mooncake experiment 14 Jan 2010

experimented with mooncake making on this evening. she got her recipe ready and assuaged him that she had all the details. and so they started.

yam core surrounded by matcha flavoured filling, while the outer skin was cocoa flavoured.


view of them in whole. if you're wondering about the green one, it's because they ran out of skin, so they made mooncakes out of the filling.


another, a round mooncake. filling's too sticky and it kept getting onto the mold, hence the broken edges.


it was a minor botched job in the end, because she used 25g of matcha powder instead of 5g as stated. no wonder the matcha felt a little too heavy for his liking...
