My kids have been asking me to make their favourite snowskin mooncake. This time i made with Japanese inspired moooncake, matcha mochi wrapped with red bean paste , plain snowskin and topped with beautiful pickled sakura ^_^
Anything decorated with sakura, sure look lovely! At the same time, slight salty taste of pickled sakura just give nice contrast to sweet snowskin and the filling.
How to make them..
Homemade red bean paste and matcha mochi, so i can control the sweetness..
Also a lovely gift to be given away..
