Butuan Sweet Life

What could be a better way of describing Butuan’s relaxing sweet life than its wide array of traditional food and delicacies. From exotic spicy kinilaw to this colorful display of desserts. Traditional delicacies here are mostly carbohydrate based and is usually eaten after a full meal or during meriendas… or maybe just anytime as long as that sweet tooth craves for more.

Most of them are made from mashed root crops, mixed with gata (coconut milk) and latik (thick sugary syrup) topped by either grated cheese or coconut meat.
