water cake?

Hi everyone, apparently the new hotness in weird foods is a water cake?

According to the video it's just water and agar heated to some temperature and then chilled. Seems simple enough, with a bit of experimentation can figure out the water:agar ratio and heating temp. But my question is how much do you think the type of water affects the outcome? Thinking of trying with coconut water or something.

Thanks!

I doubt the type of water had much to do, If anything, with the outcome. Agar creates a gel that is similar to gelatin, however it's vegan and can resist melting even when warm. I have seen water, fruit juice, bloody mary, milk bases, etc. You should be good to go.

I've had it before. It's exceedingly mediocre.

I've seen it before but never tried it. Here is a video of someone making it in Japan. They use agar gum and sugar with water, they don't give specific measurements but I don't think it would be to difficult to replicate.

thanks for the feedback everyone! I'm not expecting it to be spectacular but maybe worth a try.
