A real mooncake at Twelve cupcakes
2014-08-13 57 瀏覽
Every year, Chinese people celebrate moon festival with moon cakes.
Although it is called a mooncake, it does not actually contain any cake because it is filled with lotus paste and egg yolk.
The mooncakes here are going to go down well with Westerners and people who do not like the traditional mooncakes.

As soon as it was sliced, you could smell the earl grey.
It was moist, soft and sweet infused with earl grey tea leaves in the cake.

In the middle, it is orange to mimic the yolk.
I paired this cake with the strawberry and mango tea which had a sweet scent.

The expresso is great for coffee lovers because it had rich expresso buttercream frosting.

This was my favourite because it had a strong taste of cocao decorated with chocolate buttercream and dried cranberries.
