Snow skin mooncakes cannot be stored at room temperature for more than two hours. The manufacturing method of snow skin mooncakes is different from that of traditional Guangdong mooncakes. Snow skin mooncakes are made with special snow skin flour, which is mixed with cold boiled water into dough, and then the fillings are wrapped and placed into molds. Although the hygiene control of the entire process is very strict, it does not require high-temperature baking, which would increase the risk of microorganisms. Therefore, snow skin mooncakes require stricter temperature control during transportation and storage. When carrying snow skin mooncakes or ice cream mooncakes outdoors, you should use a travel refrigerator to refrigerate the mooncakes and take them out of the refrigerator just before eating. Therefore, if the snow skin mooncakes are left at room temperature for more than two hours, they should be discarded. Otherwise, people with weak gastrointestinal function will easily get gastrointestinal diseases after eating them.
