We shopped at K.S.T Bakery Ingredients buying the needed flour, shortenings, mold, and fillings. No worries if it is your first time making the moon cakes because you can ask for the recipe list from boss.
Under my little brother, Justin guidance, i managed to make the dough, which took about 15 minutes for the dough making. My brother advised that dough is the most important part because whether the moon cake will be success in making or not, it all depends on the 'skin'. If the dough is elastic enough for you to wrap the fillings, it means that you have successfully making the dough. If there are still broken pieces at certain part of the dough or exceeding time, it will cause the dough less elastic.
After making the dough, we fill in the fillings and making the shape of moon cake out of the mold. The part that needed some skills is during the shaping as we will need to make sure that the flowers shape and wordings are clear enough and beautiful for viewing. Here is my moon cake making. What do you think? hehehehe.... I pack them in two types of boxes, one is as seen below and another one in microwave plastic containers.
