The Mid-Autumn Festival, also known as the Moon Festival or Mooncake Festival, is celebrated by many Asian communities as the start of the harvest season. Mooncakes, which commemorate the full moon and the fall harvest, play a central role, as people gather with friends and families to make and exchange them.
Yi-wei Huang has been making pastries and cakes for 30 years. He’s the owner of Double Crispy Bakery, which opened 20 years ago in Manhattan's Chinatown and is one of the biggest mooncake suppliers in the city, selling thousands during the Mid-Autumn Festival every year. The month leading up to the festival is their busiest time, often requiring them to devote the whole team and the entire kitchen to churning out thousands of mooncakes, making no other pastries or cakes.
Follow along as Yi-wei shares what the holiday means to him and others who celebrate it.
