Kutsinta is one of the simplest kakanin in the Philippines. It’s also very easy to find in the markets or malls. It’s that brown cupcake like kakanin that’s sold alongside puto or suman. It is basically comprised of flour, sugar, annatto powder and lye water. They are commonly eaten with grated coconut.

2.Pichi-pichi

If you see a light yellow kakanin coated in grated coconut, then that is the Pichi-pichi. It’s made from combining grated cassava and sugar. It’s very light, and more often than not, it’s quite addicting to eat. They often sell it in groups of 6s or 12s and they surely are worth every penny.

3.Puto

Calasiao, Marikina and goldilocks are the best places to get puto. They’re round cupcake like kakanin made from rice flour mixed with coconut milk, and sugar. They are steamed for almost an hour and topped with sliced cheese. Puto is quite popularly paired with the classic Dinuguan. These two would always be a perfect meal combo. Puto is also quite big on birthdays and fiestas as they are served alongside classic fiesta dishes like the pancit.

  1. Suman

Made from glutinous rice, sugar coconut milk and wrapped in banana or buri leaf, these little neatly packed goodies are also quite popular. Whether you want to eat it as is, or pair it with a decent serving of sweet mangoes, they are definitely really good to eat. Some suman are already sweetened, while others don’t have a lot of sugar. Those wrapped in Buri leaves are quite sweet while those in banana leaf are not.
