About us @ Homebakes
HomeBakes Premix Recipe was first founded by my mother and auntie in 2005, Penang Island, Malaysia.
We have come from a generation of Nyonya kuih makers, with recipes handed down for multiple generations, starting from my great-grandmother. Out of passion, my family has decided to make use of the recipes, start up this business, selling all sorts of baking premixes, ingredients and utensils.
Due to lockdown woes, I long to go back to taste the cakes that decorated my childhood memories. It was then that I decided to extend my family business here in NZ. My goal is to make traditional Nyonya kuih accessible and affordable to everyone with premix recipes and simple to follow instructions. Most importantly, all ingredients are easily sourced in the supermarket.
Come and join me in making these delicious treats!
With love,
Eunice
I have first come to know the existence of baking premixes since 2005, when my mum started her business back in Penang. Since then, I have been fascinated by the idea! And I thought baking premixes is such a genius invention! Here’s why:
- Convenience:
Baking premixes include everything you need (almost!). So you don’t need to worry about leftover flour that sits at the back of your pantry forever and cracking up ideas in what to do with it. And, less mess in the kitchen. - Cost effective:
Believe it or not, I certainly have spent way too much on food. Baking premixes provides the best of both worlds in satisfying your cravings without breaking your wallet at the same time. - Healthy:
All premixes are made with high quality and all natural ingredients. There are no preservatives or any chemicals in them. Rest assured, you and your family can devour yummy desserts with a peace of mind. - High success rate:
All premixes are derived from recipes passed down for generations, and have been tested and sold for many years in Malaysia. We make sure the instructions are clear and easy to follow, and the end product is yummy! - Last but not least, sense of achievement!
Since lockdown strikes, there are so much time to spare at home. Why not make use of the time to make delicious treats your own, and impress everyone with your baking skills
HomeBakes Premix Recipe aim to provide our customers with affordable, easy to follow instructions, and high quality baking premixes. We take pride in our recipes and hope more people would not forget and continue to pass down the beautiful culture of nyonya cuisine. Let’s get baking with HomeBakes!’
A little background on nyonya kuih.
Peranakans are the descendants of early Chinese settlers of Malaya, who married local Malays and started families. A female Peranakan is known as a Nyonya, and a male, Baba. Peranakan cuisine is now known as Nyonya cuisine. In Nyonya cooking , Chinese ingredients are coupled with various distinct spices and cooking techniques used by the Malay community. The word “kuih” is derived from the Chinese word “粿“, which is a generic term that refers to bite-sized snacks or desserts.
The most common ingredients in Nyonya kuih are desiccated coconut, coconut cream, pandan leaves and palm sugar (gula melaka). The base and texture of kuih are built from a group of starches, i.e. rice flour, glutinous rice flour and tapioca flour. Hence, kuih should appeal to most gluten-free audiences as wheat flour is rarely used in kuih!
The art of making Nyonya kuih has been passed down by generations and generations. As a Nyonya descendent, I feel it is my responsibility to keep this tradition going strong!
