Star lanterns are the symbol of the Mid-Autumn festival in Vietnam, but in reality, the plastic color papers used to make lanterns are still unaffordable in some rural areas. In needy circumstances, Vietnamese people, with their flexibilities, created the Can Lantern.
We at REFORMN introduced the Can Lantern in the form of creative packages, so everyone whether is familiar with this type of lantern or not, can all enjoy them in a surprising way. The Can Lantern is combined with the moon cake in an entire colorful packaging design with high-end printing and finishing techniques. Consumers, after having the cakes inside the cans, are able to follow the instructions to create a Can Lantern by themselves with the materials provided.
