History


Pasaana Battercakes were served at the Aki-Aki Festival of the Ancestors on Pasaana.

Pasaana Battercakes were served at the Aki-Aki Festival of the Ancestors on Pasaana.

Pasaana Battercakes were served at the Festival of the Ancestors thrown by the Aki-Aki species on the Expansion Region planet Pasaana in 35 ABY. Attendees of the festival later told the Artiodac chef Strono Tuggs that the battercakes had been the best food on offer at the festival by far.

Tuggs had hoped to attend the festival himself as part of a culinary tour of the galaxy that he took between 34 ABY and 35 ABY, but the timing did not work out, so based on the reviews he had received, he included a recipe for the battercakes in his third cookbook, The Ultimate Cookbook, which was published in 35 ABY. In the book, he suggested pairing the cakes with Dhanduese Drums on top for a great flavor combination and promised that he would send out battercakes to help people celebrate during the next Festival of the Ancestors, as the event occurred every forty-two years.
