About this dish

It is a cold mooncake with glutinous rice skin, originating from Hong Kong. Snow skin mooncakes are also found in Macau, Mainland China, Taiwan, Singapore, Malaysia and Indonesia. Although snow skin mooncakes are usually made and sold by bakeries, these mooncakes are not baked in ovens like traditional cakes. Unlike traditional mooncakes which are served at room temperature, snow skin mooncakes are typically eaten cold.
