Hi Matthew, made the sugar cakes on Friday! They are the best I have ever made and I let them (15) sit on a plate to harden up which they have and the texture is even better today. Thanks again for your recipe. Will continue to make it…now I just have to watch my blood sugar levels…lol Keep up the excellent vlogs.
@@matthewsguyanesecooking4601 Matthew. First I must compliment your version ofsugar cake but as a Guyanese i have seen anyone parch the coconut and add milk. Parching would make it dry, that's why you are adding milk. There us brown sugar cake, no coloring and coconut ice, the colored ones like pink and white, etc when the back is removed from the coconut, white sugar and clear essence is used.
Matthew's Guyanese Cooking my method is the same as Natasha.I was wondering that if parching would affect the natural coconut taste.Happy thanksgiving Matthew to you and your family
Hi Matthew, Have you ever try putting your sugarcakes on banana leaves? It gives out another flavor to it. It's a longtime thing when people could not afford to buy baking utensils.
I enjoy your recipes for suger cake it was very simple and understanding . Please if it's possible for you to do a recipe for Guyana Fudge please help Thank you and keep up the good work so far I enjoy working with your recipes . Once again thank you.
Hi Matthew! Your recipe looks great and I would like to make this for our son Matthew who is in the Navy. I will be shipping this to him. I was wondering if it would be ok to place in a box for shipment. It will probably be about a month before my son receives it. Your thoughts?
Any of the Indian stores on Liberty usually have the powder. I don't recommend going out during these times though. You can buy gel coloring online which works well too. You can use liquid but be careful because it can get bitter
Sabrina Madray You can use the package one. You may have to lessen the sugar if the package one is sweetened though. You can find it at any Indian or West Indian Store.
You have to keep boiling it until it is almost dry so this way it doesnt stay soft. It takes practice. I'm gonna come up with some more tips to help people with this.
I had same problem. Taste great but soft. I did not continue mixing it around after I took off fire so I think that’s the issue. The finishing technique is similar to fudge.
Awesome matthew. Gonna try this for sure. Thanks to you I saw this recipe, and how to go about making it.
Love your method in making this! Going to try it today!

Wow Matt your recipes are always easy to follow

So far the best recipe. Looks delicious. Not many people patch their coconut. Definitely Guyanese style. I will try it.
camille ramrattan Thank you! Parching is a must. It's definitely a step that many miss.

I make my sugar cake way differently but I am willing to try it your way
There are many different ways of making it. I am interested in learning how you make it. If you try it let me know how it comes out.
Matthew's Guyanese Cooking my method is the same as Natasha.I was wondering that if parching would affect the natural coconut taste.Happy thanksgiving Matthew to you and your family
The parching actually brings out the coconut taste and changes the texture of the coconut a bit. Have a happy thanksgiving too!
Yes, mine is different. I don’t mind trying another method. Thanks for sharing
Great recipe M!

Thanks for watching.
Do you have the recipe for brown fudge?
I will try to do one soon.
I wonder what the temperature would be when the mixture is ready to be spooned out?
I have never gotten that technical with it. The longer you boil it the more crystallized it will get
Hi Matthew, Have you ever try putting your sugarcakes on banana leaves?
It gives out another flavor to it.
It's a longtime thing when people could not afford to buy baking utensils.
I have not because I usually don't have access to the banana leaves
Matthew, can I use brown sugar instead of white? If so, any alterations to the ingredients and amounts?
Yes you can use brown. They may come out chewier because of the molasses in the brown sugar. No difference.
@@matthewsguyanesecooking4601 thank you!

can i use brown sugar instead of white sugar?
fazia zaman Yes. But the brown sugar will be a little harder to crystallize.
thanks for the advice. Can you make Guyanese spinach ?
fazia zaman Will do. Like with American spinach or some other kind in particular?
american spinach :)
fazia zaman Okay will do!
I would love to see your recipe for Pot Roasted chicken. Thanks

Leotha King Thank you very much! Its the Caldero brand pot.
Hi Matthew! Your recipe looks great and I would like to make this for our son Matthew who is in the Navy. I will be shipping this to him. I was wondering if it would be ok to place in a box for shipment. It will probably be about a month before my son receives it. Your thoughts?
Yes you can put them in a zip lock or Tupperware. And it should ship well. You can individually wrap them in plastic wrap
Can u add the coconut at the end
You can try that out

Bonham Carter Of course it can. Thanks for watching!
Matthew's Guyanese Cooking you're most welcome!
Hey Matthew, where in NY can I get the red coloring for the sugar cake?
Any of the Indian stores on Liberty usually have the powder. I don't recommend going out during these times though. You can buy gel coloring online which works well too. You can use liquid but be careful because it can get bitter
@@matthewsguyanesecooking4601 thank you Matthew
I will try to make this minus the milk. I have seen brown sugar with water and spices reduced to a candy paste the I will put toasted coconut in.
Hey can you please make and provide a recipe for multani/ mannish water ?
Cabby Oh wow. That is really old school. I will try my best.
Can I used package coconut and where did you get the powder food coloring
Sabrina Madray You can use the package one. You may have to lessen the sugar if the package one is sweetened though. You can find it at any Indian or West Indian Store.
Or at a bulk or health food store
Perfect!
On your next cooking show. Plz make some ladoo. Thank you
Kevin Mahadeo Will do!
