Bika ambon is a traditional snack often mistaken to originate from Maluku. Actually, bika ambon is a traditional cake native to Medan, North Sumatra. Bika Ambon is even known as a must-buy souvenir when visiting Medan.
History of Bika Ambon
There are many stories circulating about the origin of bika ambon. Some say, this cake is named bika ambon because the first place where this cake was sold and became popular was at the intersection of Ambon Sei Kera Medan Street.
However, there is another version stating that in the past, there was a region called Amplas which was divided into two areas, west and east of the river. On the west side of the river, there was a latex processing factory, while on the east side, there were workers’ settlements and tobacco and cocoa plantations.
Then, there was a Javanese oyanggrant worker who made the cake and sold it in Medan. Apparently, the cake was very well-liked by the Dutch. This opportunity was then seized by Chinese merchants to market the cake.
Eventually, the cake business flourished and was then named bika ambon, derived from the name Bika “Amplas-Kebon”.
