Believe it or not, but that blue color to the left is all natural, no blue number five here. This delicious coconut rice bar tastes like oatmeal with a caramel coconut layer. Sweetened by palmsugar it has the most refreshing sweetness without losing the salty contrast. This treat happens to come in many colors, pink, yellow, and green, but this blue is my favorite.
So where does it come from already
Well, in an old garage that's down a little alley in Melaka, there are a couple old woman who take the beautiful blue out of the flowers that grow in the street. It's not just how they take the color that makes this place amazing. Their garage is stocked with durian caramels, little malaysian cookies and enough of these bars that even our bus of hungry cooks would get sick on them.
Maybe next time you're thinking about eating that blue raspberry candy that's colored with artificial who-knows-what, you can think of the real malaysian blue and boycott these sorry impressionists.
