Universities across China have joined the league to make unique mooncakes to celebrate the Mid-Autumn Festival. Different canteens have racked their brains to bring novelty to their tailored mooncakes, many with their own universities' emblems on, to appeal to students.

Take Lanzhou University as an example, the delicious snack can also have practical uses — the purchase of a mooncake guarantees a camel driving license, but with an expiration date. Once you finish eating the cake, the license will be gone too. Besides, the mooncakes are printed with the university's emblems, mottos, and architectures. One can even view school news by scanning the code on them!

Dalian University of Finance and Economics gave out 14,000 mooncake blind boxes to its freshmen, who can scan the anti-fraud QR codes printed on the boxes to download the app of National Anti-Fraud Center.

This year, Xi'an University of Science and Technology launched 11 kinds of mooncake blind boxes with different flavors. Besides the most-favored spicy oil taste, other Shaanxi flavors like gourd chicken and preserved beef are also included onto the list.

To show its alumni's contributions to the Shenzhou 12 project which just concluded successfully, Nanjing University of Aeronautics and Astronautics merged the elements of spacecrafts into its mooncake boxes. If one piles four boxes of mooncakes up and adjusts their faces like a Rubik's cube, one can get a complete picture of the spacecraft.

The mooncakes made by Tianjin University weigh 500 grams and they are even bigger than one's face.

Yantai University also came up with a huge mooncake with a net weight of 110 kilograms, which was made by five bakers taking over 1,000 minutes.
