Thai sweets to look for

Pandan, coconut milk and preserved fruit give Thai sweets several different textures. Compare the layered khanom chan, chilled-style lot chong in coconut milk and chewy preserved mango sold in sheets or rolls.

Thai sweets to look for

Why go

Khanom chan stacks pandan-flavoured rice-flour layers with coconut milk. Lot chong nam kathi uses pandan rice-flour strands in coconut milk, while mamuang kuan turns preserved mango into thin sweets. These examples make a dessert counter easier to read and offer a choice between layered, spooned and fruit-based sweets.

What to look for

  • Khanom chan has pandan-scented layers made with rice flour and coconut milk.
  • Lot chong nam kathi serves pandan rice-flour strands in coconut milk.
  • Mamuang kuan is preserved mango formed into flat sheets or rolls.
