Matamis na Bao is a true culinary treasure of the Philippines – a thick, dark brown preserve whose name alludes to its roots. Unlike lighter Asian kaya jams, Matamis na Bao is distinguished by its depth of color and flavor, thanks to the caramelization of brown sugar. The manufacturer, the Monika brand, specializes in supplying authentic Filipino products, guaranteeing fidelity to the traditional recipe, based on a minimal number of ingredients.

The key to the exceptional taste is the coconut cream (55%), which gives the jam incredible creaminess and an intense, natural coconut aroma. The slow-cooking process allows the brown sugar to develop notes of toffee and molasses, which perfectly balance the richness of the coconut. The result is a luxurious spread that is both sweet and rich in flavor.

In the Philippines, this jam is often served warm, which enhances its aroma and velvety texture. It is an essential part of breakfast, accompanying aromatic coffees and teas. Beyond its traditional use, Monika Matamis na Bao jam can become a creative ingredient in modern desserts, enriching the flavor of ice cream, rice puddings, or even serving as a sweet, exotic glaze for grilled fruits.

By choosing this product, you are reaching for a piece of Filipino culinary tradition. It is the perfect choice for anyone who appreciates simple yet intense flavors that transport you to the tropical climate of the archipelago. Discover the taste of true Filipino sweetness with Monika coconut jam.
