Mooncakes are not recommended to be frozen in the refrigerator.

Mooncakes are usually not put in the refrigerator, and it is not a good idea to put them in the refrigerator. This is because the starch in the mooncake ingredients becomes soft and delicate after baking and cooking, just like rice, and will harden after a few days in the refrigerator.

At low temperatures, the flour cooked in the moon cake will precipitate moisture and become aged, making the moon cake hard, taste bad, but also easy to mold. So it's best to keep mooncakes out of the refrigerator. Shelf life of the moon cake can be stored at room temperature, placed in a ventilated, dry place can be. But if the shelf life of the moon cake, it is best not to eat, so as not to cause discomfort. Mooncakes can be refrigerated, but it's just not generally recommended.

In addition to not being recommended for the refrigerator, mooncakes are also not recommended for freezing. Some people use freezing in order to make mooncakes last longer, but this type of storage is more destructive to food and therefore not suitable for mooncakes either.

Because mooncakes contain a lot of water, when they are frozen the water freezes, and when they are defrosted they lose a lot of water and form small holes in the mooncake, which can seriously affect the texture and flavor.
