Beihu Mooncakes

Beihu Mooncakes

　　 Beihu Mooncakes are made by Beihu Hotel. They have enjoyed a good reputation since the 1970s. Crafted with unique and meticulous techniques and using premium ingredients — including top-grade walnut kernels, olive kernels, melon seeds, almond kernels, hemp seeds, orange cake, dried tangerine peel, char siu (barbecued pork), ice meat, and cooked glutinous rice flour — these mooncakes are processed with exquisite skill. After baking, they have a golden color, rich texture, and a smooth finish, with the clear imprint of “Beihu Five Nuts” visible on the surface. The crust is thin and the filling is exquisite. When eaten, they are sweet but not greasy, fragrantly delicious, and leave a lingering aftertaste. As a result, they are highly favored by customers and often sell out well before the Mid-Autumn Festival on the 15th of August (lunar calendar).
