However, one of the more quirky flavours that has gotten our attention recently is the petai mooncake and well, it looks like nothing you’ve ever seen before! This innovative mooncake is made by a home baker located in Ipoh, and she has a whole range of petai products that are bound to entice any fans of the pungent vegetable. 

The petai mooncake is also different from the traditional mooncakes, as it has a spicy filling inside instead of the sweet kind. Basically, the baker said that the mooncake is made of potatoes, spices and petai, which actually sounds pretty delicious if you think about it.
