Mooncakes are Chinese pastries traditionally eaten during the Mid-Autumn Festival. The festival is for lunar worship and moon watching; moon cakes are regarded as an indispensable delicacy on this occasion. Mooncakes are offered between friends or on family gatherings while celebrating the festival, one of the three most important Chinese festivals.
Typical mooncakes are round or rectangular pastries. A thick filling usually made from lotus seed paste is surrounded by a relatively thin crust and may contain salted egg yolk. Mooncakes are rich, heavy, dense and taste delicious
