Fuji cake

This cake is evocative of a green mountain covered with snow. Mt. Fuji comes the closest in the Vietnamese consciousness, so it became known as "Phu Si" cake (Vietnam's phonetical term for Fuji). It is purely a Vietnamese creation using ingredients and cookware commonly found in a Viet kitchen. (recipe from VansKitchen youtube video).

 

This is a basic chiffon cake, steamed instead of baked, covered with a fragrant pandan-coconut pastry cream and sprinkled coconut flakes. Happy 21.5 birthday, little brother!
