Cantonese style red bean paste mooncake

Overview

Cantonese-style red bean paste mooncakes. During the Mid-Autumn Festival, everyone is enthusiastic about making mooncakes, and I am no exception. I make mooncakes every Mid-Autumn Festival. This time I happened to have a French bakery Hakka mooncake mold to try out. The three mooncake molds are super beautiful. After receiving them, I immediately started practicing with one of them. I baked Cantonese-style red bean paste mooncakes. The finished product has clear patterns and a very realistic six-dimensional feel. It is very beautiful!
