    Melbourne-based Malaysian baker Raymond Tan demonstrates how to make fortune cookies with a Japanese-inspired twist, incorporating cardamom and cinnamon flavours.

The cookies are decorated with orange-coloured chocolate to resemble mandarins, a traditional symbol of good luck during Chinese New Year.
