About Kaya cake

Kaya Cake is a traditional Southeast Asian dessert, commonly associated with Malaysian and Singaporean cuisine. Made primarily from a blend of coconut milk, eggs, and sugar, the cake is infused with pandan leaves for its signature green hue and fragrant aroma. The base is often created using glutinous rice, which gives the dish its soft, sticky texture. Kaya Cake is rich and indulgent due to its high content of coconut milk and sugar, making it a high-calorie treat best enjoyed in moderation. While it provides some nutrients from eggs and coconut milk, it is not a significant source of vitamins or minerals. This dessert is a beloved staple for festivals, family gatherings, and afternoon teas, offering a taste of Southeast Asian sweetness and tradition in every bite. Its vibrant color and rich flavor make it a sensory delight despite its limited health benefits.
