One of our neighbors shared their 'palitaw' or sweetened rice cake with us. I am grateful that they gave us something for a good snack today. It is described as 'sticky rice dumplings with coconut and toasted sesame seeds.' Do you like having snack in siesta time? Have you tried this kind of rice cake? Image Credit: Shavkat

Your rice cake appears to be special. We don't have similar one but we have number of snacks prepared from rice.

I hope you can share some of the local snacks in your country. It is not that sweet for me.

That looks delicious and the very description of it sounds tempting

It must be very healthy with sesame seeds.

It is easy to prepare the ingredients and do it. You just need to be patient in doing it.
