SNOW SKIN MOON CAKE 冰皮月饼

Mid-Autumn Festival became an official celebration in China during the Tang Dynasty (618-907 CE) but there isn't one single answer to the question of when and how the Mid-Autumn Festival began.

Mooncake, a rich pastry typically filled with sweet-bean or lotus-seed paste, are traditionally eaten during the festival.

Snow skin mooncakes are a non baked mooncake developed by a bakery in Hong Kong.  The snow skin mooncake is similar to mochi ice cream or yukimi daifuku, as both have glutinous rice crusts and have to be kept frozen and typically eaten cold.
