Description
All my Art student girl lodgers this year are Chinese, and so on their return I received lovely gifts.
This is Qing (pronounced Ching) and her present of high end Mooncakes made with real Lotus paste.
You can read all about the mid-Autumn Festival and the recipes for and symbolism of this very Chinese treat Here
It is well worth the click if the info is new to you.

Looks delicious Andrea just like Qing.
OH They look indeed interesting and I guess they are pretty sweet. Wonderful shots and a lovely little lady :)))
Looks yummy!!
Hungry now! LOL!
Do you need someone to taste them before you eat them ,I volunteer.
Beautifuls captures !
Ah so, lovely pictures of honorable mooncakes, Ms Andrea. Moonraker, moon river, moonbeam, moonlight, moonfish, moonfaced, moon gate, moon glow, moonscape, moonshine, moonshot, moon pies, moonwort, and moon over Miami also come to mind.
So very interesting, other Countries with other traditions and celebrations ... years ago, we had a Japanese student staying with us. He was going for his pilot license, (then) we lived so close to the airport and his Mother used to send us the most interesting things to eat and always send him plenty of knitted white socks, with 5 space/pockets separately knitted for each toe and for each sock - it looked hilarious and he loved them! ;P BB
Almost too pretty to eat; I'll be they are very sweet and very rich!
they look delicious and she is wonderful thanks for sharing (the pictures at least)
They look wonderful, and the description in the link made me wish for a little something sweet. Just a little nibble ... :)
This was very nice of her. And so, forevermore, Qing will be known as "Mooncakes". I do hope you gave them a nibble. I will try the recipe and see what my Chinese friends thinks of them.
nice shots ! yammie
Tasty gifts. Aloha
I can't say I've tried them but they look delicious, lovely collage of photographs
There are a number of different fillings, what was in yours?
Excellent shot, the colours are exquisite Andrea.
Superb captures and collage Andrea. God bless.
Thanks for the link Andrea - it was very helpful. I thought that the lower left photo was a cookie and the link solved that problem. Were they delicious? I see that Rosie knew that Qing had sweets in her gift bag! :)
