About Sayongsong

Filipino cuisine

Sayongsong is a traditional Filipino steamed sweet rice cake distinctively served in cone-shaped banana leaves. It exists in Surigao del Norte and other areas of the Caraga Region of northeastern Mindanao, as well as in Bohol and the Eastern Visayas and the Bicol Region. In the Tagalog region, a similar cone-shaped rice cake is also called balisungsong, but unlike the sayongsong it is not sweetened and is eaten with savory dishes.
