Similarly, successful Artiste Networks Artiste Jeanette Aw, is not only a permanent fixture in Mediacorp's annual Most Popular Female Artiste Award but is also recognized for her acting skills and hard work. With the launch of the Chilled & Frozen range, New Moon is extending from the canned food that it is synonymous with to a range of fresh food, thus the endorsement of fresh face, Jeanette can only be said to be a perfect match.
Due to her hectic schedule, Jeanette is hardly able to eat the home-cooked food that she loves. New Moon Chilled & Frozen products are convenient, easy-to-prepare and delicious thus ensuring that she can enjoy the goodness of home-cooked food effortlessly.
