Golden Charcoal with yolk mooncake

Today I have mooncake again for breakfast, this time it is the Golden Charcoal with yolk mooncake. I brought it from a street-side stall at Desa Setapak for only RM9. This mooncake is beautifully decorated which golden color on its charcoal skin. For those who don't know what a moon cake is,a mooncake is a Chinese bakery product traditionally eaten during the Mid-Autumn Festival. Mooncakes are offered between friends or at family gatherings while celebrating the festival. The Mid-Autumn Festival is widely regarded as one of the four most important Chinese festivals. Typical mooncakes are round pastries and have a rich thick filling usually made from red bean paste or lotus seed paste is surrounded by a thin crust and may contain yolks from salted duck eggs. Mooncakes are usually eaten in small wedges accompanied by tea. Here are pictures of me having it for breakfast.
