Moon Cake with a slice out


Moon Cake with a slice out, originally uploaded by madhatrk.

Ooh, this looks very good!

Photo note:

"It's time for Mid Autumn Festival and moon cakes abound! From a Western point of view -- they are neither moon like nor cake like.
The traditional Moon Cakes, they are not sweet and have two whole eggs (yolks in tact) in them as shown above in the slice. Each time I'm served a moon cake I try a piece...but I have yet to develope a taste for it.

The "New" Moon Cakes, which come in flavors like Green Tea and Mango, these, although still very Eastern in texture and flavor, are easier for me to snack upon.
