Layered cake..sarawak style


I developed a liking for Kek Lapis Sarawak a while back. It's not too sweet, and the plus point is, it looks very nice. The mechanics of making it makes it even more precious to have. There was a booth at Hartamas where you could order it for a price. And oh boy, what a price it was. For raya, two friends gave me kek lapis. Correction three friends gave me kek lapis. Thank you:) I certainly enjoyed eating it as much as wondering how many hours went into making this intricate cake.


ps apologies for not blogging. Have been diverted to facebook for a while. It's addictive. But I'm BACK

  1. Looks yummy! Is the texture different from the typical Indonesian layer cake? Appears more spongy and with ?pandan flavour? Beware it has lots of egg yolks in it. A friend used to make it, and it does take a lot of time and effort.

  2. dobbs: My mum makes yummy kek lapis. Tedious effort. I think the space between my buttocks and waist has expanded exponentially since raya. DAMM
