More than sweetness
Gula melaka has a distinctive flavour of its own. Used with care, it adds depth instead of dominating the cake.
Caramel-like depth
How D24 Pairs with Gula Melaka
Gula melaka supports the aromatic pandan and creamy D24 with a deeper flavour rather than simply adding sweetness.
From Amour Desserts · Baking in Melbourne since 2015
Working with pandan
Pandan brings fragrance, gula melaka adds a darker note and D24 provides the creamy fruit filling.
Keeping the style balanced
Our less-sweet approach is important here because the three flavours should remain distinct rather than merging into sugar.
- Caramel-like depth.
- Supports pandan.
- D24 remains central.
