With the pan off the heat, mix in 70g of the Cardamom sugar and add the rest of the cold coonut milk.
Pour in to your chosen mould and chill to set in the fridge for a few hours.

Add whole Yka Leaves to the syrup whilst whisking until the syrup turns bright purple. Cook for 20 seconds only. Pass through a sieve or filter and allow to cool before using.
