Bakpia pathok

Okay, so bakpia pathok is a special snack from Indonesia. It's like a small cake that is filled with sweet or savory ingredients, like chocolate or green beans.

Imagine if you have a small piece of bread and you put some filling inside, like a sandwich. That's what it's like! But instead of bread, you have a thin layer of dough made from wheat flour, sugar, and oil.

People in Indonesia really love bakpia pathok, especially in the city of Yogyakarta where it originated. They even have special shops called bakpia pathok shops that sell only this snack!

So the next time you visit Indonesia, don't forget to try some bakpia pathok and see why it's so popular!
