Piglet Pineapple Tarts for CNY 2015

I didn't make any sandwiches for my kids today. Was busying making pineapple tarts yesterday because my kids kept bugging me to make for them since I turned the fresh pineapples into pineapple paste. They wanted to bring the tarts to show their friends the piglet tarts they have made. I have been making the piglet design tarts for some time now. They are really popular with kids and adults too!

I covered the pineapple paste with the dough and the small one was the one who rolled the balls, sticked the ears and nose and poke the eyes of the pigs. She even helped to glaze some of the tarts too! She is good assistant to have.  I look forward to the time when she is old enough to bake on her own while all I do is to eat! Wahahaha…
Child Labour: glazing the tarts

I was busy trying out a new design for the Year of Goat. Unfortunately, the design was time consuming and not ideal. I guess I should just stick to making pigs for now.
