Jamaican bulla cakes are small loaves that are flat, round, and sometimes dark-colored or light-colored.

Traditionally, bulla is a popular treat for schoolchildren, often paired with milk or cherry malt.

As a traditional food of Jamaica, the bulla cake has been considered an emblem related to development on the island nation.
