Taripang is a traditional cake originating from South Sulawesi (Sulsel) which is synonymous with its sweet and savory taste. Apart from being sweet and savory, this cake also has a crunchy texture when you first bite it. This is because the taripang is coated with melted brown sugar that has dried. The inside of the Taripang has a fibrous and chewy texture because it is made with a mixture of glutinous rice flour and grated coconut.
