  1. If its Thai, it sounds like Kanom Chan (or Chun).

    The main ingredients of kanom chan are flour, sugar, and coconut milk. In terms of the nutritional benefits of this dish, it provides energy-giving protein, carbohydrate and fat. The colors used to embellish this dessert are completely natural and include colors derived from a variety of herbs as well; among the various colors, for example, there is purple, obtained from the anchan (butterfly pea) flower, green from pandanus leaves, and red from krang (Iac). Thus, there are added nutritional benefits from the use of herbs as well.

    But it could just be Vietnamese Mixed Fruit in Lemongrass Syrup:

  2. It's called "Yok Manee".  Recipe is below - the green color comes from pandanus juice and the dish can have fruits added to it.
