Mooncakes are More Than Just Food

Mooncakes are More than Just Food


By Presto
10 September 2024

Mooncakes have a rich history rooted in Chinese mythology, honouring Chang’e, the moon goddess. According to legend, Chang’e’s husband, Hou Yi, created round cakes as a tribute to her after she ascended to the moon. These round cakes, symbolising the moon, became a symbol of completeness and unity in Chinese culture. The Moon Festival, also known as the Mid-Autumn Festival, is a time for family reunions, thanksgiving, and, of course, enjoying these delicious treats.

But mooncakes are more than just food—read on to discover their deeper meaning!

More Than Just a Gift Box

Mooncake gift sets have evolved beyond a simple exchange of sweets. They have become a way to express love, appreciation, and gratitude. Whether shared among family, friends, or business partners, gifting mooncakes is a meaningful gesture that brings people together, making every bite filled with love. It’s a symbol of togetherness, connection, and cherishing those special moments with loved ones.

Traditional vs. Modern Mooncakes

Mooncakes have transformed over time, creating two main categories: traditional and modern.

Traditional Mooncakes are baked and vary based on the region they come from, such as Cantonese, Shanghai, or Hong Kong styles. These golden-brown delights feature rich fillings like lotus paste or red bean, often with salted egg yolk in the centre to symbolise the moon.

Modern Mooncakes add a twist to the classic, featuring varieties like the popular Snow Skin Mooncake. These are no-bake treats served cold, often infused with exciting flavours like matcha, chocolate, or even durian!

The Charm of Traditional Mooncakes

Among traditional mooncakes, Cantonese mooncakes are likely the most well-known. They boast a golden-brown, silky crust and are filled with sweet or savoury options like lotus paste, red bean, or black sesame. Some even contain salted egg yolk for that classic mooncake experience. While sweet fillings dominate the market, savoury versions like ham or roast pig mooncakes can also be found, though they are less common in Malaysia.

A Modern Twist on a Classic

Modern mooncakes open the door to limitless creativity. Snow Skin Mooncakes, which are typically served cold, lead the charge in reinventing this traditional dessert. Other modern variations include matcha, jelly, ice-cream, and even chocolate or alcohol-infused mooncakes! The possibilities are endless, allowing every bite to be a unique and delightful surprise.

Modern or Traditional, Presto Has Them All!

As the Mid-Autumn Festival approaches, why not explore both traditional and modern mooncake varieties on Presto? You can redeem these delicious mooncakes for FREE using your multiple loyalty points from BonusLink, Carrots, KLEAN, Near U, RISE, and VSING. And for even more discounts, add Presto Credits to your redemption. Who knows, you might just get your mooncakes for FREE! Plus, you can earn 3X BonusLink Points for every RM2 spent—what better way to sweeten the deal?

Show Your Patriotism This Merdeka

By Presto
29 August 2024

Merdeka Day, celebrated on the 31 August, marks the day Malaysia gained independence from British colonial rule in 1957. It’s a day filled with pride, unity, and love for our country. For Malaysians, Merdeka is more than just a public holiday—it’s a time to reflect on our nation’s history, celebrate our diverse cultures, and express our patriotism.

As we approach this significant day, let’s explore meaningful ways to show your love for Malaysia this Merdeka month.

Fly the Jalur Gemilang

One of the most visible and impactful ways to show your patriotism is by flying the Jalur Gemilang, our national flag. Whether at home, in your car, or at your workplace, proudly displaying the flag is a simple yet powerful gesture that symbolizes unity and love for our nation. By raising the Jalur Gemilang, you’re not just participating in a tradition—you’re contributing to the vibrant spirit of Merdeka, reminding everyone around you of the values we share as Malaysians.

Participate in Community Events

Merdeka month is packed with events that bring people together to celebrate our shared heritage and national pride. From parades and cultural performances to charity drives and community clean-up efforts, there are countless ways to get involved. Participating in these events is a fantastic way to connect with fellow Malaysians, learn more about our diverse cultures, and show your dedication to building a stronger, more united Malaysia.

Educate Yourself and Others

Understanding our nation’s history and the struggles our forefathers faced is key to appreciating the significance of Merdeka. Take this month as an opportunity to educate yourself and others about Malaysia’s journey to independence. You can read books, watch documentaries, or even visit museums dedicated to our national history. Sharing this knowledge with friends, family, and the younger generation not only keeps our history alive but also instills a deeper sense of pride and responsibility towards our country.

Support Local Products on Presto

Another impactful way to show your patriotism is by supporting local businesses. By choosing to buy locally-made products, you’re directly contributing to the growth and sustainability of our economy. If you’re looking to shop this Merdeka month, you’re in luck because Presto is offering amazing deals on a wide range of local products from Samel and Noto Honey House!

