Traditional Malay Kuih Muih cakes are pretty much a headliner of the Hari Raya Puasa celebration in Singapore. The dessert is quite chewy and moderately sweet. Although it comes in lots of varieties and bakers' creativity leads to the invention of new and new recipes, three most common kuih muih kinds include kuih lapis (or a layer cake), kuih tart and kuih kukus buah-buahan, which is a steamed cake with fruit bits nested inside.
Kuih Muih is a term used to describe a wide variety of traditional Peranakan and Malay snacks and desserts that are frequently found in Singapore and other regions of Malaysia and Indonesia. These delicious delights, which come in a variety of forms, colors, and flavors, are frequently consumed as snacks, desserts, or as a part of a bigger meal.
Where to taste Kuih Muih
Kuih cakes are made of coconut milk, starch, batter and a few more secret ingredients. Bakers love to experiment with colors and flavors. The best time to taste the desserts is during Hari Raya Puasa Festival, which falls on April 10th in 2024.
