Sugar Rings
Sugar Rings, anciently called "Juni" (pronunciation), are a snack brought south by migrants from the Central Plains. In Dongguan, the recipe has evolved from using wheat flour to glutinous rice flour. Traditional sugar rings are not made with molds but are hand-rolled into long strips, then pinched into ring shapes, resulting in a firm texture when eaten. The shape of the sugar rings features large rings encircling smaller ones, interlocking in a continuous pattern, symbolizing unbroken continuity and everlasting life.
