Gift From Home

My mom is here! Yup, she came all the way from Malaysia to help me look after Evy and my confinement month. She arrived yesterday evening and now is still asleep in bed. Below are the goodies she got me!


Mooncake of course, what else? :oP


The design of this mooncake box is just too unique that I had to show it.


Haha...even the mould is unique! All the money sign should tell you it's from Genting Casino. Hehee...


What the inside looks like! Single yolk pandan lotus paste with melon seeds, Yummy!


My brother in-law went back to Muar, Johor to get me this Wife Cake!


Read so much about it and finally got to sample it!


Got this.


And this.


Not bad at all! Thanks BIL!! :o)

hi! i tried out your Kuih Bangkit recipe and they turned out crispy and slightly burnt after 13 mins at 180 celsius. how do we make them melty/soft in the inside and cripsy on the outside?

i still have some batter left and wondering if i should cut the cookies thicker or reduce the baking time or reduce the temperature!

this is my very first attempt at baking of any sort and i guess it is considered a success!

thanks!

Ching, all the lovely goodies, bursting with your family's love. You should be delivering very soon right> Take good care okay?

check with my bro in Ipoh. He said that Ipoh does have old wife n husband biscuits but not the ones like in your pic.
think yours is more famous. That's why my brother never give me wife biscuits from Ipoh when he visits me, and poor me never know Ipoh got such biscuits too.
think better 'balek kampong' more often now :)

Hi Ching, I was just wondering whether you had delivered yet as you seem to be continuing as normal with your blog. (Amazing) Congratulations to you and hubby on the addition to your family member. I am sure in good time you will introduce MeiMei to us. Take care_K
