Naxi Pao Sugar

Naxi Pao Sugar

　　　　This product has a history of over 100 years. It is made primarily from high-quality white sugar, glutinous rice, and sesame seeds. Each piece of Pao Sugar has 8 pairs of symmetrical large holes and countless tiny holes on the cross-section. The holes are perfectly round, resembling a foam board—hence the name “Pao” (meaning “foam”) Sugar. After the liberation, with advancements in science, new techniques were introduced in the production process. In addition to preserving the original style, the sugar is now whiter, crispier, and more crumbly. It does not stick to the teeth or leave an aftertaste, and its shelf life has been extended.
