Rijstcake, often referred to as rice cake, is a delightful treat originating from Dutch-Indonesian cuisine, where it’s known as "ketan." This dessert features glutinous rice as the main ingredient, often blended with coconut milk or shredded coconut for a rich, creamy texture and subtle sweetness. It is traditionally steamed or baked and can include added flavorings such as pandan leaves or vanilla. Though Rijstcake is gluten-free and provides sustained energy thanks to its complex carbohydrates, its nutritional balance depends heavily on preparation. Some versions contain high amounts of sugar and saturated fats from coconut milk, which can be calorie-dense. It’s also relatively low in protein and fiber. Rijstcake is best enjoyed as an occasional indulgence rather than a daily snack. For a healthier twist, consider reducing added sugar or pairing it with fresh fruit for added nutrients.
