Catella cake originates from Japan. It is a mix of whipped egg whites and the sweet taste of honey. The cake isn’t particularly moist. Some would actually say it was dry, but what we do know is that it goes fantastically with a coffee.

You’ll definitely need sweet rice flour and roasted soybean powder, both of which can be bought at Asian supermarkets. They are slightly chewy and really sweet.

Kulfi is an Asian dessert that is consumed throughout India and up into Central Asia. A kulfi is an ice cream made from condensed milk before being garnished with Asian spices, such as cardamom and saffron.

We are always a fan of no-bake dessert recipes. When they look and taste as good as this, then it is easy to see why. The bulk of the recipe is made almost entirely from sesame seeds, so make sure that you buy a big bag.

You may be surprised to learn that most of these desserts can be made with regular store-bought ingredients. If you are struggling, most Asian stores will be able to point you in the right direction. We think it is amazing that many use the same flavors as what we’d consider ‘regular’ desserts.
