I have done this in Sept, 2011 and am posting this for my reference.
Truffles: (S$11.30/14 pcs) - 2011
Lychee Martini (S$12.50/9 pcs - 2012
Updated pricing is : S$11/12 pcs (2013)
The supplier also sell Brandy truffle. So here is my Chocolate mooncake with Brandy Truffles.
Verdict: I don't really fancy white chocolate but the hint of champagne seems stronger than those I ate before. The Brandy ones are really good, I am getting another box!
What you need:
150g glutinous fried rice flour (糕粉)
