Hanoi: Ms. Nguyen Thi Thuy Duong, a 31-year-old artisan from Hanoi, along with a team of young craftsmen, has embarked on an innovative project that merges traditional 'to he' (dough figurine) techniques with modern baking skills. This initiative has led to the creation of stunning lotus flower vases crafted from mooncakes, offering a novel twist to the Mid-Autumn Festival treats. According to Vietnam News Agency, this fusion of traditional and contemporary methods not only revitalizes the appearance of mooncakes but also offers a new perspective on preserving and celebrating cultural heritage. By transforming the familiar shapes and forms of 'to he' into edible art, the team has opened up new possibilities for cultural expression during the festival.
