Рецепт Kiwifruit Jelly Mooncakes
Mooncake Festival falls on 30th September this year and it is only about 4 weeks away. As the weather has been very hot and humid in the past weeks, why not make some jelly mooncakes to beat the heat. After making the Kiwi Popsicles, I continue to use the remaining kiwifruits to make jelly mooncakes with less sugar but fully packed with gold and green kiwifruits. The jelly mooncakes turned out beautifully and very yummy too. I love the sourish of the kiwifruits in the jelly and really enjoyed this cooling dessert very much that I had two kiwifruit jellies at one go.
I'm using this pretty silicone mould that HS gave it to me as a birthday present sometime ago. Thanks HS for this lovely present :)
