According to Master Kong, in order to achieve a soft pastry shell filled with a soft and rich texture of a sweet custard and duck egg cream, the moon cake process requires extensive experience and accurate timing to ensure a perfectly delectable, soft and moist moon cake.

With 50 years of cooking and baking experience, Master Kong started cooking back while he is still a teenager in Bidor and later worked as a chef at several top hotels and restaurants in Malaysia, Singapore and Hong Kong before setting up his moon cake confectionary 10 years ago. Some of Master Kong’s famous creations include the world’s largest moon cakes and also the world’s tallest moon cakes; these magnificent feats are a testimony to his culinary skills.
