Description
A merchant at the Central Market in Phnom Penh, Cambodia is selling Cendol, a traditional dessert that appears in numerous variations throughout Southeast Asia and is a popular street food. Cendol, which also has many other name variations depending on the region, is basically a sweet, layered, iced dessert containing colorful jellies (made with tapioca, rice flour, or mung bean flour), coconut milk and palm sugar syrup. Additional toppings such as fruits, sweet beans, palm seeds, etc. can also be added. This colorful stall display really catches the eye, but unfortunately, I did not try this drink/soup dessert.
