I don't know how to bake a moon cake nor snow skin moon cake. So, I just played around with the jelly molds to come out with these crystal clear jelly moon cakes. I made 12 of them to share with my nieces and nephews.
My home made jelly moon cakes contain less sugar and more fruits. I try to use different colors of fruits to beautify the jelly moon cake.
Here, I would like to wish all of you, Happy Mid-Autumn Festival! 中秋节快乐！