Essential Hair Care Tips for Hijabis

Essential Hair Care Tips for Hijabis

By Presto
16 August 2024

Wearing the hijab is a cherished and lifelong commitment for many Muslim women. It’s a symbol of modesty and devotion, but as much as we love our hijabs, they can present a unique set of hair care challenges. With the hijab covering our hair for extended periods, there’s less ventilation, leading to increased sweat, dampness, and sometimes even unpleasant odors.

But don’t worry—these issues can be easily managed with the right care and attention. Read on to discover essential hair care tips for maintaining healthy and beautiful hair beneath your hijab.

Dry Your Hair Using a Hairdryer

After washing, it’s crucial to dry your hair thoroughly before putting on your hijab. Damp hair under a hijab can lead to fungal infections, a musty odor, and weakened hair shafts, causing breakage. While air drying is ideal, if you’re in a rush or have thick hair that takes longer to dry, a hairdryer is your best friend. Use it on a low heat setting to avoid heat damage, and make sure your hair is completely dry before wrapping it up.

Tie Your Hair Looser

Wearing your hair in a tight bun or ponytail under your hijab might seem like a neat and practical option, but it can actually do more harm than good. Tight hairstyles can cause tension on the scalp, leading to traction alopecia—a condition where hair is gradually pulled out due to constant strain. Instead, opt for a looser hairstyle that doesn’t stress on your hair follicles. Remember, the key is to give your scalp a break and let your hair breathe whenever possible.

Use the Right Hair Products

Using the right hair care products is essential for maintaining healthy hair, especially when wearing a hijab. Choose products that cater to your specific hair type and concerns. For example, if you struggle with an oily scalp, look for a lightweight, clarifying shampoo. If you experience dryness, a moisturizing conditioner or leave-in treatment can work wonders. And don’t forget about scalp care! A gentle scalp scrub or tonic can help remove buildup and keep your scalp healthy.

For all your hair care needs, explore Kérastase hair care products available on Presto. Not only will you find quality products tailored to your hair type, but you can also redeem them for FREE using your your loyalty points from BonusLink, Carrots, KLEAN, Near U, RISE, and VSING!

Looking for more exciting deals? Check out the Kérastase luxury professional hair care collection on Presto!

Caring for your hair under the hijab doesn’t have to be complicated. With these simple tips—regular washing, proper drying, looser hairstyles, and the right products—you can maintain beautiful, healthy hair while embracing your hijab with confidence. Remember, your hair is your crown, even if it’s hidden, so give it the care it deserves. Happy styling!

Why Buying Local is Important

Why Buying Local is Important

By Presto
22 August 2024

As we celebrate Merdeka month, one of the best ways to show our patriotism is by supporting local products. When you buy local, you’re not just getting great products—you’re also investing in your community, the environment, and the country as a whole. By choosing to support local businesses, you help strengthen the economy, reduce environmental impact, and foster a sense of unity among Malaysians.

Read on to discover why buying local is important and how it can benefit you and those around you.

Enjoy Better Product Quality

When it comes to quality, local products often stand out. Local food items, for example, are often fresher and more nutritious because they don’t have to endure the long journeys and extended storage periods that imported goods face. When food spends days in transit and packaging, it can lose its flavour, nutritional value, and freshness. Whether it’s fresh fruits, vegetables, or artisanal goods, buying local ensures you’re getting the best possible quality for your money.

Know Your Sources

Beyond quality, another advantage of buying local is the transparency it offers. When you purchase products made in your community, you’re more likely to know where they come from and what processes were involved in their creation. By buying local, you can often trace the food back to the farm or producer, ensuring that what you’re consuming is safe, ethical, and of high quality. This transparency allows you to make informed decisions about what you’re putting on your plate and into your body, ensuring that what you’re consuming is safe, ethical, and of high quality.

Build Stronger Connections in Your Community

By purchasing from local farmers, artisans, and small businesses, you’re closing the gap between the consumer and the producer. This direct relationship fosters a sense of trust and mutual respect, as you get to know the people behind the products you love. Shopping becomes a more personal and meaningful experience, as you’re not just buying a product—you’re supporting your neighbour’s livelihood and contributing to the well-being of your community.

Discover Exclusive Deals on Local Products at Presto

Supporting local businesses doesn’t just feel good—it can also save you money. At Presto, we’re offering amazing deals on a wide range of local products, making it easier than ever to shop local and save. Plus, you can earn 3X BonusLink Points for every RM2 spent while redeeming these local goodies for FREE using your loyalty points from BonusLink, Carrots, KLEAN, Near U, RISE, and VSING.
