I’ve nicknamed these “crystal pudding” because of their glossy tops, but they’re actually soft and creamy Thai coconut pudding that has been turned upside down! This Thai dessert recipe is a perfect party dessert for many reasons: they’re vegan, gluten free, easy, no bake, and endlessly adaptable. They’re called tako in Thai, and also known as kuih tako in Malaysia, Indonesia and Singapore.
