- How to make Caribbean style coconut sugar cake, using a traditional recipe form Trinidad and Tobago. Using grated or dessicated coconut, flavored with ginger, bay leaves and and essence, this wonderful Caribbean coconut treat is a wonderful dessert or snack for the kids.
I remember making these and putting them to dry on banana leaves... Wow. I feel old... Here's a little tip, though: Leave the essence, vanilla, extracts, whatever, till the end. Add it just a couple minutes before it's done. You'll get a much stronger flavour and aroma.
My mother used to make these for me and I'd eat them after school! I want to learn how to make them for my kids for when they come home from school too! :)
Thank God for Caribbean men that can cook!
Hey there Chris, I have been watching a few of your videos and just wanted to let you know that I really do appreciate your videos as they bring back allot of memories of when our mom used to cook for us, this was back when we used to live in Tobago, we left there in 1979 and moved to California , I miss allot of your different recipes as our mom made them for us...
Thank you Chris, You Rock,

Adapted this recipe with vanilla essence and Angostura Bitters. Came out better than expected! The ginger really helps the Bitters not stand out. Gonna serve the snack to my Japanese co-workers tomorrow. Thanks for the demonstration! 👍
Just made this, but without the coloring. Got a thumbs up in the preliminary taste test. Thanks so much for sharing. It was very easy to follow. Can't wait to see how it turns out after it sets.
Chris my brother thank you soon much for this , reliving my childhood tears in my eyes. Peace😓
I love this
i have a project in school and everyone liked it wow this was a hit
Thank you so much for this channel! I've been trying to get a recipe close enough to my grandmother's from Tortola, British Virgin Islands. Perfect!
My mom-in-law grates the coconut so small/smooth, the cakes are like ice-cream! (Nature Isle
of Dominica)..love it Chris!
These traditional classics beat these modern day machine made sweets by a looooong shot. Simple but so much more flavour and delight.. This one takes me back to primary school days when you used to hide and eat behind the desk then put on a straight face for de teacher. The one and only sugar cake.
This is good to know how to use natural coconut and packed coconut as not always easy to get raw coconut ✅🇹🇹🥰
WOW! It been a while. Cant wait to try this recipe next weekend. Thank you for making me go home again.
Thanks my bredda..my manager asked me to make some jamaican desserts for a charity cause since im a cook at home kinda guy and the first thing came to mind was drops and grater cake and dis looks way easy...A+

Hi chris! I love your coconut sugar cakes! In grenada we made pink and white together.we add milk, cinnamon, ginger, and rose essence etc.very nice recipe

Chris, that is a special treat that does remind me if my childhood when mum made some. Fabulous! The food colouring idea is a great one very festive ☆
I am from Trinidad, I always make this..so yummy !!

I have not eaten this sugar cake in soooooooooooo long .thanks for sharing God's Wylling I will try this.
YUMMY,I can't wait to make it!!! Thank u so much! 😋😋
Love to watch your cooking skills leanred to do a lot of little foods done easy
Thanks. I tried it a couple times. It works well, but I had to increase the water a bit and not reduce the sugar as much to keep it from being just crumbles in the end. Also, instead of mixed essence, I used vanilla, lime, and a bit of orange liqueur. It's not orthodox I know but it still brings back the memories and it tastes really good.
I haven't tried this since i was a kid at school😍Am making it. I had some fresh from Jamaica my school friend had brought back
me an my wife enjoy watching this
This bring back sweet memories of my mom making sugar cake....
I think I'm gonna try it..

Good cook you are for sure
Great video Chris, brings back memories
made mine came out perfect.....couldnt find food coloring lol....either way mad props from delaware
I love Sugar cake and now I know how to make it kinda
How can you people keep saying he is wrong? I don't make sugar cakes like he does but at the same time I don't think everyone in Barbados makes sugar cake like me. Even if you people saying he is wrong are from Trinidad, like he is, he's allowed his own style. If food could only be prepared one way and taste one way, it would be a very boring and most of us would just eat to live.
Thank you you saved me!
Yes definitely, and that way you get colour without having to add any food colouring.
Tablet we call it in Dominica. with pieces of ginger too..that good
wii boy
Nice - I have to do this soon!
Great, love it
Thank you for showing this receipe
Hi Chris I tried the coconut sugar cake recipe today and it was very tasty,I never put ginger or bay leaf.I w
Looks good, go on like that
Thanks for the video. Keep up the good work!!!

I always like sugar cake in Jamaica we call it pink on top we do it with white and colored coconut lots of ginger to one taste can I get one
First I must say I love all your videos I made several of the dishes however I would like you to make
Wow! I have not had sugar cakes since I was a child. My grandmother used to make them. But hers was brown... She probably used brown sugar instead of white...
