Lotus cake is a famous traditional snack in Hangzhou, Zhejiang. "Muck out of the silt but not stained" is people's praise for the elegant and clean quality of lotus. The lotus cake made of pastry noodles is shaped like a lotus, has a clear layer, beautiful appearance, and the food is crispy and sweet, with unique flavor. Lotus crisp is a fancy midpoint commonly used in banquets, giving people a beautiful enjoyment. Since there is no matcha powder, I made the original flavor, purple potato flavor, red yeast powder flavor, cocoa flavor, and lotus crisp with 4 flavors this time.

Tips:

1. I made a bit too much for this portion, I can make 48, if it is too much, it can reduce the amount of the recipe by half.
2. Lard can be replaced with corn oil or butter.
3. I cut a bit shallow, and the ones that are not cracked are too open. Remember to cut until you see the coconut filling.
