Hi Xan,

My mum cooked the above paste. I don't buy lotus paste. I normally cook it myself. Sometimes when I run out of lotus seeds then only I will buy. I like the Green Tea Lotus Paste from Sun Lik.

You can buy the paste from:

Kwong Cheong Thye
Sun Lik
Pastry Mart
Nig Ming Huat. JB

HI aunty,

How do I make mooncake paste like yours? I am not leaving in Spore, so there is no where I can buy them. Please share the recipe with us. Thanks a million. And also you spiral mookcake look very nice and delicious. Can you also teach us how to make that shape. I think that mooncake does not need any mould, therefor really suitable for me. Thank you again aunty.

Hi Alice,

The lotus paste recipe is already in my blog.

As for the spiral mooncake, you need a little bit of skill there.

Hello Aunty

How do you flavour the pandan lotus paste wiht pandan?

Do you have a post of a green tea snow skin?

Can you use the konnyaku jelly molds for the snow skin?

thanks a million!

Hi jenny,

I cooked lotus seed paste with pandan juice and the green colour is natural with no artificial colouring added.

I'm not too sure whether I've posted a green tea snow skin recipe.

Yes you can use konnyaku jelly moulds for snow skin. Just press it in and then dislodge it.

Hi aunty,

Happy Nationalday to you.
I have found the lotus paste recipe. Thanks for sharing. Unfortunately, I dun think I can make it cos I dun know where to get maltose and alkaline water. =( Also I have no mooncake mould. So I guess this year I have to give mooncake a miss. Yours always look very very nice. I will just satisfy my craving by looking at your delicious mooncakes.

Best rdgs,

Alice

Hi Aunty Yochana,

Have tried making using your recipe. Is it suppose to have a strong lotus seed taste?

I've bought lotus paste from phoon huat, before making my own and the taste is really different. The one from phoon huat doesnt have lotus seed taste at all (or atleast I cant taste the lotus seed).

Thanks!

Thanks so much for posting these pictures and the lotus paste recipe! I buy mooncakes every year but never knew how the moon cakes or the lotus paste was made. Very enlightening!

And for those still looking for the lotus paste recipe, I found it here on Yochana's site
