Kuih Bulu

Kuih Bulu is also known as Kuih Bahulu. Its a favorite among Malaysians especially during Chinese New Year or Hari Raya. During the festive season, you will find this kuih being sold in the wet markets.

Kuih Bulu is like Madeleine cakes in France. It's soft, spongy, eggy and has a slightly dry texture and goes fantastically with a nice cup of hot coffee.

This little cakes comes in many different shapes and sizes. Traditional is it baked on a copper mold using charcoal fire. Today, we can bake it in an oven.

I decided to make Kuih Bulu recently, as the sweet aroma of the little cakes fill my kitchen, I am brought back to the days when I was younger and would watch my ah ma make them. They were definitely my favorite indulgence as a child and even till today.
