Mooncakes are a traditional Chinese pastry that are believed to have originated during the Yuan Dynasty (1271–1368). They are typically served during the Mid-Autumn Festival and come in a variety of shapes, sizes, and flavors. The most common and traditional types of mooncake is made with a traditional cookie-like pastry skin that encases various types of sweet filling, such as lotus seed paste, red bean paste, mixed nuts, with yolk.

Mooncakes are steeped in tradition and symbolism, with an emphasis on family reunion and unity. The round shape of the mooncakes represent the full moon, a symbol of family unity. The number of egg yolks often used in the filling also symbolizes the completeness of the family. In addition to being a delicious treat, mooncakes are often used as gifts to show appreciation and affection for family and friends.
