Mid Autumn Festival and Moon Cakes, Part II

People are more concerned about fat and sugar nowadays than in the past, even for special treats for a festival.

Found on the net are pictures of some new style moon cakes. These are the fancy pastries created by bakeries during the Mid Autumn Festival. They are advertised as moon cakes, but they don't really have the feel of the traditional moon cakes. The chance is that these are less sugar, less fat and less preservative than the Canton style moon cakes as these new style pastries have shorter shelf life.
