Mooncakes are traditional snacks/desserts of Mid-Autumn Festival, the second most important festival in China. It is said that there is a moon goddess who makes these cakes, so people call them mooncakes.

People often give mooncakes as gifts when visiting friends and families around Mid-Autumn. There are many flavors of mooncakes on the market. So how do you choose? Some flavors are very common, but some flavors are quite new, and only a few shops are selling them.

Ice Cream

Ice cream mooncake is a new look for traditional Chinese mooncakes. Cooling instead warming to taste, the refreshing taste makes it popular among young people. The crust is often made from chocolate and the fillings can be any flavor of ice cream you like.

Cream Cheese

The main feature of cream cheese mooncakes is the golden and crispy crust with a thick milky flavor. It is not as sweet as other mooncakes. There are many filings, mostly pastes and jams, to meet different customers tastes.

Seafood

Seafood mooncakes are more expensive than other types of traditional mooncakes. As their name suggests, they are filled with seafood like abalone and seaweed. They taste fresh and salty. If you don’t like sweet mooncakes, and want to taste seafood, seafood mooncake is a good idea.
