1, different crust
The crust of ordinary moon cakes is made of flour, eggs, syrup, etc., which is usually baked and has a golden appearance. However, the crust of the moon cake with ice skin is made of glutinous rice flour, sticky rice flour, wheat starch, milk, etc., and the appearance is transparent white without baking. It can also be made into color by adding different ingredients, and its sugar and oil content is lower than that of ordinary moon cakes.
2, the taste is different
In terms of taste, ordinary moon cakes tend to be soft, smooth and have a certain greasy feeling, while ice-covered moon cakes tend to be soft and glutinous, and basically have no greasy feeling, because their raw materials and production methods are different.
3. Different storage methods
Usually, ordinary moon cakes are stored at room temperature, so that the taste can be preserved to the maximum extent. If they are put in the refrigerator, the skin of moon cakes will become hard and the taste will become worse. The moon cakes with ice skin must be stored in the refrigerator after sealing, otherwise the crust will become soft and deformed, and even deteriorate.
If you want to ask who tastes better, ice-covered moon cakes or ordinary moon cakes, you can't give an exact answer. Both have their own characteristics and advantages, and everyone's preference for taste is different, so everyone can only get the answer by tasting it themselves.
