This year, the price of moon cakes rose by 10%.

After the introduction of new additives regulations, the moon cake's shelf life became shorter.

Additives to reduce the sales of "ugly" the shelf life has also shortened, the shortest only 7 days, the longest but 90 days this year more than a dozen days earlier than in previous years, Nanjing's moon cake promotion campaign also opened in advance. Compared with previous years, this year because of the introduction of new regulations for food additives, the “look” of moon cakes is far from “pretty” in previous years, and the minimum shelf life has also been shortened to 7 days. However, the two major new channels of microblogging and group purchase are still used by businesses. Mooncake promotions opened the market. At the same time, inflation has led to an increase in raw material prices, which has caused the price of moon cakes to rise by about 10% from last year.

Sugar prices soared more than 30%

Moon cake prices also rose by 10%

It is understood that since the beginning of this year, raw materials such as sugar, flour, edible oil, salt, meat, nuts, etc. have all risen to varying degrees. For example, the price of sugar in Nanjing has soared from 6,000 yuan/ton last year to 8,000 yuan/ton this year. Foreign media reported that local mooncake prices rose by 20% in many places.

The reporter visited a number of supermarkets such as Nanjing Wal-Mart, Jin Runfa, Carrefour, Auchan, and Suguo, and found that the price of moon cakes did rise this year, with an average increase of 10% over previous years. Wal-Mart Xin Jie Kou Taoyuan Village moon cake 75 grams in the price of 4 yuan to 6.6 yuan, Meiling bulk moon cake price of 23.8 yuan / kg; Jinrun hair Ruijin Road shop in bulk moon cake price of 18.8 yuan to 24.8 yuan per catty; Carrefour In addition to a special price of 60 grams of moon cakes priced at 1.6 yuan, the rest of the basic price of 100 grams of 6 yuan to 9.6 yuan. The highest price Guan Sheng Yuan lotus yolk moon cake 80 grams priced at 11.5 yuan; Auchan supermarket bulk moon cake prices due to different brands and tastes, priced from 13.9 to 32 yuan.

The most expensive ones are mooncakes with big brands, new tastes, and high filling prices, such as mooncakes filled with lotus yam, charcoal-burned moon cakes, snowy moon cakes, and moon cakes. According to the moon cake promoter of Wal-Mart Xinjiekou Store, due to rising raw material prices, the price of moon cakes (75 grams or so) each year has risen by about 5 cents, or about 10%, from last year.

Additive new regulations issued moon cake shelf life greatly "shrinking"

Compared with previous years, this year's mooncakes also have a major feature of selling "phase-change". What is the reason for this? Originally, the newly revised national “Standard for the Use of Food Additives” on June 20 this year stipulated that 27 kinds of additives such as bleaching agents and compounding pigments were to be forbidden in food production, and the additives would disappear, and selling would naturally be “ugly”. The reporter saw in many supermarkets that the crust of cakes like pudding mooncakes appeared yellowish and not as white as before. This is because the flour in the moon cakes had fewer brighteners. In addition, the filling of mung bean filling moon cake is no longer green but natural dark green, because of the banned combination of pigments. According to reports, the reduction of additives has shortened the shelf life of moon cakes from the original 6 months to 40-90 days, and the shortest period is only 7 days.

At the same time, this year's moon cake packaging is also much simpler than before. The packaging of bulk moon cakes has no fine print patterns. Moon cake gift box also "slimming" play. In the past, the cases of adulterated wines, ashtrays, and cutlery have not yet appeared in several supermarkets visited by reporters. Gift box material is no longer limited to high-grade metal boxes and wooden boxes, paper gift boxes are more common. In addition, the packaging of large boxes of small cakes and boxes of multi-layer packaging is also relatively rare.
