One is the Pak Thong Koh which texture is quite different from regular cake while the other rice cakes has coconut milk and brown sugar flavour. The fatt ko which has a yeast starter has a great flavour and a lightly chewy or bread like texture. Hope this helps. Suanne Hi flown,

Maybe I will experiment with another brand of bp and use coconut milk instead of coconut cream, probably too thick to form a smooth batter. btw, I am using castor sugar, hope it is not the one that contributed to my failure in making this cake. Will try again and hope to succeed in time for my christmas party. Thanks for sharing your recipe, Suanne Yap, I have used the double acting baking powder and it is still far from its expiry date.

Did you use the right baking powder and check it's expiry date? Hi Leng, the only problem I can see here is the double acting baking powder.

One thing I noticed when I mixed the flour with coconut milk, it formed a dough and not a smooth batter n watery as shown in your picture. What do you think I might have not done correctly? Thanks Hi Suanne,

If the leavening agent is not working, the cake wont rise. Try with a new batch of baking powder. Hi WeiSheng, when comes to baking or cakes, never use expired baking powder.

The texture is not fluffy at all but very kueh-like. I suspect it's due to my baking powder which is near expiry. I'm definitely going to try this again as we love this cake and this recipe doesn't require wine biscuit. Hi, I’ve made this sometime back but it was a flop.

Cooking is an adventure and you can always try adding new stuff to a recipe as long as the basic requirement is there. If you intend to make it in a larger pan, you might need to steam it longer like 30 minutes of so.
