HOW TO PREPARE SAPIN-SAPIN:
  • Grease a round cake pan with a non-stick cooking spray or brush with oil or top with banana leaves brushed with oil.
  • Mix all the ingredients together (except food colors and langka syrup) until well combined.
  • Divide the mixture equally into 3 parts.
  • Add a few drops of purple food coloring in one container and mix until a rich purple color is achieved. 
  • Add the langka syrup and few drops of yellow food coloring in the second container and mix them together. 
  • Prepare the steamer and bring the water to a boil.  Remember to cover the pan with cheese cloth before you start steaming.
​
​
  • Pour the yellow mixture in the baking pan, and steam for about 10 minutes or more until it firms up. Stick a toothpick and make sure it comes out clean.
  • Add the white mixture over the yellow mixture and steam for another 10-15 minutes or until it firms up. Stick a toothpick and make sure it comes out clean.
  • Add the ube mixture on top of the white mixture and steam for another 5 minutes or until it sets.
  • Carefully remove from steamer, and transfer to a serving plate. 
  • Slice the sapin-sapin using a knife brushed with oil to avoid sticking.
  • Top with Latik.
  • Enjoy! -​
***Note: If you'd like you can also start steaming the ube, then the white and then yellow mixture then invert after steaming or it's up to you on how you wanted the color to look like.

TO MAKE LATIK:
    • Heat coconut milk in a pan. Bring to a boil.
    • When it's almost dry, stir  until the milk turns into oil and leave a solid residue.
    • If it doesn't turn into oil or the brand that you use doesn't have a lot of oil, then you can add some vegetable oil.
    • ​
    • ***Store left over latik in the fridge and microwave when ready to use.
