Sapin-sapin

(Sapin sapin, Filipino Layered Rice Cake)

The colorful sapin-sapin is a unique Filipino rice cake. It is made with a simple batter of rice and coconut milk, and usually consists of three separate layers which are tinted and flavored with different colors and aromas. The most popular combination consists of a yellow bottom layer infused with jackfruit, the plain white middle layer, and the vibrant purple top blended with sweet yams.


After it is steamed and before serving, the cake is usually garnished with toasted coconut flakes or latik coconut curds.
