Fi...Not sure about myself at all after trying this. First round ended because I did not add the hot water right away so the caramel was already getting hard and by adding the hot water it became a rock. Second round went better but I had hard lumps in my caramel that would not go away. I was not sure how dark it may get before being burnt? Then when the thing cooled down it was no longer liquid at all again but rather crumbly so I could not pour and measure it. I found myself smashing the caramel for quite a while trying to incorporate it in the milk and melted butter. I'm not sure what I did wrong this second time around. It did turn out as a cake but slightly dry for being steamed.

The cakes turned out to be very soft, moist & delicious! The incredible thing is that I burnt the caramel slightly, the batter was bitter as well BUT the cake itself was not bitter at all!! I just starting to learn to make cakes & this is my first ever 'successful' cake. I will make this cake again & again for sure, but next round I will reduce the fat to 60g. 70g is a bit too oily. Anyone know if this batter is suitable for oven baking too?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36043957.post-22334470510417130922008-07-21T10:47:00.000-04:002008-07-21T10:47:00.000-04:00I love this cake, in fact it was the first sweet I...I love this cake, in fact it was the first sweet I made for my husband, and we weren't together at that time though he had secret intentions, haha. Anyway the senget-ness is probably due to uneven heat, either its overcrowded so too little steam circulates in the middle or the cakes too crowded at the sides. I'm not sure of the type of steamer you use, is it the metal type straight on the fire or the bamboo type in a wok or something else?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36043957.post-33102269293347408442008-07-14T14:15:00.000-04:002008-07-14T14:15:00.000-04:00Marysol, sorry about that.
