Vitumbua are delicious East African rice cakes, delightfully crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. Made from a blend of rice flour, coconut milk, and a touch of sugar, these treats are often enhanced with sesame seeds for added flavor. Originating from coastal regions of Tanzania and Kenya, Vitumbua hold a special place in local cuisine. Rich in carbohydrates and naturally gluten-free, they provide a satisfying snack. While they can be indulgent due to their frying process, enjoying them in moderation allows you to savor the sweetness and cultural heritage of this tasty delicacy.
