About Kaya
Kaya is a rich and creamy coconut jam that originates from Southeast Asian cuisines, particularly Malaysia, Singapore, and Indonesia. Made from a blend of coconut milk, eggs, sugar, and pandan leaves, kaya is known for its fragrant, slightly sweet flavor and silky texture. It is typically enjoyed as a spread on toast, paired with butter, or as a filling in pastries. While kaya provides energy due to its sugar content, moderation is key as it is relatively high in calories and saturated fat from coconut milk. Eggs in kaya contribute protein and certain key vitamins, such as vitamin D and B12, adding some nutritional value. While kaya delights the taste buds, its high sugar concentration makes it essential to consume sparingly within a balanced diet. A popular breakfast staple, kaya showcases the harmonious flavors of traditional Southeast Asian cooking.
