First, Wuren moon cake
Wuren moon cake is one of the traditional Chinese cakes. It is no exaggeration to say that the Mid-Autumn Festival when I was a child was all five-benevolence. Five kernels are walnuts, almonds, melon seeds, peanuts and sesame seeds. The ingredients are exquisite and rich, and the taste is traditional and delicious. Wuren moon cakes are generally drum-shaped with clear patterns and handwriting printed on them.

Second, egg yolk moon cakes
Egg yolk moon cake is a traditional taste, because its unique fragrance and taste are unforgettable. Egg yolk moon cakes have strict requirements for invagination, and they need to be high-quality salted duck egg yolk. Add chestnut Rong and an orange duck egg yolk in the middle of the fermented dough and wrap it.

Guangdong, as the most delicious province, not only tastes good early, but also has good moon cakes. White lotus seed cake is the representative work of Cantonese moon cake, and the most important thing of this lotus seed cake is to make lotus seed paste. After removing the heart, the lotus seeds are boiled with strong fire and then stir-fried with sugar to make dumplings. The whole process is very complicated and strict.

Fourth, sesame oil and fruit moon cakes
Tianjin people not only like to eat pancake fruit, but also the sesame oil moon cake is a must. Flour is mixed with a lot of sesame oil, which makes the skin of moon cakes not only shiny, but also more crisp and fragrant. The invagination is a mixture of hundreds of fruits, and a lot of sesame oil is added to stir, so that sesame oil can not only add flavor but also make the moon cake look better.
The baked moon cakes can smell a faint scent of sesame oil, and the skin of the moon cakes is shiny. When you bite it, it is a thick scent of sesame oil and passion fruit, which is a bit like Wuren but tastes more crisp.
Five, cloud leg moon cakes

Wise Yunnan people combined ham with moon cakes to create cloud-legged moon cakes. Jinhua ham meat is marinated in honey juice to make stuffing, and the skin is fermented with local wheat flour, which is delicious.
The moon cake with cloud legs looks brownish yellow with a hard skin. It is crispy and fragrant when bitten, salty but not greasy, sweet and salty, and the unique flavor of ham makes people memorable.
Six, fruit moon cakes
Traditional moon cakes are mostly filled with nuts, but there have also been fruit-flavored moon cakes recently. The crust is still fermented with high-gluten flour to make dough invagination and pickled with fruit mixed with syrup. The practice is not innovative, but the appearance of this kind of moon cake is generally small, soft to the touch, full of moisture and short shelf life.
Fruit moon cakes have a strong fruity smell. When you bite them down, the skin is crisp, the invagination is very soft, the entrance is sweet and fragrant, and the fruity taste is very fragrant and greasy, but there is more sugar, so you should not eat more in daily life.
