Healthy mooncake on offer

As the Mid-Autumn Festival arrives this week, mooncakes are now hot sellers, with some interesting trends. The big one: Though gift boxes are as popular as ever, more people are buying the sweet or savory pastries to eat themselves. That means more demand for fresh-made and healthier selections, such as the goodies from the 100-percent vegan and organic bakery Sweet Edition in Beijing. Made with nuts, almond, dates, figs, chia seeds, sesame, cacao butter, the festive treats are unbaked, and free of processed sugar, dairy and gluten. Available in chocolate and sweet-date flavors, a four-piece box (200g) runs 100 yuan ($15), while a six-piece box is 150 yuan.
