About Bolu

Bolu is a traditional Indonesian sponge cake, known for its light, fluffy texture and subtle sweetness. Made from simple ingredients such as eggs, sugar, flour, and butter or margarine, it is often flavored with vanilla, pandan, or chocolate, and sometimes includes additional ingredients like coconut milk or grated cheese for variation. Bolu is commonly served during celebrations or as a tea-time snack. While it provides quick energy due to its carbohydrate and sugar content, it is relatively low in fiber and can be calorie-dense, particularly when made with butter or additional sweet toppings. Moderation is key, as its delightful taste can lead to overindulgence. For a healthier twist, some recipes use whole-grain flour or reduce the sugar content. Bolu remains a beloved comfort food that reflects the rich culinary heritage of Indonesia.
