Hi Happy Flour,
This morning I steamed this gula melaka cupcakes for my daughter. She likes the taste but eat a little bit only because the cake a bit too dry and hard. May I check what is the texture supposed to be? Is it soft or a bit hard? Thank you. Ms. Quek
Sorry for the late replied. The texture of this cake is slightly heavy. You can use double action baking powder to improve the texture. You may like to try Sri Meleka Cupcake, Steamed Caramel Cake or Steamed Mini Pandan Cake. They yield softer steamed cake. The above mentioned cakes are in my blog.
