Every 1st and 15th day of Lunar calender my mom will offer huat kuih and fruits to our ancestor and god on the prayer alter.These days my mom make her own huat kuih instead of buying from market.As promised ,I brought few Wilton's food coloring for my mom to make her huat kuih.Since I'm free and idling,I offered to help my mom making huat kuih by scooping and steaming.That is all I can help since my mom prepare all the huat kuih ingredients early in morning.Did you see the different between the pink and orange color huat kuih? Well,the different is the pink color was made by your truly yours and the orange color huat kuih made by my mom.Of course,the orange color huat kuih look pretty and huge compared with the pink color huat kuih.
