Hello Serene sorry for my late reply!!! I am glad the cakes taste good :) if it sinks then the piping batter is a little too thick, either increase the original batter or reduce the cake flour/cocoa powder added. :)

hmmmm so odd. It has never happened to me before. hmmm….. its probably the batter judging by the way you described it. Could be the wrong consistency.

Hi, I finally made a mushipan! Failed! When I steam it, it rised really high but once I took it out from my pot it shrink and surface not as smooth as yours.. (I did use a cloth to cover) and when eaten the cake is hard..! What did i did wrong?

Have the same question as Winnie… wat is hot mix? Ready buy or wat? Can get recipe for it instead cos can’t get it at my place. Tq!

Hello,

Can i ask for the tigger, how do you make the different shades of colour, jus piping the orange to the pink base issit? Cos previously tried the steam cakes, its taste good but all my eyes and nose sink to the bottom :(

Hi Chien

thanks for dropping by. Yes this is a fun recipe and cute cakes. The consistency of the batter is important to ensure that the designs stay on top. So yes, if its too thick or too thin, there is a possibility that it will sink. That is why cake flour etc are added. It does take a while to get used and familiar with the batter consistency for the piping of designs.

Now that’s very cute. I read the instructions but I was wondering if the colored batter has no risk of sinking to the bottom of the cake? Now I only bake cake, never tried steaming but this seems interesting. Using no ovens means no browning of the colors. That’s quite smart. :)

Hi. May I know what is hotcake mix? Is it something bought off the shelf or make ourselves? Where can we buy or what is the recipe to make it?
