Steamed honey comb cake with coconut flavor

I just learned how to make these tiny adorable honey comb cakes. I have tried this in the past, but I like this recipe better. It's from one of my net pal. The texture is quite different because I added tapioca flour in it. In the past, I only use rice flour. This time, the combination of rice flour and tapioca flour made the finished product fantastic. Check it out.

See the honey-comb texture?

I just love all the rainbow colors. It was so fun making these yummy, adorable cakes.

Below is the combination of part I & II added together and ready to let it sit overnight.

The next morning, the dough will look like this.

Then you add part III to the dough, and it will thin out like below. Then let it sit for another three hours or so in luke warm water.

After 3 hours, you can start mixing color. You can make any color you like. As you can see below, I have yellow, light green, white , pink , and cherry color. I heard if you combine red and blue it will come out purple. But it did not work for me :-( It came out this cherry color. Oh well. Maybe next time, I have better luck.

Once you steamed it, you want to put them in a pan fillled with cold water so they can cool off.

Once they are cool off, you are done. I only made 1 bag of rice flour and 1/3 bag of tapioca flour. And I have tons of them. It's a great snack.
