During the Mid-Autumn Festival, people usually choose to eat moon cakes. There is still some time before the Mid-Autumn Festival, but people are already preparing to buy moon cakes, which has greatly increased the sales of moon cakes. The price of moon cakes ranges from tens of yuan to 400 yuan. Consumers can choose suitable moon cakes according to their actual situation, but most people are actually more willing to buy moon cakes around 100 yuan. According to the media, mooncakes with a price of 100 yuan are the mainstream of the market. The price of mooncake gift boxes is between 100 ~ 300 yuan, and there are few gift boxes above 400 yuan.
In order to get higher profits, some manufacturers will make great efforts in packaging, but this also leads to some extravagance and waste, and even uses some precious materials in the packaging process of moon cakes. As a kind of Chinese food, the cost of moon cakes is relatively low, but the prices of moon cakes seen by the public are different. Moon cakes are seasonal foods, and some enterprises will add various precious fillings to the materials and over-package them, which makes the price of moon cakes higher and higher, and also attracts consumers' complaints.
Most moon cakes in 500 yuan appear in hotels, mainly because the ingredients used are very expensive, which also makes the premium of moon cakes very high, which is not a good phenomenon for everyone, and may intensify social conflicts and bring bad social impact. It is good to celebrate traditional festivals, but people need to advocate frugality instead of wasting too much on moon cakes.
