Hi Aunt Yochana,

May I know where did you buy the molds and are they expensive? It looks lovely. I live in Malaysia but I have a cousin currently working in Singapore. So, I might get her to help me get it if it's convenient for her..

Thanks.

Regards...Youngbaker

Hi Youngbaker,

I bought these molds from Phoon Huat Singapore. You can try your phoon huat in KL. or you can get your cousin to get it for your from PH Singapore.

Hi Aunt Yochana

Thank you so much for your help. I am not sure if they have Phoon Huat in KL. Perhaps I will ask my cousin to get it for me...

Thanks once again...Youngbaker

Dear Yochana,

The moulds are open sided - does this mean that you made the mousse & cake in a much larger container and then just use the moulds to cut out the shapes? If so, do you "cut" once the mousse is fully assembled or cut out the cake layer first and then the mousse layer ? Could you please advise cos very often I come across this open sided moulds (including big ones) and am mystified as to how to use them. Many thanks, Joyce

Hi Jocye,

Firstly you have to bake a piece of thin sponge cake. Use you petite cake rings to cut it out and leave it as a base then pour in the mousse and let it set in the refrigerator. You need quite a number of cake rings for this. Another alternative is to make a big cake with mousse then use your cake ring to cut out whatever shapes you want.

Hi Aunty Yochana,

How do you prevent the mousse from sipping to bottom to the cake layer?

Hi May,

make sure your sponge fits the cake ring tightly so that no mousse will leak out.

Aunty,

I've thought of another way. Perhaps I could wrap a piece of cling film around the mould, then fill up the mould with the mousse first, and then top it up with a sponge...Perhaps it would not leak then..

What do you think?

Regards...May

Hi May,

That can be done too.

dear auntie yochana,
am an ardent fan of yur website for quite some time. I understand that you do not provide recipes for all your pics.
Is it possible to know the title of some cookbooks that you have used/love or have inspired you.(In English pls). I am just astounded with the variety that you have baked so far and would love to try them as well.
I am fond of cakes,especially mousse cakes. Thanks a million.

Hi Linq,

go to Kunokuniya or 25Degree celsius. They have a lot of baking books. I have too many of my favourite to quote. Browse through those books and see if it suits your taste. Popular or Harris also does have a lot of books too.
