After the hungry ghost festival, its time for humans to get hungry. No pun intended. I hope i don't offend anyone... or anything...

To commemorate the lady who flew up to the moon faster than a speeding rocket or space shuttle, we have the mooncakes!!

I was sourcing through some leaflets and brochures in my coy when i come across this piece of ad. Well i happen to be the coy's mail boy so i get first dips on all sorts of letter. Being mail boy ain't that bad. You know who is doing what and basically everybody's dirty linen is at your mercy. Hence sometimes i get gifts or free meals from them directors. *ahem*
These are mooncakes from "The Baker's Cottage" a famous bakery from Malaysia making all sort of pastries. Not many of such bakeries have their own web pages and even hire personnel online.

Try to beat that price!!


My personal favourite, the pure lotus paste mooncake. Don't know why, those fancy ones with icings, funny fillings or even the yolk doesn't appeal to me. Yes, i know i have a funny choice when it comes to food to which i prefer "lao hong" keropok than those freshly out of the pack.


Moon cakes too are following the trend. Knowing that consumers are more cautious about their looks and weight, introducing Mooncake Si, AKA Mooncake light, with low sugar content guarantee you will not bust that weighing machine which offends you every morning.

Oh by the way, i am not selling mooncakes this year. Just that i feel the mooncakes offered by Baker's Cottage is way better than Lei Ahma Sor lou's, Bread Chat's, or any fanciful restaurants best of all, at a better price.

Don't worry about it being too sweet, thick skinned or missing yolk which are common problems in making mooncakes. I have had a lot of complements coming from friends and ex-customers, hence with such confidence i have no doubt that the quality given is top notch. Good things are meant to share, hence please visit http://www.mooncakejdv.blogspot.com/ for more information on varieties and ordering method.

Wow, first bakery that blogs. Ah... there is something new everyday....
