Longmen Rice Cakes

Last updated 2026-11-09 — Longmen rice cakes are made from high-quality winter rice and carefully selected peanuts as the main ingredients, with salt and sugar as supplementary seasonings. They are finely crafted and are beloved by consumers for their “thin crust, generous filling, crispy texture, well-balanced seasoning, and fragrant aroma.” Currently, there are two types of Longmen rice cakes: “Yongqing Cake” and “Lantian Cake.” The Yongqing Cake is slightly larger than a teacup rim, while the Lantian Cake is about the size of a coin. They come in both paper box and canned packaging. In 2001, relevant quality inspection departments in the county established quality standards for Longmen rice cakes, which helped boost their sales. In 2002, the total sales volume of rice cakes in the county exceeded 10 million pieces, with products mainly sold to the Pearl River Delta region and exported to Hong Kong, Macau, Taiwan, and other areas.
