As far as I know only Jamaicans have it in a DUMPLING form. Its a quick bread. Dough Rolled out and fried in oil. Tends to puff out when cooked. In Guyana dumplings mainly go into soup.
starboy is right. trini is not dumpin...thats nasty lol. trini is a fried dough
aye don kno wah we trini call it
st lucians call these bakes too. and im sure dominicans aswell
Bajans call it bakes as well
St.Vincent call it bake or fry dumpling
A very large one we call it Dough boy
Can someone put a recipes for Bajan Bakes as mine went down down in the grown wit mi granmotha.
We call is Bakes here in Dominica too
Is coconut bake/pot bake the same as bulla cake??
RE: the definition. Not all bakes are fried. While fried bake or "fry bake" is common in Trinidad, the dough is also simply baked in an oven or on a tawa/griddle to make "bake". One can also add coconut to make "coconut bake". There is also pot bake...which as you can guess is when the dough is cooked in a pot.
It’s a ticker version of puri
De only ting we put DUMPLINGS inna is soup or metemgee✌. And we call bake "Float bake" also "Pot bake"
A few comments mention that Guyanese only put dumplings in soup. Not so; we make fried bake just like what's pictured too.

To all you Guyanese, don't forget saltfish and bake either
