Kaya Jam

Kaya, a delectable coconut jam made with coconut milk, sugar, eggs, and pandan, is well-loved in Singapore, Malaysia, and Indonesia. This rich, creamy jam is commonly spread on toast and enjoyed with a cup of kopi (coffee) or teh (tea) at home or at coffee shops across the island. The most famous of these coffee shops is Ya Kun Kaya Toast, both for its ubiquity and for its highly rated product. Its kaya jam is priced a little higher (and tastes noticeably better) than generic ones in supermarkets. Similarly priced compatriots/competitors include kayas from Killiney Kopitiam, Chin Mee Chin Confectionery, and Toast Box, which also garner rave reviews.
