Mooncakes Taste Better After Frying

The Mid-Autumn Festival is approaching, and the mooncakes are in high demand.Markets are bustling with sales. Some consumers believe that the closer to the production date the better when buying mooncakes. Even hoping to buy those made on the same day.For this reason, relevant personnel from Sanya Municipal Consumer Association stated that consumers should not overly pursue product freshness. Because varieties like Guang-style mooncakes tend to have a harder texture right after production and will be more delicious after a "return oil" period. Generally, manufacturers indicate a shelf life of 1 to 2 months for mooncakes.

Due to advanced preservation techniques, the shelf life of some mooncakes can even reach 3 months or half a year. However, many consumers are unaware of the production process and think that the closer to the production date is better, which is actually a misconception. According to relevant experts, newly produced Guang-style mooncakes tend to be dry and hard, lacking luster.

They should have some time for a "return oil" period. As long as they are within their shelf life, the taste of packaged mooncakes will not significantly change, and safety and hygiene indicators remain unaffected.
