【Kuo Yuan Ye】Pea Filling Cake 6 pieces

The exclusive puff pastry technique, combined with precious lard from a single pig, which yields only 4 kilograms, is used to create this masterpiece. The filling, made from white bean paste, is carefully washed multiple times to achieve a velvety texture. After adding green beans, it becomes soft and fluffy, resembling snow. Enhanced with French fleur de sel, this creates the signature cake of a century-old pastry tradition.

Description
The dense and delicate texture even amazed President Chiang Kai-shek
In the early years, Guo Yuanyi was just a small shop of 15 square meters. The boss would always take the lead every day to roll up the long trouser legs made of flour bags and carefully wash the precious "mung beans" that make the bean paste in the stream beside the shop. After washing, he would put the mung bean kernels into a large pot and stir-fry them into stuffing. In order to make the bean filling more dense, one must stand by the big stove and stir-fry it slowly with a spatula for a long time. The chefs often joke that their sweat beads are bigger than mung bean grains.

On the eve of the Mid-Autumn Festival in 1955, Mr. Chiang Kai-shek, who was then residing at the Shilin Official Residence, was on his way to Beitou for a hot spring bath when he noticed a crowd gathered outside the Kuo Yuan Ye store. Curious about the bustling scene, he asked his chief bodyguard to buy some pastries. After tasting them, the President was immediately captivated by their flavor. Madame Soong Mei-ling was equally impressed and continued to savor their taste, eventually designating them as official diplomatic gifts.

The secret to the deliciousness of these iced mooncakes lies in the use of precious lard, which makes the crust extra crispy and aromatic. Combined with the master baker’s exceptional dough-rolling skills, the result is a beautifully layered, flaky pastry. The filling is soft and delicate, with a snow-like texture, creating a treat that has upheld its century-old reputation.
