Klepon is a popular traditional Indonesian snack consisting of small green balls made from glutinous rice flour; they are filled with liquid palm sugar and coated in grated coconut. Upon biting into one, the treat delivers a distinctive, surprising sensation as the liquid palm sugar inside instantly melts and bursts in the mouth.
When I was a kid, my mom often bought it for me. I like it so much. Now sometime I still enjoy the food.

@nawala123 I can only find them in the morning, and it's first come, first served.

I like everything that's made of glutinous rice. And I think I'm going to love this snack of yours. Hope I could try it someday.
