It's the mooncake festival again! Anyone gotten sick of eating mooncakes yet? Haha~ Mum has already notified everyone beforehand not to give us any mooncakes coz we cannot finish them every year! (Look at what happened last year!)
We make our own mini snowskin mooncakes every year, and together with Baby's gift of traditional baked mooncakes, it's more than enough for us!
We couldn't get lotus paste this year coz it's sold out everywhere! This taught us a lesson: we should be kiasu-er and buy it earlier next time haha!
Since there's no lotus paste...
Substitute with green bean paste and red bean paste! We've decided on 2 flavours this year: mango and orange~ The mango-flavoured one has dried mango cubes stuffed in the paste!
Busy busy...~
Love the red polka-dotted paper cups!
We made 8 boxes of 6! Most of them are gifts; we only kept 1 box for ourselves~
Love the Q skin!
Gift from Baby: Lotus paste double-yolk baked mooncakes~ I love love love the yolks in baked mooncakes! ^_^
Which do u prefer? The traditional baked mooncakes or snowskin mooncakes?
