Abstrakt: One of the interesting studies conducted on the Malays and the cluster culture is related to the field of gastronomy or the study of food and its relation to culture. This paper aims to describe the influence of cluster cultures in the production of traditional Malay cakes found in Malaysia, Indonesia and Thailand. Based on the qualitative analysis method of the applied ethnographic field, a total of 30 respondents were selected, with 10 respondents from each country and the data were collected through the snowball method. The results of the research collected through interviews with respondents from the three countries, as well as additional input support from previous studies have shown that the preparation of traditional Malay cakes in the three countries are produced based on motivations that are very close to Islamic legislation as the basis and cultural similarities as well as the backbone of the nation. This principle is translated through the aspects of motive, form, function and philosophy of the production of the cakes. This finding is proof that our cultural heritage is rich in the philosophy that underlies every behavior and action, and should be documented as an effort to preserve the heritage of the universal Malay cultural tradition.
