this more of a buy-early opportunity rather than something that should be left until the last minute.
For those who are already planning to buy mooncakes in the coming weeks, paying $30.80 for four during the Early Bird period makes more sense than waiting and potentially paying the usual $38.00 later.
Final Thoughts
Mid-Autumn Festival shopping does not always have to mean choosing the same traditional flavours every year. Sometimes, the fun is in finding something that puts a new spin on a familiar festive treat.
Yakiniku LIKE’s Tokachi Red Bean Lava Matcha Mooncakes certainly fall into that category. With Hong Kong-made mooncakes from Arome Bakery, red bean filling, a molten matcha centre and Kyoto Uji Matcha, there is plenty here to attract anyone who enjoys matcha-based desserts.
The $30.80 Early Bird price for four, down from $38.00, makes the offer even more tempting. With the promotion running from 20 August to 9 September 2026 and limited quantities available, interested shoppers should consider getting their boxes earlier rather than assuming they will still be available towards the end of the promotion.
For matcha lovers, Mid-Autumn Festival shoppers and anyone looking for a slightly different mooncake gift this year, this is a seasonal deal worth keeping on the radar.
