Pandan Pichi-Pichi
Pandan Pichi-Pichi is a fragrant twist on the conventional Filipino dessert, made from cassava, infused with the candy and fragrant essence of pandan leaves. Its chewy, jelly-like texture is stronger by means of the herbal green hue of pandan, giving it an awesome appearance and flavor. Topped with a sprinkle of grated coconut or cheese, this delicacy gives a tropical flavor that is light, yet especially satisfying. Each chunk includes the essence of pandan, a key component in Southeast Asian desserts
