  16. Spray a little mist on the surface of the moon cakes, put them in a preheated oven (if you bake multiple plates at a time, you can increase the preheating temperature), bake at 160 degrees in the stove mode for 7 minutes, and then take it out (170 degrees in the oven in the upper and lower heat mode).

  17. If the wrapping is slow, you can wrap one plate and bake it once to set it, and then put it in the oven together to continue baking after the 4 plates are wrapped and baked.

  18. After taking out the moon cakes, let them cool slightly, make egg yolk water in the gap, add a little peanut oil, moon cake syrup, and water to the egg yolk and mix evenly, and then sieve once.

  19. Use a wool brush to brush a thin layer of egg wash on the surface of the mooncake, it must be very thin! It is not recommended to use other brushes here.

  20. Put the moon cakes into the oven again, and bake at 140 degrees for 10 minutes in the stove mode (165 degrees for the oven in the upper and lower heat mode, which can be covered with tin foil).

  21. After the moon cakes are baked, prepare the bottom bracket, machine sealed bag, and food oxygen absorber. Encapsulate the mooncakes when they are cold to warm, and the shelf life of the mooncakes sealed while they are hot will be a little longer. If there is no oxygen absorber, let it cool and pack it well.
