White King Puto 400g

White King Puto brings a soft, steamed Filipino rice cake to your kitchen

Puto is one of the gentlest Filipino treats, a steamed rice cake with a soft, springy bite and just enough sweetness to make it moreish. White King's mix takes the fuss out of getting the texture right, so you end up with that light, airy result every time rather than something dense or gummy. It suits a special occasion table as easily as an everyday snack, and it is a lovely introduction to Filipino products if you have never tried it before.

How to steam perfect puto at home

Blend the mix with water and sugar until smooth, then pour into greased puto moulds and steam for around 15 to 20 minutes, until the surface turns shiny and springs back when pressed. A brush of butter or margarine on top finishes it off nicely. For a savoury twist, try puto pao with a spoonful of corned beef folded into the centre before steaming. Serve it alongside other treats from our dessert collection, or stock up on the basics from our flour range for your next baking session.
