Jaggery Sago Agar-agar Mooncake 黄糖西米菜燕月饼

This is my 3rd batch of agar-agar mooncake for the coming festive season. I've chosen to flavour it with jaggery sugar and pairing it with sago filling. Earlier, I thought this is such a wonderful idea to recreate something fun and exciting for my guests and never thought it will became reality, one after one creation. And I am feeling great and thankful for the compliments given. Hopefully, I'll be able to recreate more exciting jelly mooncake on the coming days. So, stay tune guys !

Jelly mooncake was created evensince the economic crisis started years ago. And due to lower costing, jelly mooncake is now highly recommended during the festive season as a gift which is cheaper and healthier for all range of consumers.  So, for the coming years jelly mooncake should be widely sold during the mid-autumn festival.
