moon cake

Mooncakes are traditional pastries eaten during the Chinese Mid-Autumn Festival. They are round like the moon and filled with a sweet filling.

It's a long-standing Chinese tradition for families to gather, admire the moon, and share mooncakes. They are also very popular as gifts.

Mooncakes are a representative food of the Chinese Mid-Autumn Festival and are deeply connected to ancient Chinese culture's moon worship. They are traditionally filled with lotus seed paste, red bean paste, nuts, and other various fillings, and are characterized by beautiful patterns imprinted on their surface.

In modern times, mooncakes with new flavors such as chocolate, ice cream, and durian have emerged, gaining immense popularity among younger generations. Especially in Hong Kong and Singapore, premium mooncakes offered by luxury hotels have become popular gifts during the holiday season.
