Sugee cake
Sugee cake is a cake made of semolina and almonds, creamed butter, eggs, and brandy, and optionally covered in marzipan and royal icing.[1][2] The cake is typically baked during festive occasions and holidays like Christmas,[3] by members of the Eurasian community in Malaysia and Singapore.[2] The word sugee has its origins in Hindustani word for 'semolina' (सूजी).
