Moonlit Moments: Venchi's 2026 Mid-Autumn Collection

Moonlight flows, and reunion finds its moment in Mid-Autumn. As the Jade Rabbit rises with the moon, florals and sweetness intertwine. Founded in 1878 as a premium Italian chocolate and gelato brand, Venchi proudly presents its 2026 Mid-Autumn Festival Limited "Moonstream Collection," backed by artisanal craftsmanship and creative flair. There is no better way to celebrate a reunion than with the emblematic mooncake. Three new mooncake flavours are launched this year, namely Autumn from the Orchard, Dark Almond, and Milky Tea. The trio serves as highlights of various gift boxes, creating diverse combinations with exquisite chocolates to add sweet joy to the festive season.  

Every gift box encapsulates a ceremonial scene of the Mid-Autumn Festival by artfully capturing classic festive elements—from shifting moon phases and traditional lantern latticework to the graceful motion of the Jade Rabbit. Innovative packaging meets vivid illustration against a rich palette of verdant green, floral accents, and golden hues, creating a true visual feast. Rotating silhouettes, detailed lattice patterns, and multi-layered forms evoke a poetic atmosphere filled with symbolic meaning. Inside, reimagined layouts and tailored compartments harmonize with the exterior design, perfectly blending Venchi's Italian aesthetic with the spirit of Mid-Autumn tradition. 

Blending Oriental aesthetics with contemporary refinement, every festive gift of Venchi captures both the poetic spirit of tradition and the elegance of modern craftsmanship. The sentiment of reunion and togetherness during the Mid-Autumn Festival is accentuated.

Featuring a complete collection of mooncake flavors, the Swivel Hamper traces the journey of the lunar phases—from crescent moon to half-moon and full moon. Thoughtfully designed to embody the dual imagery of “the moon’s silhouette traced on the outside, its radiance reflected within”, every opening and closure is a mere ritual, bestowing the beauty and spirit of Mid-Autumn. Three mooncake flavors demonstrate how different concentrations of chocolate blend seamlessly with a variety of fillings. Autumn from the Orchard Mooncake features dark chocolate and orange with a smoky and layered touch. Dark Almond Mooncake takes the creamy and crunchy edge of almond to develop a rich and harmonious chocolate indulgence. Milky Tea Mooncake presents a delicate and lingering flavour of tea-blended milky chocolate with smooth filling.  

Depicting the story of “The Jade Rabbit Gazes at the Moon, surrounded by a Constellation of Stars,” the Octagon Box invites you on a journey to the moon. Opening its lid reveals a mesmerizing view of the festive night sky. A Milky Tea Mooncake takes center stage, while eight distinct Chocoviar chocolates trace its orbit like glowing stars, capturing the essence of Mid-Autumn through a complete Chocoviar tasting experience.

The gift boxes of the Moonstream Collection not only allow us to savor moments of reunion under the moonlight, but also evoke cherished childhood memories of carrying Mid-Autumn lanterns. Recreating the layered interplay of light and shadow alongside the timeless imagery of the Jade Rabbit gazing at the moon, the Luna Rabbit Petite Lantern draws inspiration from the silhouette of traditional Chinese palace lanterns. Its three-tier drawer design reveals a thoughtfully curated selection of one Dark Almond Mooncake and premium chocolates, neatly arranged to unlock endless festive surprises with every layer opened. 

Artfully capturing the scenery of Mid-Autumn into a living Eastern scroll, the Square Box sets a festive mood with a lively four-rabbit tableau. Drawing inspiration from traditional Chinese lattice windows, intricate cut-out patterns frame the Jade Rabbit, the full moon, and the glow of autumn in layered harmony, making it a collectible art piece. Inside, the gift box pairs two mooncake varieties: Autumn from the Orchard and Milky Tea, with an assortment of exquisite chocolates like Chocoviar and Cremino to deliver distinct tasting experiences. Arranged in individual grid compartments for effortless sharing, it beautifully celebrates the spirit of togetherness and reunion. 

Inspired by the imagery of shifting lunar phases and the Jade Rabbit tracing its orbit, the Round Hamper stands as a magnificent tribute to full-moon reunions. Elevated in design, capacity, and heartfelt meaning, this centerpiece gift box fulfills every festive occasion with utmost elegance, making it the ultimate choice for Mid-Autumn celebrations. The grand full-moon box houses five mooncakes across all three signature flavors alongside 16 varieties of Venchi chocolates—including four Chocoviar, three Cremino, and four Dark Granblends to satisfy the most prestigious gifting needs. 

To share the joy of the Mid-Autumn Festival, Venchi’s exquisite luxury gift hampers offer a masterfully curated experience. Bringing together a fine selection of limited-edition creations, the Signature Moonlight Hamper features both the Swivel Hamper Gift Box and the Octagon Gift Box, complemented by classic chocolate bars and gourmet pistachio spread.
