Mooncakes were originally used to worship the goddess of the moon, and eating moon cakes in the Mid-Autumn Festival is a tradition started from the Yuan Dynasty.

Afterwards, in the upcoming Mid-Autumn Festival, the emperor used "moon cakes", which secretly conveyed information when starting soldiers, as the seasonal cakes and rewards to the courtiers to make all the soldiers enjoy with the people. Since then, the production of "moon cakes" has become more elaborate and more varied. After that, the custom of eating moon cakes during the Mid-Autumn Festival spread among the people.
