Tikoy for Media Noche served in color-coded wishes for the New Year

For those craving for a dessert that would bring good fortune this coming Media Noche on New Year’s Eve, there is a tikoy (sweet, sticky rice cake) that its creators in Calasiao, Pangasinan claim will help you "level up" in finances and love.

According to a Saksi report on Monday, the colorful tikoy is ready-to-eat and comes in various flavors, where each color corresponds to a specific wish for the new year.

For example, the ube flavor is for those hoping to be rich while the strawberry flavor is for those seeking love in 2025.

White tikoy corresponds to peace, while langka and pandan flavors are for those wishing for wisdom and good health, respectively. —Mariel Celine Serquiña/RF, GMA Integrated News
