Celebrating Moon Festival with Moon Cakes

October 2nd, 2009 by Christina

A full moon will appear this Saturday October 3rd. The moon will shine its brightest this season bringing about joys of family gatherings. The celebration of the Mid-Autumn Moon Festival is accompanied by lots and lots of food and of course the giving, receiving and eating of Moon Cakes. The most common of its forms is of lotus bean paste wrapped in a thin layer of baked pastry in round shapes embossed with ancient Chinese emblems such as dragons, calligraphy and even rabbits.
