www.chicagotribune.com/dining/ct-food-mid-autumn-festival-mooncakes-chicago-20210920-6znazhy32zbnbiachx23ywma6m-story.htmlMooncakes themselves have changed a bit, too. In addition to snow skin mooncakes, a Hong Kong original made with an exterior similar to mochi and filled with custard, youโll also find ice cream mooncakes, chocolate-filled mooncakes and even cheesecake mooncakes. Considering Starbucks China already has a line of its own (flavors include lava black sesame, light lime cheese, lava custard, citrus jasmine with raspberry, and coffee-flavored mooncakes), itโs probably only a matter of time before my two fall staples join forces and produce a pumpkin spice-flavored variety. While itโs more common to buy mooncakes from Asian grocery stores, there are still bakeries and restaurants making their own. This yearโs Mid-Autumn Festival lands on Tuesday, and restaurants and bakeries have already been preparing, creating and baking mooncakes for weeks.
