This is my first attempt making mooncake piglets, after a break of about 2 years. The last time I made snowskin mooncakes was in 2010, before I left for my studies. I have originally intended to bake just simple piglet biscuits – those that can be commonly found in heartland bakeries, contained in the small colourful baskets. Unfortunately, Phoon Huat no longer sells the baking moulds for these piglets; which means I have no other choice but to shape these animals with my own hands plus the little bit of creativity that I have left in my greying cerebral remains.
