Dodol

This sweet, sticky treat is prepared with a base of coconut milk, jaggery, and rice flour. It is characterized by its dense, chewy texture, and is typically cut into squares, strips, or diamonds. Common in many countries in Southeast Asia, dodol is prepared for various religious festivals and comes in many flavor combinations such as vanilla, durian, mango, apple, pineapple, and coconut.

Although it is also factory-produced, homemade varieties are still common. The history and origin of dodol are vague, but it is considered to be one of the oldest desserts found in maritime Asia.
