Num Ansorm is one of Cambodia’s most beloved and symbolic traditional cakes. It is made from sticky rice (glutinous rice) filled with either banana (sweet version) or pork and mung beans (savory version), wrapped in banana leaves, and then steamed or boiled until fragrant and flavorful.

This cake is more than just food — it carries deep cultural and spiritual meaning. Num Ansorm is often prepared and shared during Khmer New Year, Pchum Ben, and wedding ceremonies as a way to honor ancestors and bring blessings to the family.

The long cylindrical shape of Num Ansorm represents unity, family bonding, and prosperity. It is also considered a symbol of gratitude to parents and elders in Khmer tradition.

Today, Num Ansorm remains a heritage delicacy, loved by Cambodians of all ages, connecting the present with the traditions of the past.
