Mid-Autumn Festival 2022

Mid Autumn festival is celebrated on September 10 for 2022.  My family celebrates yearly.  I know the time is near when the market has stacks of fancy tins containing delicious mooncakes.

This year I bought a box of Hong Kong MX Mooncakes.  They have a lovely tin this year.  My favorite variety is the white lotus seed paste ones.

I liked the mix of flavors from the mild pastry part and the sweet white lotus seed.  I wouldn’t mind getting these again but I prefer the Wing Wah Mooncakes.

Luckily I was also able to buy a box of Wing Wah White Lotus Seed mooncakes.  Love the mild pastry part and the sweet white lotus seed paste.  Wing Wah mooncakes are my favorite as the flavor of the white lotus seed paste taste better than any other brand I’ve tried.  It has a pure sweet flavor without any distractions while other brands have different flavors that I just don’t like as much.
Wing Wah mooncakes have been in business since 1950 and the first company to use white lotus seed paste for mooncake filling.  Go out and watch the moon and enjoy mooncakes on Saturday!

I like to take photos of beautiful things like rain falling into puddles. Photos were mostly taken on a Fuji XE-2. Starting 9.9.2016 most photos are taken on a Fuji XT-2. Subsequent photos were taken with an Iphone 13 Pro and an Iphone 15 Pro Max.
