Hi Doris,
Thanks for your kind words. Try this, it very nice.
Szeqi simply loves this one. She keeps opening the cupboard to look for it. Will be bringing some to her ccc to share with her friends this friday.
Hi laychoo,
Last year I baked this but not enough. So this year I baked more. This is also my boys favourite.
what is pandan paste ?
Hi Anonymous,
Pandan paste is pandan essence in a concentrate form which include the green colouring in it.
i dont have the green pea flour is there any substitute for it .
Hi Anonymous,
You can replace it with corn flour.
Hi Happy ,
if we want make our own Green Pea flour can we take frozen green peas and blend to a powder ..
is that how u make or buy the green pea flour ..
but in case if i want to make green pea flour can i go for frozen peas and blend to powder
Hi Kim,
I bought the green pea flour from supermarket, it is pack in a tube. I did post the picture of green pea before. You can look it under kueh 'Sweet Corn Hoon Kueh'.
Sorry, I'm not sure whether the quality of green pea flour is it the same as the one you blended. You can give it a try or replace it with corn flour instead.
one more question i have for u Happy dear !!
actually i bought a Pandan Paste but its in Can so if i open that one iam sure it wont stay for longer as it hasnt come in like platic bottles what we get for vanilla essence any tips to store for longer usage dear
it would really help me a lot ..
Hi Kim,
Buy a plastic bottle and transfer the pandan paste into it and write the expire on the bottle.
Thanks Happy for ur suggestion dear
Today i opened the canned its like
water not like paste .
it says pandan leaves extract i think i got a wrong one Happy four
any use with this ...
Hi Kim,
You can also use that. Don't discard it. I think it should be the same as pandan essence. Does it has a nice fragrant of pandan leaves?
Hi Happy ,
its totoally liquid form with water yeah it does have the fragnace of pandan leaves but its just extract with residue sitting on bottom
thats it i dont know whether i could use it for this recipe ,if yes then should i pour 1tsp of liquid pandan extract will it give the same results dear ..
regarding icing sugar can u use confectionar sugar is it ok it is also a powdered form which we use in cakes
and custard powder is it jelly brand ...
actually i know 2 types of custards one which we use in in icecreams and fruitcustard which u use in fruits or the other which we use in cakes with jelly brand on it
Hi Kim,
That is not pandan extract, it pandan juice. You can't use it for cookies but can use it for cake instead.
Yes, you can use confectioner sugar. I just used any custard powder available in the bakery mart or supermarket.
Hi Happy Flour,
Is coconut powder = Desiccated Coconut? If not, where do you get your coconut powder? Thank you!
Hi Leen,
Coconut powder is not desiccated coconut. You can buy coconut powder from any supermarket.
