This year’s mid-autumn festival is 9/17 and if you’re looking for mooncakes, we have great news for you!
Different from the Cantonese styled mooncakes with a chewy crust and dense filling, Té Company’s mooncake is filled with sweetened bean paste that’s “not too sweet” and encased in a soft flaky outer dough. We adore this pastry for its simplicity and deliciousness. Like all their pastries, these delicate mooncakes are handmade to order in their Brooklyn commissary. Making the mung bean filling is a seven-step process, from rinsing and soaking the beans to boiling and sifting them. The dough is hand-layered like a croissant and wrapped one at a time. Its unfussy look understates the effort required – until you take your first bite.
They have 3 types of mooncakes available this year — red bean with salted egg yolk, mung bean, and mung bean with salted egg yolk. Gift boxes of 6 mooncakes range from $32-$36. Pineapple cakes, pineapple linzers, and tea leaves are also available.
