Hi there, thanks for stopping by my site earlier and thanks very much for your nice comment. That's very nice of you. Actually, there are Bamboo Charcoal mooncakes available in the market, just maybe you didn't notice them. You know, not many Chinese like to buy black colour stuffs for the celebration and so not many of them selling it as well. SEE, what I mean! There are all kind of mooncakes available in the market already like coffee, chocolate, pandan, bamboo charcoal, green tea... you just name it! Btw, your mooncakes are really gorgeous. I love the mould as well, very very shape. I wish I can get one of this mould here too! However, thanks for everything and wishing a very happy mooncake festival. Have fun!
