Foodnote
I am a fan of steam kueh/cake and this recipe is shared by my good friend Teri (she probably got it off the net somewhere). Half way while beating the eggs and sugar, my cake mixer finally broke down complete with a teeny explosion, black smoke and burnt smell haaiizzz. So sad because this mixer belongs to my late mum and there is a date statung it was bought in September 1978. Time to get a new one soon or I have to use the handheld beater for my next cake. 

I used the traditional bamboo steam basket lined with baking paper. I personally think my cake looks cool. I tested the floral stamp that I got too heehe. My steam cake is yummy though i wished the top is smooth. Really yummm...

This will also work in papercup. Saw my friend did another batch which she put the stamp nicely in the middle of the kueh. Awesome!
