Product description

Coóc Mò cake is a traditional, rustic specialty of the Tay and Nung ethnic groups in Cao Bang and other northern mountainous provinces. Its name means "buffalo horn" because its pointed shape resembles a buffalo horn. Made from fragrant, sticky upland glutinous rice, wrapped in banana/dong leaves, and boiled until cooked, it has a sweet, nutty flavor and a rich aroma of fresh glutinous rice. It is often eaten with sesame salt or sugar, symbolizing good fortune and a bountiful harvest. It is also a cherished childhood treat associated with festivals such as the first birthday celebration and the new rice harvest festival.
