Perfectly golden mooncakes mark the Mid Autumn Festival next week! Golden syrup is one of the key ingredients to a beautifully golden, amber and chewy mooncake ...crust. While making mooncakes is a labor of love, nothing beats the homemade taste (and lack of chemical preservatives!) This golden syrup takes you one step closer to truly incredible mooncakes! The hardest choice is whether to go with red bean, lotus paste, or ham and nut mooncakes!
