CHINESE NEW YEAR BAKING


20/1/2016
Wednesday

The race is getting closer.......race to finish the orders and race to get ready for the Chinese New Year.
Still got to do CNY spring cleaning and momentarily I was saddened with the thought, that this year there is no one to help me change the curtains, wash the ceiling fans, wash the air-con filters and to do some of the wet market purchasing for me, thing which he had been doing for me yearly!  I quickly banished all these thoughts as the saying goes "when the horse die, start walking". Well, when there is a will there is always a way.  

But first concentrate on the baking....

Thank God, I have the best "jam roller" (ie my sister) to help me over the weekend.

it's the size that matters... a small bit more or less of the jam would change the way the tarts have to be packed?

the patience and skill in applying the egg wash is also important to the finished product, 
thanks to my daughter Esther.

finally the task of packing them neatly in the container cannot be overlooked, 
thanks to my daughter Sarah. 

So there you are and hope all my customers will like them. 

these are mamakaries samples only .

Wishing everyone an early Happy Chinese New Year as I will not be posting anything until after the festive season.
