Watermelon shaped bakes seems to be in the trend this year. You can find watermelon shaped bread, roll cakes and now mooncakes! This idea is from a bakery in Taiwan who hit the news recently with this creation. This is my first time using Ghee and I am surprise to find out that this cultured butter is full of health benefits. I love it as I am one who advocates using all natural, healthy and premium ingredients for baking!

The cooking temperature as suggested in all my recipes serve as a guideline. Every oven has different thermostat, you may have to adjust the temperature and timing to suit your oven. Different brand of ingredients have different composites, thus there may be a slight difference in the end result. 食谱里的烘烤温度和时间只是供参考，每一架烤炉的恒温器都不同，请自己调适。不同品牌的材料有不同的复合材料，所以最终成品有可能稍有不同。
