This colourful steamed cake is a Chinese Nyonya fusion, soft and slightly chewy. I love this since I was a kid. I like to peel the layers one by one and eat it that way.This cake is more like a pudding than a western cake. It is normally called nine layers cake due to the number of layers.

Makes 12 small cakesFollow the same recipe for lo mai chee up to wrapping and forming the ball. Then gently press the ball to a flat cake, sandwich between both hands.
