Hello, Fatmum.

I came across your blogspot because I was looking for recipes for steam cake. I was at Narita Airport last week, bought a box of melon steam cake, and the taste was heavenly. I got hooked!

I love making bao, too. You wrote that you bought a cartoon bao book. I would like to know if it is printed in English because I would like to try to make them, too.

Thank you!
