Overview

liuliu has made many traditional Chinese dim sum. After absorbing the essence of traditional dim sum making, I no longer want to just imitate, I want to make my own Chinese dim sum. Inheritance and innovation are what Liuliu will continue to carry forward on the road of learning Chinese dim sum. I hope that the dessert world will not only be a stage for Western desserts, but Chinese dim sum can also show off its style like a breeze. Today I created a pastry with the theme of red plum and spring, and made a sweet but not greasy honey and osmanthus drink. In the afternoon, accompanied by Chinese pastries that melt away with just a sip, you will be intoxicated by the sweetness of the pastry, which is as chewy as a moon, with both crispy and sweet fillings.
