So it’s Chinese mid-autumn festival time and with that you have mooncakes. Traditional ones are made of pastry, have an egg inside, and contain about a million calories. I much prefer these mooncakes from Da Ban which are less sweet, and contain more interesting fillings.
The outer skin is made from sticky rice, with a bean paste and something else filling. The photo shows the toffee flavour. The one labelled ‘heart too soft’ was my favourite and contained chocolate sauce, but I ate it before I could take a photo. Yum.
That looks yummy. Many of my Chinese/Japanese friends are also posting mooncakes & dango (for http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tsukimi) for the past few days… makes me hungry 🙂
