About Palm sugar cake

Palm sugar cake, a traditional dessert originating from Southeast Asian cuisines, is crafted primarily from palm sugar, coconut milk, rice flour, and eggs. Known for its rich, caramel-like sweetness and soft, sponge-like texture, the cake is often steamed rather than baked, preserving its moistness and unique flavor. Palm sugar, the key ingredient, is a natural sweetener derived from the sap of palm trees and provides essential minerals like potassium and iron. While palm sugar has a lower glycemic index compared to refined sugar, the cake's overall sugar content can still be high, making it best enjoyed in moderation. Coconut milk contributes beneficial fats and a creamy richness, but also adds calories. Popular in countries such as Indonesia, Malaysia, and Thailand, palm sugar cake is celebrated for its simple preparation and unique blend of naturally derived ingredients.
