If you are a fan of chiffon cakes, I’m sure you will know what is Hokkaido Chiffon Cupcake in Singapore and Malaysia

This velvety soft cupcake filled with lovely creamy custard cream, is something you will dream of it.

IMG_0919_EditedFun fact: Hokkaido Chiffon Cupcake, also known as 北海道牛奶蛋糕, is not from Japan. It is actually originated in Singapore and Malaysia. 

SAMSUNG CAMERA PICTURESThere were two theories that why we named it, ‘Hokkaido Chiffon Cupcake’. 

1) A chiffon cake that was made using Hokkaido Milk.

2) A cake that looks like a volcano that has a snow top and lava oozing out.

Either way, this concept was beautifully created in Singapore/Malaysia and became really popular ever since.
