Curious about all the intricately decorated desserts that have cropped up over the last few weeks? It’s all part of the Mid-Autumn Festival this weekend on September 30. This festival, also known as the Mooncake Festival
or the Moon Festival, is celebrated by the Chinese and Vietnamese. On
this day, families and friends gather together to carry around beautiful
paper lanterns underneath the moonlight and enjoy different types of
mooncakes.

Mooncakes are a delicious Asian dessert for anyone with a sweet tooth, but watch out because most traditional mooncakes are made with peanut oil nowadays. However, those with peanut allergies can still enjoy the snow skin (or ice skin) and Teochew mooncakes.
