Kuih Tayap (16 February 2013)


Kuih Tayap, also called Kuih Ketayap and Kuih Dadar is a Nyonya-style crepe that is rolled up and filled with shaved coconut. It is often nicknamed the Nyonya Baby Bolster.

Kuih Tayap is filled with shaved or grated coconut that is sweetened with palm sugar (gula melaka). The skin is coloured green using pandan juice. Kuih Tayap is popularly taken at tea time in many Nyonya households. My wife is quite good at making this particular pastry. Here's the recipe on how to do it.

About this website



Hello and thanks for reading this page. My name is Timothy and my hobby is in describing places so that I can share the information with the general public. My website has become the go to site for a lot of people including students, teachers, journalists, etc. whenever they seek information on places, particularly those in Malaysia and Singapore. I have been doing this since 5 January 2003, for over twenty years already. You can read about me at Discover Timothy. By now I have compiled information on thousands of places, mostly in Peninsular Malaysia and Singapore, and I continue to add more almost every day. My goal is to describe every street in every town in Malaysia and Singapore.
