Vietnam

The Vietnamese candy bo bia keo nha consists of a bed of sweet and crunchy, yellowish-brown barley sugar bars, that easily crumble when bitten into; slivers of grated coconut; and some black sesame seeds.

 

Before serving, all of these ingredients are rolled into of a thin, crepe-like pancake (fig.), which is used as a wrapper, akin to the Vietnamese spring rolls.
