Final batch of mooncakes for this year...

These are the last batch of moonies that I made for this year...Did a calculation, the ingredients has cost me at least $250! But I am glad. At least I made enough to give away as gifts to my parents, sil and bil families as well as close family friends and colleagues.

I have got so many people to thanks for, without them, I wouldn't be able to have their tested recipes as well as guidance.

Thanks Lucy for the traditional mooncake recipe. I was told that I have to keep at least 4 days for the oil to come out and the pastry will be soft and nice.

Thanks Lee Lee for the walnut mooncake recipe. I made these last year and everyone wanted again this year..yummilicious definitely!

Thanks stan17 for the spiral mooncake recipe, the pastry is very yummy but I didn't do well for the rolling part, really need 'kang-hu'!

Thanks Jo aka Mooncake for the snowskin recipe. Yummy too!

and thanks to my colleagues and friends who has help to collect very nice pretty mooncake boxes for me too!
