A moon cake is a delicately-stuffed round cake, symbolizing family reunions and best wishes. It is the most traditional and important food of the Mid-Autumn Festival. The cake is often exchanged as a gift between family and friends during the festival to convey their best wishes. There are all kinds of moon cakes to choose from. What's especially important about moon cakes is their filling. The traditional fillings are sweetened bean paste, Jujube paste and nut paste.
