We’re thrilled to welcome Cha Pang, a brand new addition to our event, introducing a dessert you won’t find anywhere else in Western Australia: freshly made Thai Coconut Pancakes, also known as kanom krok.
The heart and soul behind Cha Pang is rooted in sweet childhood memories and a lifelong craving for food that creates connection. Growing up in Thailand, Cha Pang’s founder fondly remembers watching street vendors craft crispy coconut pillows fresh from the sizzling griddle, handing them over with a smile.
Wanting to bring a piece of that tradition to WA, they began their journey with one special dish: the Thai Coconut Pancake. With a food truck still in the works, they’re currently sharing these secret Thai desserts through their stall—starting with kanom krok, a treat almost no one else offers in WA.

At Cha Pang, authenticity is everything. Each pancake is made with traditional ingredients flown in from Thailand: coconut milk, rice flour, and coconut sugar from the highest quality brands. Fresh toppings like sweetcorn, pumpkin, spring onions, and taro are carefully prepared on the morning of each market day, ensuring every bite bursts with fresh, rich flavour.
The magic happens in a special cast-iron pan, where the base batter bubbles and crisps to perfection before the sweet filling batter is poured in. Watching the pancakes cook is part of the experience—the sizzle, the golden edges forming, the irresistible aroma.
Preparation is no small task—often beginning the night before the market opens—but it’s all worth it to see the joy these little pancakes bring.

Building Sweet Connections

Every market day brings new memories, but a few moments hold a special place in Cha Pang’s journey—like the loyal customer who drives from Bunbury almost every week just for these coconut pancakes, or the young boy who couldn’t resist coming back three times for more.
And on especially magical days? They sell out hours before the market even finishes—a true testament to the love people have for these little bites of happiness.

Right now, Cha Pang is a passion project, balancing life, work, and the growing dream of a full-time food truck. But the vision is bigger than pancakes—it's about taking curious foodies on a journey through the hidden treasures of Thai desserts.
One taste and you’ll understand: this is just the beginning.
