Cassava Cake is a beloved dessert that reflects the heart of Caymanian culture. While every family has their own twist on this beloved treat, the traditional recipe includes coconut milk, which is boiled and blended with brown sugar, butter, and spices to create a moist, sticky, and flavorful cake.
