Javanese is rich of philosophy in its daily life. Even food is full of it. Lupis is one of those.
Lupis is a cake of goutinous rice. Its stickiness symbolizes close relationship. Its shape which is triangle represents love triangle among God-Messenger-Human, Divine-Human-Nature, me-you-others.
What a nice cake to enjoy! Physically, emotionally and spiritually!
