Wajik or wajid, also known as pulut manis, is a traditional glutinous sweet made with rice, sugar and coconut milk.

[citation needed] The official Indonesian dictionary describes wajik as a confectionery made from a mixture of sticky rice, sugar, and coconut milk and cut into diamond shapes (rhombus or parallelogram).

[1]: 12 In Indonesia, several shapes of wajik include square, rectangular, rhombus, parallelogram, cylindrical, and rounded.

[4][5][1]: 11  Dishes and confectionaries with the combination of sticky rice and palm sugar have a long history in Java.

One of the earliest mentions of wajik is found in the Javanese manuscript Nawaruci, written by Empu Siwamurti and dated from the Majapahit period.

[12] There are also initiatives by some local makers to innovate the flavour by using additional ingredients such as durian, pumpkin, yam, cassava, and chempedak.

[5] It is made with steamed glutinous rice and further cooked in palm sugar, coconut milk, and pandan leaves.
