The snowskin mooncake is a modern mooncake with a soft skin and a thin, chewy texture. It's also known as ice mooncake or crystal mooncake.

The snowskin mooncake, unlike the traditional baked sugary pastry, is made with sticky rice flour dough and served chilled.
Snowskin mooncakes, unlike the more common traditional mooncake varieties, are not baked. They are a type of Hong Kong mooncake that has gained a lot of traction in Singapore.
For their great cold skin texture, our snowskin mooncakes are arguably the best in Singapore. Their fruity internal fillings put you in a celebratory mood even more.

The flour can be mixed and eaten raw because it has been cooked. This method is used in most snowskin mooncake recipes because it is simple to follow, requires fewer ingredients, and the end result tastes better.
At a gathering, eating snowskin mooncakes with sips of hot tea is a good way to enjoy it. Brighten the atmosphere with well-lit mooncake lanterns, as you would at any traditional mooncake gathering during the Mid-Autumn Festival.
