What a coincidence. I was craving for one for merienda yesterday. I even mistook the pasingaw on our dining table for cassava cake to my disappointment. I’ve never seen cassava served that big. I usually see it in small servings. That looks so yummy. I like it next to putong puti and egg pie.

Hi fhaye. Cassava flour is not a good substitute since it will make the texture different.
ok..thanks po ulit…God Bless!

It’s my pleasure Ces. Thanks for commenting
maradesa, I used sharp cheddar cheese. If you want the top to brown, try the broil option in your oven – but makes sure to check it once in a while so that it wont burn.
Hi there, do you guys have printable version of all your recipes?
Thanks, Rovi
thank u kuya for a very yummy n nice recipe, cant believe i manage to cook a dessert coz its always a desaster when doing any dessert. keep it coming kuya n hope you dont get tired sharing ur food knowledge,,
Nice to hear from you elaine. Since you are in the Philippines, I suggest that you use fresh cassava instead (just grate it manually). Its better compared to the packaged ones.
Hi, there! Your cassava cake recipe is realllllyyyy yummy! My husband and kids truly love it! I’ve learned so many recipes from yor website and I was so happy I found the ultimate food website I was looking for ever since! Marami na rin akong nakitang websites sa internet but yours is just perfect. Maganda pa kasi nilalagyan mo ng mga useful info which is actually good. And even in the actual process, sinasabi mo ang mga helpful tips for healthy cooking. Thank you so much for sharing your recipes. Keep it up and more power!
P.S. Can you please post a (simple) recipe for sens rival? TYVM!
Hi Sir, Ano po pagkakaiba ng Lard or Shorthening sa Oil or butter na nilalagay sa pandesal or siopao?
Hi Gud Day!
As ko lang po kung pde po bang gamit ko sa cassava eh.. un cassava flour??
thanks more power po!
kuya tanong ko lang po kung ano size nung condensed at tska evaporated milk anong ml?
i just made this and it turned out great! next time though, ill have to squeeze-out the excess water from the frozen grated cassava…lol =) thank you kuya!
p.s. for the batter, did you mean, 1/2 “cup” evaporated milk or 1/2 “can” evaporated milk?” since, you used a measuring cup for the evaporated milk and not the condensed milk…idk?
It is “can” joycebinct, the cup is just a way for me to measure if I already used-up half of the can’s content (there is a step that I didn’t show in the video where I added more evap to use-up 1/2 can). Hope that this satisfied your curiosity.
kuya, maasim ba tlga yung cassava?kulay yellow kasi yung nbili naming cassava d2.yung gnwa ko maasim tpos mlagkit,gnun b tlga yun?thanks!
mhadz, dapat di maasim. Frozen ba ang nabili mo? Please try to check the expiration date.
I wish I can help you with that but the information that you need should be in the users manual. Please try to check it.

Don’t worry orville, all the recipes here are tested. Also, I am using Fahrenheit unit as indicated. This should be around 177 degrees Celsius.

I believe not, Romela. Sharp cheddar works best for me.
