My Duc Thuy Tien Palm Cake - a typical Vietnamese dish

Palm cake is one of the delicious specialties you must try when traveling to An Giang, Vietnam. The golden, fatty cake makes everyone nod in approval.

As one of the traditional cakes that has existed for a long time in My Duc commune, My Duc palm cake has created a reputation for its soft, sweet, and delicious flavor. Currently, My Duc palm cake is being developed and produced by My Duc Thuy Tien Palm Cake Facility and is completing the dossier to submit to the competent authority for certification as an OCOP product.

The process of making a palm cake goes through many stages. In the past, my family produced it manually, so the number of cakes made was not much. Now, the facility has invested in additional machines to support the kneading and mixing of dough, so the number of cakes made is larger. Every day, my family supplies over 100 cakes according to orders. If we produce at full capacity, we can produce about 500 cakes.

To make delicious palm cakes, the cake dough must be mixed and prepared in advance according to the correct time and recipe. Then, put it in the steamer, after about 10 minutes of steaming, continue to add enough flour, so that when the cake is cooked, it has a round, eye-catching shape.

When the steamed rice cake is brought out to the shelf, add coconut milk while the cake is still hot. When the milk is absorbed and mixed into the cake dough, it will be boxed and delivered to customers throughout Chau Phu district and provinces and cities: Ho Chi Minh, Binh Duong, Tay Ninh, Dong Nai, etc.

Thuy Tien's palm sugar cake focuses on using ingredients from the province, with clear origins. A perfect palm sugar cake must be cooked at the right temperature and for the right amount of time. When cooked, the cake must be fluffy, with a light sweetness and the natural yellow color of palm sugar, mixed with the richness of coconut milk.

Palm cake, a specialty that makes An Giang cuisine famous. In particular, the selection of ingredients is very important. If you use ingredients that are not guaranteed or of poor quality, the cake will be tough, not rise, and sour.
