Bleeding-rock sap was the sweet and sticky crimson sap of the bleeding rock organism native to the planet Li-Toran. It was the primary element of the liquid diet of the insectoid Melitto species that also lived there, who harvested the sap on the world's surface. Melittos who left Li-Toran used special survival devices that made sweet-smelling liquids that simulated the sap by distilling local foodstuff.
During the culinary tour of the galaxy that he took between 34 ABY and 35 ABY, the Artiodac chef Strono Tuggs visited Li-Toran to collect some of the sap, requiring him to wear environmental gear due to the world's noxious atmosphere. Tuggs then used the sap to sweeten individual cornbreads to create Melitto Sap Cakes, a vegetarian cake that he included the recipe for in his third cookbook, The Ultimate Cookbook, which was published in 35 ABY. In the book, he professed to not understanding how Melittos consumed the sap as they had no visible mouths.
Bleeding-rock sap was first mentioned in Cyphers and Masks, a 2018 supplement for the Star Wars: Age of Rebellion roleplaying game published by Fantasy Flight Games. The 2023 recipe book Star Wars: The Ultimate Cookbook, which was written by Jenn Fujikawa and Marc Sumerak, uses honey to represent the sap in an out-of-universe recipe.
