Colourful Getuk Ideas for Your Café
Revamp this simple Javanese dish and make it your café’s next hit.
Getuk may go back a long time in Javanese history, but there’s no need for it to be old-fashioned! A remake can be really popular, especially when displayed in a modern café or restaurant. Here are some tips to make getuk your café’s next hit.
Make more colourful getuk
Usually, getuk comes in standard colours that are not very vibrant. Why don’t you try something new such as purple, orange, or even a rainbow? The attractive new colours might entice diners to upload and share photos of your food on social media. Remember to use food-grade dye!
Create new shapes
Getuk sold in the market basically look the same. Inject some creativity by trying new shapes such as rolls or hearts for example. A new shape might just put getuk in a different, better light in the mind of your diner.
Add tempting aroma
A unique aroma can be very tempting. So, use a scent that can tempt your customers like pandan or vanilla. If possible, make your own unique aroma that complements your getuk.
Try new combinations
Innovation in the culinary business is a must. You can combine getuk with new ingredients to create new tastes and flavours. For instance, make mocha getuk or serve it with pieces of strawberries or blueberry jam.
