SINGAPORE : The Mid-Autumn festival which runs from September 9 to October 7 is just around the corner.
And pastry sellers have been working hard to meet demand for mooncakes. These traditional treats are an indispensable delicacy during the festive season.
Competition for the best mooncakes is getting intense.
These days, there are more restaurants and bakeries producing their own mooncakes.
That has led to an increase in demand for pastry chefs who specialise in such delicacies.
In the wake of a shortage of mooncake chefs, some businesses have tried to secure additional production facilities to increase their supply of mooncakes.
"We've invested in a factory to produce mooncakes based on overwhelming response last year. We did 1.5 million. So going forward, we would like to produce more to cater to the market demand," said Robert Han, Group GM of The Quayside Group.
