What are tikoy rolls<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Tikoy is a type of Chinese delicacy made from glutinous rice flour. Also called nian gao or year cake, it's traditionally eaten during the Chinese New Year for good luck and prosperity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Tikoy Rolls, on the other hand, are a leveled-up version wherein the sticky rice cake is rolled around a choice of fillings and coated in ground peanuts. They were made popular in the Philippines by Chinese bakeries like Eng Bee Tin and are sold in a variety of local flavors such as pandan and purple yam.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
