The real talk

Akok is small and innocent looking, like a little flower shaped cake. But it is egg, coconut milk, and palm sugar baked together, so each piece is about 90 calories of rich sweet custard. Two pieces with your kopi is 180.

It is not the worst thing, it is baked so there is no frying oil, and the egg gives it a touch of protein. But the palm sugar and coconut milk mean it is denser than the size suggests. Enjoy two, do not sit there finishing the whole tray lah.
