Today is the traditional Chinese Mid-Autum Festival (15th of August according to Lunar calendar). The Festival itself, started in the Tang Dynasty, has more than one thousand years of histroy and is China's second largest festival after the Lunar New Year Festival (Spring Festival).
On the day of the festival, moon cake, a symbol of family reunion and prosperity, is served. Traditional moon cake is a small pancake packed with sugar, sesame, osmanthus flowers, and vegetables, but now there are many variaties despite that people don't eat them that much now as they used to.
Want a piece of moon cake? Or you may want to an ice-cream cake from Häagen-Dazs.

Now there are even cakes made of gold! I guess nobody is going to eat that one.
