Below is a little story about the mooncake 🙂

Mooncake is a traditional Chinese dessert or tea cake typically eaten during the Mid-Autumn Festival, Zhōngqiū Jié (中秋節). It is celebrated on the 15th day of the 8th month on lunar calendar (八月十五).

The Mid-Autumn festival is for lunar worship and moon watching, when mooncakes are regarded as an indispensable delicacy. Mooncakes are offered between friends or on family gatherings while celebrating the festival. The Mid-Autumn Festival is one of the four most important Chinese festivals.
