If you enjoy sticky rice then this is a beautiful dessert with the tropical flavours of pineapple and mint. Mango goes beautifully too for a change.

This was such an interesting, yummy dessert. The flavours of the pineapple and lime are really fresh and the crunch of the macadamia nuts really compliment. Felt like I was on a tropical island. Recommend!
I’m pleased you enjoyed it Tania! 🙂
Beautiful recipe which leaves you wanting more but makes such a big lot, that you can (if you are quick before the family notices). We added fresh mango as well to this easy dessert.
Oh seasonal Mango! Sounds awesome Lisa!
Is sticky rice another name for glutinous rice?
yes it sure is Beth. Enjoy! 🙂
