Full Moon Gift Pack

Months ago, when I was still in confinement, I was quite excited when thinking of the gift pack that we were going to prepared for our colleagues.

In the old days, the chinese usually gives ka chang ma chicken, red eggs and ang ku kueh to relatives and friends to inform them the baby is full moon. But this tradition is seldom to be seen practice nowadays. Most of the time, they are replaced with a slice of delicious cake from the bakery. Cooking ka chang ma chicken alone is troublesome, what more to say have to boil red eggs and make ang ku kueh. Not everyone know how to make ang ku kueh too! ;p But, it so happened that my mil can make ang ku kueh.



For relatives, we still prepared ka chang ma and red eggs. As for colleagues, ccw and I were almost get the bakery service to help us pack and deliver cakes as we did not feel right to trouble my mil to make all the kuehs. But after much discussion, we decided to get ourselves busy a bit to prepare for the unique full moon gift packs for our colleagues since this is not like happening everyday! My mil seemed to love the idea a lot. So, she made the ang ku kueh and the sesame peanut ball. We got ccw's aunt to make the fruit tarts. CCW did the packaging and delivery. CCW and mil wake up very early to get the gift packs ready. An small incident happened where they missed out a box of the fruit tarts inside the refrigerator and thought that the aunt did not make enough. As a result, some gift packs had no fruit tarts. LOL!


The photos only show part of the gifts that we had prepared, there were more! There were a lot of work to get things done.

If you were interested to have this type of gift pack for your friends but you do not know how to make one, no worry, my friends have just started with their small business offering this service. You can customise you own Full Moon Gift Pack too. They will prepare the gift pack including a little card. I leave you with their contact giftidea09@gmail.com or 016-8500789.
