Purple Sticky Rice Snack - Can Tho
© February 14 2007, Uncornered Market
In the alley just beside our hotel, we found a woman making sticky rice snacks - purple and black sticky rice, coconut, sugar and some type of soy or coconut milk topping all wrapped in a rice paper. We were enjoying our snack immensely, snapping photos of it, when everyone around us started teaching us the name of the snack (and other phrases) in Vietnamese. Of course, unable to navigate the tones, we mauled their language and amused the whole street with our futile attempts.

We bought this sticky rice off the streets in Can Tho so we don't know the recipe. It's some combination of purple sticky rice, black sticky rice, sugar, grated coconut, some type of butter/soy, and wrapped with rice paper. Sorry I can't help with a more detailed recipe!
