Pandan Hokkaido chiffon cupcakes 班兰北海道戚风小蛋糕

I can't remember how long i did not bake some Hokkaido cupcakes. Since i have some homemade concentrated pandan paste, so I use it to make few Pandan Hokkaido cupcakes. The cake was light, natural fragrance, love the pale green colour, and well matching with Chantilly cream.




Fill cake batter till about 90% full

Don't worry when you see cake rise like volcano, LOL. Once you removed from the oven, they will shrink and have nice crack effect.

I just prepared this simple Chantilly cream

I noticed this type of cupcake liner always have this problem where the cake leave from the wall of liner. I still prefer the square box liner that i used for my 1st Hokkaido cupcake.

Don't worry if you do not have this type of piping tip, just use normal tip, insert in the cake and pipe the cream.

The photos are SO pretty. I admire your photography skill. You can write your own cookbook using your own photos already Sonia.

BTW I also notice my baked muffins tend to 'leave' the side of my cupcake liner which is similar to this type you are using. Perhaps due to the wax?

Redyoyo, Thanks for your compliment . Yes should be the wax caused this problem

Just follow your recipe yesterday! It turned out good and soft! Thanks Sonia. Just one comment, the 1 tsp of concentrate pandan juice is not fragrance enough to me. If I would like to add more pandan juice, does that mean i need to reduce the milk as both also liquid?

Sonia ~ Nasi Lemak Lover said...

Mee , is ok if you add extra 1/2tsp to 1tsp concentrate juice more.

Lenny said...

The cupcakes look so nice! Just wondering if I can use the pandan extract using your vanilla hokkaido chiffon cupcake recipe, if I wanted to make 2 flavors? Or is this recipe better?

Podthebaker said...

Hello Sonia! I'm interested to make these cupcakes for an event on Sunday, but I don't really have time to bake them on Saturday or Sunday so I'll have to bake them on Friday, which is tomorrow.. Will they stay fresh till Sunday? Do you suggest I pipe the cream on Saturday night? Thanks!

Hi Sonia,
I'm baking this cupcake for lactose and nut free picnic this weekend. Just wonder can I substitute the 40gm milk with 40gm coconut milk? Also, is there any substitute for the chantilly cream cos it's a lactose free picnic? Need your expert advise. Thanks

Sonia ~ Nasi Lemak Lover said...

Baglicious, yes you can replace with coconut milk, and for chantilly cream, you can replace with storebought fresh cream i.e non dairy whipping cream

Baglicious said...

Hi Sonia. Thanks for the prompt reply. Ok will use the coconut milk. As for the fresh cream, it can be used straight and piped into the cupcake right?

Sonia ~ Nasi Lemak Lover said...

Baglicious, yes you can but must store cupcakes in the fridge to avoid the cream melt .

Baglicious said...

Thanks Sonia. Yes guess it's not suitable for picnic. Hmm. Definitely will bake it for special occasion.
