Spent my weekends away doing agar agar mooncake. First started when I bought my moulds from Jurong West during lunch. Lu Ma Ma bought us out for lunch and we walk pass this neighbour shop selling baking products. They have lots of mooncake agar agar mould. He He I cannot resist them so got a few. See this is how much I bought in 2 trips to the shop.
Did some google search and found lots of agar agar mooncake photos. Didn't know it is so popular and so many variety outside.
Start to plan my menu and end up buying so many artificial colouring and flavouring.
These are all the items required. Spent quite a bit on all these.
The most expensive product on the list. Agar agar powder costs me around $12. But it is quite a big bottle. Can use for a long period.
Making in process... ...
Measure and measure, weight and weight... ...
Got the egg yolk idea from other people's blog and tried doing it myself. Made using carrot juice and agar agar powder. Was so excited when it is ready. 
See... Does it looks like real duck egg yolk. So cute and Q in texture.
Tried chrysanthemum flavour with egg yolk. Turn out to be so pretty but the chrysanthemum taste is not strong enough.
Did all these for my Muslim colleagues! I bought new pots and ingredients and these disposable container for them. So pretty right!
This is my favourite! Yam topping, rose syrup top half and coconut milk bottom half.
This is not bad too. Bandung topping, yam top portion and rose syrup bottom portion.
This is chrysanthemum with 4 yolks.
Guess this is for who???

Guess this is for who???For my darling Jeanne at work. She bought the bear bear mould asking me to do the agar for her. Used all the leftover after forming the other moulds to make this bear. Turn out to be so attractive looking. Am so proud of myself.
