Bolen Pisang

Bolen Pisang it's mean Banana Pastry.

I know and eats Bolen Pisang from one cake shop from Bandung (West Java).

This bolen pisang has a crunchy layer combined with bananas as well as cheese or chocolate. The dressing is a bit time consuming, but the finished product is very comparable to the time needed. The crunchy texture of the skin that binds the sweet banana flavor and the legitimate cheese / chocolate will feel like it fits together in one bite.

Bolen Pisang it's not originally from Indonesia. This snack was influenced by western food (Dutch) which had occupied Indonesia at the time. 

The main star of Bolen Pisang is Banana which grows very fertile in Indonesia. While other ingredients are also very easy to find here.
Bananas that are used generally are plantains, which have a distinctive sweet taste, which is also very easy to find in traditional markets or modern markets in here.
