Are you looking for unique gifts or want to make something special for parties? Learn how to make a delicious Asian dessert called Snow-Skin Mooncake.
The Snow-skin, sometimes also called Ice-skin, is an on-trend dessert in Asia. You can call it advanced mochi. It is developed from basic mochi and the traditional Mooncake but combines some modern Western dessert techniques to give it a new twist. It's now even more popular than the traditional Mooncake recipe. Of course, Chinese people make them to celebrate the Mid-Autumn Festival.
Join expert Chinese cooking teachers, Hanna and Simon, in their spacious shop with an air conditioner. Together you will learn to make Snow-Skin Mooncakes in small groups. If you book on a weekday, you might even get a private class.
In this class, you will:
Prepare the dough.
Prepare the fillings.
Learn to wrap and prepare it.
Taste your Mooncakes.
You can enjoy your finished Mooncakes in the class or take them home to share with friends and family.
By the end of your Asian cooking classes, you'll have a host of new knowledge about Oriental desserts and you'll have your delicious Snow-skin Mooncakes to enjoy! If you fancy trying a cooking class in London with a difference, this Mooncake workshop is a fun and interesting workshop to try. Enjoy it with your friends or loved ones or head along solo to meet fellow foodies in the neighborhood.

Very friendly Hanna and Simon welcomed us with nice cold drinks and air-conditioning shop.
Made very beautiful and delicious Moon-cakes. They say this can be treated as advanced mochi. Definitely better than normal mochi.
We also bought the mold and necessary ingredients after the class so we can make again at home. This is very handy. Plus their home-made pickles and jams are also very nice.

This is the first cooking class we ever attended. Hanna and Simon are definitely the one we should choose and will be back again and again.
I love eating Snow-Skin Moon-cakes in China. But never learned how to make them. This year I will make them as gift to my friends in the UK because cannot buy it here. Glad found this class and made very nice and delicious Moon-cakes myself.

We are here celebrating our anniversary. We booked two classes together. They are both wonderful.
Simon taught us making many different types of spring rolls first. Hanna taught us making a wonderful dessert. It looks so beautiful, of course, taste delicious as well. Perfect fit into our celebration mood.
Not even mention, we ended up with lots of food to take home to continue our celebration.
We will definitely come back again soon to learn some DimSum skills.
