Kuih Lapis Gula Melaka
I would like to share with you one of the traditional Kuih that I have loved since I was a child – Kuih Lapis (Steamed Layered Rice Cake), which is sold in the market with beautiful colors and based on coconut milk flavor.

Temperature of Steaming Kuih Lapis
The preparation materials and methods of this kuih are quite simple. Just need to be patient and repeat the same production process.
