ooh aunty this looks so good! actually saved your recipe for steamed moist choc cake recently to bake for my friend's birthday over the weekend. then i saw this! wonder which tastes nicer??

oh! and also about steaming the cake. i read in one of the comments that i can use a wok? if so how do i know if the cake is done? by opening it up regularly to check?

thanks aunty!! :D

Hi a pocket full of posies,

I really admire those who uses a wok to steam their cake. I for one has no guts to do that. I used a 3-tiered steamer. A wok cannot put much water and you have to top it up all the time causing anxiety on the cake thus the collapsing cake will appear. Opening the cover is not good for the cake. To know whether the cake is cooked, firstly judge by the number of minutes u have steamed then after that stick in a skewer to test whether it's cooked

Have fun.

This chocolate cake looks so delicious. Did you use the Cocoa Fudge frosting?
Tomorrow is a holiday, so I thought of baking. Please may I have the recipe for the Cocoa Fudge frosting? Thank you and have Happy Good Friday and Easter!
Aunty, this comment is actually meant for this chocolate cake. Still waiting patiently for your Cocoa Fudge recipe. Thanks.
