Qumbe (East African Coconut Candy)

The Qumbe is a popular sweet coconut candy within East Africa, originated from Somalia and quickly spread into the Eastern Region of Africa. It is served after dinner and enjoyed by many within the region. It’s sometimes difficult to find the recipe needed for it outside of East Africa, hence a few people have made certain adjustments to it but the main candy is enjoyed in the East.
