About Kuih talam

Kuih Talam is a traditional Malaysian dessert originating from the culinary heritage of Southeast Asia. This two-layered delicacy is a popular member of the “kuih” family, featuring a vibrant contrast of flavors and textures. The base layer is made from rice flour, mung bean flour, and pandan juice, lending it a soft and earthy sweetness, while the top layer consists of coconut milk and rice flour, creating a creamy, slightly savory finish. Natural pandan and coconut ingredients offer essential nutrients like fiber and healthy fats, but kuih talam is also high in refined sugars, which can contribute to excessive calorie intake if consumed excessively. This dessert is gluten-free, appealing to those with dietary restrictions, but its richness should be enjoyed in moderation due to its calorie density. Kuih Talam beautifully represents Malaysia’s culinary tradition through balanced flavors and its vibrant green-and-white layers.
