Look so soft & fluffy!
Are those paper liners from Phoon Huat? They held their shape in the oven without any baking tin to hold it?

Looks yummy! Does it have a rich milky taste? Because I saw honey part of the ingredients too.

Hi NEL,

Yes, I bought the paper liners from Phoon Huat. It will expand slightly when the liner is fill with batter, arrange it on a baking tray and straight into the oven.
