STORY BEHIND THE RECIPE<\/span><\/h1>\n

Snowskin mooncake, or ‘Bing Pi’ (Ice Skin) in Mandarin, got its name from its distinctive crystal texture and snow-coloured pastry. Snowskin mooncake is a chic and modern version of its more traditional baked counterpart (check out our Traditional Baked Mooncake recipe here<\/a>!).<\/p>\n

Over the years, snowskin mooncake itself has evolved to take on all hues of colours to match the trendiest flavour of the month. Snowskin mooncakes are normally filled with lotus seed paste, but recently, other flavours have emerged, including red bean or black sesame pastes, and locally acclaimed kaya and Mao Shan Wang durian pastes. Some even use alcoholic flavoured truffles in place of the salted egg yolk.<\/p>\n
