Many stories abound regarding the real reason for this traditional celebration for the Chinese people. With the globalization of the world economies and the rise of China, the celebration had spread through the race barrier especially for a multi -racial country like Singapore. We see people of all races coming together to celebrate this wonderful union. Even in churches the moon cake celebration was also well attended by their congregation. It had thus evolved from a purely Chinese Belief to one that transcend the race and religious barrier. A wonderful example of an evolving world where the cultures and beliefs of all people come together in a wonderful and meaningful show of humanity at it's BEST.The MOON CAKE by itself also represented the merging trend with odd and varied flavor but the traditional flavours are very much alive. The shape of the cake represent the reunion of families and races of the nation. In the grassroots organizations this is an important event to bring people together and harmonized the societies of the nation.
The firm and delightful skin of the MOON CAKES reflect the need to hold and preserve the harmony of the people both within the family and the nation.
The different flavors are an indication of the diversities and richness of the people.
HORRAY TO THE BEAUTY OF THE MOON CAKE CELEBRATION!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
