Dear Aunty,
Lumut means seaweed in Malay right? Is this a seaweed cake?

Hi Yochana,
In Indonesian languange lumut means mildew.
If you see mildew is green and soft. Hope this help :)

Oh no wonder the cake is soft and green in colour. This cake is delicious. Thank you so much for your explanation.
