What Types Of Chinese Pastries Or Mooncakes Are Your Fillings Most Suitable for?
Jialecheng Foods specializes in high-quality paste and filling products designed for a wide variety of Chinese pastries and mooncakes. With years of manufacturing experience and advanced processing technology, the company’s fillings are carefully developed to deliver stable texture, balanced sweetness, and authentic flavor that meet both traditional craftsmanship and modern production standards.
1. Cantonese-Style Mooncakes
Recommended Fillings:
Lotus Seed Paste
Red Bean Paste
Mixed Nuts with Syrup
Five Kernel (Wu Ren) Mix
Custard or Salted Egg Yolk Paste
Why Suitable:
Cantonese mooncakes require smooth, dense, and aromatic fillings that maintain structure after baking. Jialecheng’s fillings are heat-stable and low in moisture, preventing oil separation or cracking of the mooncake skin.
The company’s winter melon paste is especially popular as a base ingredient, blended with other materials to create customized flavors for OEM/ODM clients.
2. Suzhou-Style Mooncakes
Recommended Fillings:
Red Bean Paste
Black Sesame Paste
Jujube (Date) Paste
Sweetened Taro Paste
Why Suitable:
Suzhou-style mooncakes feature crispy, layered pastry crusts and semi-sweet fillings. Jialecheng’s pastes maintain moist texture without excessive oil, ideal for traditional layered pastry production.
3. Teochew-Style Mooncakes
Recommended Fillings:
Mung Bean Paste
Yam (Taro) Paste
Lotus Seed Paste with Salted Egg Yolk
Why Suitable:
Teochew mooncakes emphasize fragrance and creaminess. Jialecheng’s fillings are processed to a fine, smooth consistency that pairs perfectly with flaky pastry. The taro and mung bean pastes are particularly suited for spiral pastry crusts that bake evenly without cracking.
4. Taiwanese-Style Mooncakes
Recommended Fillings:
Pineapple Paste
winter melon paste (as pineapple base)
Red Bean and Mochi Combination
Why Suitable:
These mooncakes often feature fruit-based fillings that balance sweetness and acidity. Jialecheng’s fruit series (such as pineapple, mango, or mixed fruit paste) uses natural pulp and low-sugar recipes, ensuring authentic flavor and a stable shelf life for export.
